NPGMC AND CLEARCHANNEL ANNOUNCE WORLD TOUR 2003/4

The NPGMC announced today (Fri 19th) that clearchannel is once again teaming up with Prince to launch a world tour starting in Melbourne. So watch this space 4 further tour dates.
Its strange though that the NPGMC is using clearchannel when the digital garden accused them of being 'official scalpers'. They'd better delete that if they want to be sponsored LOL

I should be in my Bart mood:
http://www.enquirer.com/e...sound.html
Article which explains how Clear Channel has contributed to the homoginazation of modern radio - but I guess that Prince knows this already..

Gotta step in

Prince is trying to use the positive aspects of Clear Channel. There is benefit to such a service.

As an independant artist, the dynamics are a little different.

Of course, his annoucements seems to be propoganda to revolt against CChannel, but hey...it's his choice in the end and shit like this isn't something to get all nutz over. It's not like hypocrasy is limited only to the NPGMC

Still it's nice to know, when our bodies wear out, we can get another

Cheers thanks for the link fella. Not the most obvious place to advertise a new world tour you have to admit Freak'.

Let us hope he delays it 'till I get a new pay injection!
