threads like this remind me that the Prince.forum is not a serious site, just some asylum to visit from time to time, to have some fun

The problem with this article is not that they are telling lies, the problem is they are leaving stuff out. Surely the reviewer can point out Prince doesn't dance like he used to do, but he ignores the fact that Prince still does dance, and probably a lot better than the reviewer ever will The reviewer also ignores that Prince is still pulling off a better show than most folks his age. He states Prince didn't play much from the past 15 years, but doesn't mention that Prince played even less songs from the past 15 years in Europe. And Jem may feel Prince mistreated the other celebs and the opening acts, but he doesn't point out that Prince has always had a hard time collaborating and that he at least tries. And please don't forget he sold out the concerts even before the opening acts were known, so he didn't use their fame for his own bucks.
A reviewer is entitled to his or her opinion, but when he doesn't mention both sides of the story I can't say it's good journalism. And even though Prince didn't play his game very smart with MTV, throwing mud at Prince with a biased review doesn't really show that MTV cares about good journalism at all in my opinion. You mean you're gonna actually hear what we play tonight? You're not gonna make up the notes in your mind? | |

I was there last night I did have some issues with Jan. concert compared to Dec 18ths. in Jan he song more of the songs REAL fans know. But I still think something was missing. maby it was the band. If it wasn't for Prince being the star i would have had major issues. I gonna still get more Tix for Feb. | |

What REVIEW of anything have you ever seen that went the way you are saying this review should have gone?
What restaurant review have you seen that went..."The steak was tough, the potatoes were cold and lumpy. I wanted broccoli and they gave me lima beans but hey, at least it's not McDonalds?"
I would totally get the animosity that's being displayed towards the article, if there was something that was false, inaccurate, untruthful, misleading, or dishonest about it but there isn't.
The reviewer just described what happened, in his view. Was his view tainted by Prince's cpmments about MTV? Perhaps but who's fault is that? Really? I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |

This is hilarious. So we should cut Prince some slack for being a narrow-minded control freak when it comes to collaboration? Come on. | |

- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
not all the "selections" are about the gig.

ok, back to school, I guess
SUBJETIVITY + RANDOM, PICKY, PERSONAL COMMENTS THAT ARE IRRELEVANT TO THE QUALITY OF THE GIG

well it is a review, of course, which is subjective by nature. you've chosen to pull the least subjective parts from it. | |

hush, child. you're embarrassing yourself. | |

No, you are. Really. The ability to type doesn't give you the absolute truth, I thought you'd know that by now. How wrong I was...
"you're embarrassing yourself"?? Really, what a shitty way to argue. I had such high hopes for you. (not really)

I don't see anything wrong with the article. It's the writer's opinion. Just a little something for the broken down battered Prince fans to indulge in | |

I think it's sad how some people try to focus so much as making Prince seem as a has been. Reality is he is still a genius and as well as a icon. Just look at the fact that the man still sell out shows and is able to get newspapers, magazines, and store outlets to pay him millions upfront to distribute his new music. So many times people mention he hasn't had any hits on the charts for a while. Really, how many artist his age or his time does? I don't really think he's trying to have any hits anyway, being he releases new music but abandons it like a dead beat dad. It's a shame people just don't acknowledge all he has accomplished. The man has became rich and famous off of music he's written and produced for himself as well as others. Does having a hit these days really mean your a gifted talented artist? I think Prince is comfortable with his success and he should be. Prince is music , while these newer hit making artist are people who probably just care more about fame and fortune than the music. | |

Maybe what he's trying to say is, maybe this has become Prince's day job. The cutting edge Prince we once knew is gone. Now all we have left is a clone that is only good for performing the hits of yesteryear. Very well, I might add. | |

It's a positive review of a Prince concert. GTF over it and stop crying because the reviewer didn't give Prince the printed version of fellatio in it. Not everyone is as obsessed with blowing sunshine up his ass on a daily basis as a lot of the people on a website dedicated to him are. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
I'm still getting over the fact that the reviewer didn't call him a 'diminutive singer' or a 'pint-sized pop star'. That alone makes for a tolerable review, in my book. | |

The article is factually correct. I think people on this thread object to someone shitting on Prince who ain't on prince.org. | |
