2day i bought ONA Live! (in stores now DownUnder)

i already had the music burnt from a mate,so i have heard all that & love it...

but the overall package is plush nod
the book is a plush item in itself.With fan comments,the beautiful photos capturing fans & the whole band (a thing i love about Funkbunny,is he always gives his bandmates as much of the limelight as he gives himself) ... & the WNPG playlist is very cool addition also.

the lil essay on The Death Of Cool: Running On Empty... was a great read...

very pleased & i got my $61au's worth with this.

just one thing 4 the fellow Aussies here,i noticed that there is no Australian Distributor marked on the box or disc.

does this mean that it was delivered 2 Australian retail warehouses straight from Paisley Park?
or is there a middle man here 2 get it 2 the wrekka sto's & then 2 us fans?

would like 2 know smile

peace
heart ,
Joshy

Muses in Adelaide.
which is a leading Edge store.
actally it was $56.45 4 me with my Muses VIP card.

i believe HMV will have it in 2moro for around the same price.
JB HI-FI in Melbourne have it for only $52 (so i've heard)

just don't count on Sanity 2 get it in or even know who Prince is.I notice the prettier the ppl r behind the
counter,the dumber their music mind is.
just cute chicks & good lookin' dudes 2 sell 2 the
teenybopper after-school hangout crowd.

but that's me gettin on the ole' commercialism soapbox,so stop me now!!!
lol

i still can't find it in a shop here in Los Angeles. When is he releasing the album? I'm sure he'll get behind it a and really push it... oh wait. He did his one tv show appearance a few months back, long before I could get the CD? Wow.

Now if they'd just deliver the one that I am expecting from being in the NPGMC club, I'd be happy but I am sill waiting for my copy of Crystal Ball and that ain't on it's way I'm sure.

Bottom line... prince needs someone to see his shit to us. Stay in the studio, record your songs, come out occasionally to sing them for us, but let someone else sell them because you suck at it.

The ONA Live in stores actually has a barcode on the back, whereas the one I got direct from NPGMC does not. This leads me to believe that there was some sort of distributor involved. I saw it for $54.99 at JB Hi-Fi in Brisbane.
