Where is MTV,VH1,BET? Where is E! Entertainment and The Media in the states...to cover how PRINCE is selling out Arenas in OZ?

I'm so PROUD of PRINCE!
He is proving once again, how huge of a superstar he is despite...Multi-million record sells and Mainstream popularity...that he can still fill up arenas...and make an impact on the concert stage...this is history in the making for PRINCE, 10years into the INDIE Music Scene...selling 1000$ tickets and making millions on tour to 12,000+ seaters...without the WB or some sort of HIT RECORD!

Prince is certainly doing his thang!

u gotta luv it!

go get them prince

Wowsa, I never knew he was playing venues THAT size!

This is 4 the Aussies who bought 'em

---

"Treat 'em mean and keep 'em keen" must be Prince's formula for success downunder. After 11 years, fans here are desperate, hit record or not.

unfortunately, american critics don't realize there is a world outside of their view. they think america is the end all and be all.

NPD313 said:

wow...I hope ol' P don't F*CK this up!

NPD313 said:

EXACTLY. And others following suit. Aussies have waited HOW LONG? 4 this gig? However, the US & Canada had MOSTLY SOLD OUT venues too, & probably will again when he tours here. It's a smaller fan base, but the fans that do "GO", have mostly been with him "forever" & most likely ALWAYS will! I cant see any separations or divisions among fans at a prince concert. We R all there 4 a purpose & thats to see the "best", most entertaining, talented musician of all time, IMO. Not a show like it anywhere!

This why I stopped listening or caring what the media says. It doesn't matter.

Forget the media and loke some else here said, American media thinks nothing about outside...not even the other America's.

No matter what people say, Prince was, is, and always will be a legend in music. Nobody can take that away from him.

Fuck Mtv and the lot of them! Prince is king!

They havent seen him for over a decade...they'll tire of him soon enough.

NPD313 said:

That is GREAT news.I gotta take my hat off to him for that.

Just don't try pulling that exhorbitant crap when you hit Europe P.

1) OZ doesn't have superstars like Prince touring every week, so it's more of an 'Event' as it would be if he was in Chicago, Birmingham, Lyon, Madrid, etc... no offence. Therefore larger venues.

2) If he was doing 6 consecutive nights, all selling out in 2 hours then it would me more phenomonal.

I personally think it's great that he is getting a huge amount of support and interest, but if i were a news editor of an international music site, i wouldn't consider this NEWSworthy... just my 2 pennies.

Excellent for him. Hey, not every great thing he does has to be reported on you know. I mean, he did get a lot of attention for the Hong Kong event.

damn straight. What the fuck does mtv know anyway?

Nana, you make my pigcasing turgid.

I'ma hav'ta break ya'lls negativity, but I say, "More power to him!"
And for the record, he was in the news today. Check it out: http://www.boston.com/new...n_is_news/

That's okay P!
I still love you.
Don't listen to the naysayers.

They couldn't sell out seats
in their own living rooms.
U go boy!!!

I thought we were supposed to luv unconditionally?

Please encourage the writer of that article. Her email is: rgraham@globe.com

Prince should be shot out of a cannon and into a pile of manure.

IF HE WANTED TO FILL ARENAS IN THE U.S. HE BETTER BETTER PUT THAT REVOLUTION BAND ON STAGE WITH HIM... :NOD:

You know, I really do think Kimberly Day has been a huge influence on Prince. Without her, his whole 'ice-maiden- persona would be non existent. You know I bet she was the mastermind behind the $1000 ticket shafting! I can just hear her now. 'Sharon! What a great Idea!'

He did sell out 10,000+ seaters in Europe, last tour!
