I've never been. He came to Oakland the summer a few months before I became a fan.

I have never been, nor do I think I will ever go to a Prince concert.

I do not enjoy large venue concerts.

Yeah, geez, Prince. Canada's a big friggin' country. You live here part time, you should know that.





just realized what an old map that is

About how I felt. The travel time from London to Toronto by plane isn't a whole lot more than the trip from my city out here on the westcoast to Toronto. It doesn't matter that he bothered to stop in this country if I have no way of travelling across 4 1/2 provinces to get there.

Here's hoping for stops in Vancouver and Edmonton!



Though in all honesty, luv4u, it's probably more realistic to expect a stop in Lotusland than a gig at West Ed Mall. Think P. knows there aren't too many cowboys in the fanbase.

Prince has toured the UK LOADS over the years - my next concert will be number 50 and I first saw him around the same time as you. Granted, its been a while since he last came, but he was here for ONA (which, unusually, I only went to once - hey-ho!).

So the comment that "he don't come to England" isn't quite right. In fact, our American friends here will testify to the fact that they went without a tour for 6 or more years, whilst Europe (esp. the UK - he loves it here) got a P overdose!

my little girl... three years old june 4. i thought she'd be born on the 7th, for a bit.

DAMN Y'all got purple balls up in this mutha

I am one of them. But mostly because I live up here in Finland, and even though I've several times considered going to Stockholm, Sweden for one of his past tours I've never had the chance/the money/or the tickets have been sold out.

Considered that I've actually witnessed Terence Trent D'Arby's crotch from a three-inch distance at his live gig this isn't exactly how I figured it should go when I first got interested in Prince and modern soul-rock.

This board is in danger of degenerating into a long list of people whinging about living somewhere more obscure than America/England.

Before that happens I want sympathy for having never seen the man.

Poor yous! Well, join the club.

I like where I live. Only, it's a little far from Paris when you're pregnant and feeling barfish.

Now I really begin appreciating living in Belgium.

Nearly everything is within one hour drive.
The sea,
Some (low) mountains,
good food,
cities,
the countryside,
and the different concerthalls where all the great from this eart like to strike down

and I forgot: if they don't want to come to Belgium, we're a 3 hours drive away from Amsterdam or Paris.

Should I say, centre of the universe

That's like where my house is... in the country, but 5 minutes or so from downtown Montpellier... maybe 10 minutes from the airport, that close to the sea as well (actually, for the moment I'm right ON the beach).

We have some great concert venues here too - Zenith, and little ones downtown like Rockstore (where I saw The Time back in '97, I think it was)...

I come from a land of wide-open spaces, but there's something to be said for small countries. We're close to mountains and skiing too (2-3 hours from pyrenees and alps).

EDD said:

Exactly,and still we complain about everything that goes wrong in our country
I've seen him 5 times but I missed the ONA-tour,it was sold out be4
I even knew he was comming,it's been since the NPS-tour I've seen him live..
