Prince, Great Performer, Even Greater Capitalist

Prince is about to begin his 7 night (non-consecutive) engagement at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood.

Ticket prices are $312.10 for SRO, and $3121 for dinner, table and the show.

It's good to be the Prince.

He's worth every purple penny, way out of my price range, but don't go hating on him just cause he's good enough to earn that kind of dough.

His album "Planet Earth" will be out soon, 24th of July in the US, a week earlier in the UK. According to the wiki for that album, it will include contributions from Wendy and Lisa. That can't possibly be a bad thing. Wendy and Lisa are still pretty great, bought every one of their albums, and saw them in concert around when Girl Bros. came out, and they were great. Mentioned before how much I like the work they do scoring the TV show Heroes, they get maximum effect out of a minimalist score.

Verizon customers can downlaod the track Guitar from the album, just visit his site 3121 and you'll get hit with all sorts of info on all this stuff.

I only have Wnedy & Lisa's first album and The Life came up in the player the other day. Sounded very familiar and it took me awhile to figure out why. Listen to Sometimes it Snows in April from from Parade: Under the Cherry Moon. It isn't exact, but pretty darn close.
