say what you like about MJ-but if you've seen the latest Q magazine cover-you have to see it to know what i mean. Absoloutley no retouches-quite a brutal cover-yet apparently no retouches were ordered. He was happy with a true representation of himself. Good on him-cuz these pics our guy does-man i hate em'. Sooooo fake  Trying to be funny? Ironic? I love MJ. But, to hold his carved face up, vs. Prince's photoshopped image, as evidence that his is "happy with (his true self)" is laughable. Most celebrities have airbrushed/touched up pics in magazines and promos. A handful take the drastic measures that Michael did to alter their image. "New Power slide...." |

if im ever trying to be either funny or ironic-i'll put it in capitals for you-but as i wasn't-get over yourself.
I commended the guy-i'd rather see what someone ACTUALLY looks like-not what they WANT to look like i may not have chosen the best way to put it-but I'm impressed MJ was comfortable enough with himself to do this-and you get all bold and emotional 
Roll on Tuesday-so you can get it all out already. | |

Roll on Tuesday-so you can get it all out already. 1. I always bold my type. Sorry if you don't like it. I do it so it's easier for me to read. 2. Speaking of easy to read...re-read what I typed. I wasn't getting emotional about MJ at all. I was pointing out the irony of your statement. I wasn't defending MJ, I was commenting on the fact that MJ was never comfortable with his appearance... look at the evolution of his face. Anyways, thanks for leaping to judgement and making a sideways comment about Tuesday. It's one thing to get snarky about internet comments..it's a bit more to misread something and then get an attitude about it. You are friendly. [Edited 7/4/09 19:59pm] "New Power slide...." |

If you think that stating the obvious as response to the obvious is reason enough to call that nagging, bitching, moaning... And the 24/7 thing: Jealous?

gurgi said: You did not even grab half of what I wrote. Typical for that generation I mentioned. Because if Prince would have his act together this would not have happened. Now ticketcorner issued tickets for two events per concert (must be because the ticket limit was 2 per show/card/address/account and people could get double that); they did not communicate nor correct stuff in time when they discovered their errors. And in time is before 14:00 hours CEST 4-jul-2009 here. So that is what I mean with what we might see happen on monday. Really nice... Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill...

See the 'original post'. That was obvious and I pointed it out. Only after that the ignorance accusations you throw around became true. But not from me, since otehrs did the 'yadda yadda' thing, which leads to pure self-inflicted ignorance. What I pointed out is not so obvious since one would have to have been there and seen what went on. I.e.: it is not a Crystal Ball type debacle that hits everyone. But it still is an issue that shows certain qualities, effects of decisions, etc from the event promotor/prince/whoever. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill...

hey Skywalker..
whatever buddy. I kinda expected a 360 degree spin from you. you say my comments were 'laughable'-asked if i was being'funny' which i plainly was not.....and-the feel of your comments was what-open arms - friendliness ?
what are you-a 14 year old-do me a favour!!!!! Im so tired of being jumped on for daring to mention MJ-especially as i have never showed any disrespect to the guy in my comments-plainly some do get emotional-which is cool-but don't deny it. Nothing wrong it- that except when its thrown in my face-then denied I'm not gonna let someone belittle what i say-especially when they completely took it the wrong way-and sorry i didn't type in bold-get some glasses or lenses like the rest of the world-or put in your signature-that the bold type is not rudeness-just a medical condition-oh sorry, i see your already SHOUTING in there too
either way-lets beg to differ cuz it feels like im typing English-and your reading French or something | |

The hotel is incredible expensive, but what do you want when you're stay next to the venue. Furthermore, la Suisse has never been cheap. | |

either way-lets beg to differ cuz it feels like im typing English-and your reading French or something I'll clarify my original post and then let's let it be done. Basically, I was saying that it was ironic and/or humorous for you to mention MJ as being cool with how he looks...because he carved his face to hell, yet doesn't bother with a photoshop touch up. That's all. I wasn't being defensive of Michael Jackson. If anything, I was suggesting that I'd think a retouching via photoshop would be more preferable to a hatchet nose job. Make sense? Somehow, I think you misread me as being way emotional/defensive about Michael Jackson. I wasn't defending him at all. "New Power slide...." |

Here's an English link I found: http://news.theage.com.au...-d8lx.html Prince sells out in eight minutes at Montreux Festival
July 5, 2009 - 3:39AM More than 7,000 tickets for two concerts by Prince at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland later this month sold out within eight minutes of going on sale Saturday, the organisers said. Despite prices ranging between 195 Swiss francs for standing room and 480 francs (442 US dollars, 316 euros) for a seat, and a two ticket per person limit, the shows were fully booked within seven minutes and 58 seconds. Prince is due to play two consecutive concerts on July 18, the closing night of the lakeside festival. The multiple Grammy award and Oscar winner's appearance at Montreux was only announced on Friday, the opening night, following weeks of rumours. Two years ago, 4,500 Prince tickets were sold in 10 minutes, then a record for the western Swiss festival which is commonly nine-tenths booked by the time it starts each summer. The 95 paying concerts over the next two weeks include Steely Dan, Herbie Hancock, Black Eyed Peas, Alice Cooper, Steve Winwood, Monty Alexander, Lily Allen, Wyclef Jean, Marianne Faithfull, John Fogerty, Grace Jones and B.B. King among an eclectic host of top billings. © 2009 AFP This story is sourced direct from an overseas news agency as an additional service to readers.
