México?

Antarctica?

Thats how your couch got damaged. I try to take some pictures and one of Prince's body guards came over and yelled "NO PICTURES!!!!!" then he picked up the couch and threw it across the room.

Alaska

and if he ever does, my fammy ass is SO THERE.

So Anxiety, I never come into this neck of the woods much....I'm assuming
you're Anx....how long have you been moderating?

I feel really outta the "loop" now.....

We have a population of 4 million here and hes never came here, hes even only been to Australia once in 1992. We have had Madonna, U2 the Rolling Stones, Outkast, Jay Z, Kanye West but no Prince

Time is just a number when it comes to love and all that.

He just didn't perform one date in Hawaii.

His first Hawaiian Island gigs were in February 1996 after he got married to then-wife Mayte, then returned in February 1997 for a so-called "anniversary" gig (I was there). Then there were the three dates in Honolulu and Maui in December 2003.

Back on topic --- another place Prince has not played is Budapest, Hungary. If he ever plays there, I am so there (just like Anx). Also I would love to see Prince perform in Russia and in South Africa.

Back in the summer of 2001 Prince was to embark on a "Prince: A Celebration Tour," on the heels of the Hit n Run 2000-01 tour and after the first "Prince: A Celebration" at Paisley Park.

But then the tour got scrapped. It included two Alaskan dates -- one in Anchorage and the other in Fairbanks.

One of these days Prince will finally play in cities and countries around the globe. So far he has only performed in cities and countries he knows of and has had great turnouts.

I hope, in time, Prince will finally play gigs in pretty much every country or major city. He still has time. But we all know Prince ... "why should I do that when I could do this?"

Wales!!!

He played in Dublin I do believe.

kpowers said:

Oh yah, he did that with U2, no?

He never came to my neck of the woods: Dubai.

We have had so many big acts here, but Prince didn't come ever.
And I don't think he ever will.

But well I am lucky to have gotten some tickets for his London gigs.... so I ain't complaining.

He's done 5 nights here in Ireland.
Cork 1990, Dublin 1992, 1995 (2 nights), 2002.

Just Bono, in one of those '95 gigs (aftershow). They played the cross together.

Tasmania- the down under of down under

Cheek said:

What's the most eastern city he played? Would that be Berlin? (Stockholm is actually a little more to the east)

I heard about an incident in Italy, now he never plays there again.

Never:
Asia (except Japan)
South America
Mid America
Africa
NZ
Eastern Europe

It seems easier to name the countries he does play in!
Does anyone know about Finland or Portugal?

Crap, he's got some major unexploited potential in these areas!

He should try some wicked place to perform. Sure, Slane castle works as a really nice backdrop for a concert, but what about Angkor Wat? Or like Anx said, Iceland, that would make a sweet concert. It might even serve as inspiration, new experiences, new people. On the other hand, Prince is basically urban, he wants to have complete control, so indoor suits him better. I really think it would be a good challenge for him, leave the safety behind and fight to win over the crowds. Katie Melua now has a dvd out 'concert below the sea' in which she performs on the floor of the North Sea (303 meters below the surface). Sure it's a gimmick, but damnit, he's an entertainer isn't he?

Great thread!
