Seems as if he is headed in the Michael Jackson "look at me I'm a clown" direction. I think the Mick Jagger "look at me I'm still rockin' " direction is more a apt of a clown comparison. Prince, as "eccentric" as he is never has been as ungrounded and maladjusted as Jackson. As long as he keeps making interesting records (which is no means a guarantee - Musicology was a bitch, the followup a yawner), he can do whatever he wants/needs to do live. Different animals (on both sides of the peerformer/audience equation) altogether. Besides, does anybody think that Tina Turner is too old to still be doing her schtick? Fair enough, we differ on our opinions of the guy. I guess we'll see if Prince still pulls it off like Turner and Mick when he passes the age of 60. I'll be first in line for tickets to the first of twenty fairwell tours right around the corner. Without a doubt Prince will be outdoing both Turner and Jagger easily when he turns 60. He is outdoing them both now . What was Jagger doing at 49 ? Not rocking as hard as Prince . also Prince has already done the trio guitar,bass, drum set up with the album The Undertaker. Which he wanted to release as a freebie to a guitar rag and which Warners prevented him . This was the start of the name change and trying to get out of his contract. Prince jams every night of the year....while guy's like the stones make an album, do a world tour then take off for 5 years to sit on their asses. i wouldn't call that being a musician. For christsakes Prince rented a house in LA and built a stage in the living room so he could put on concert's every night .....does Jagger do this ? NO. I saw the Stones in concert twice last year and they Stink ....( except for Charlie Watts) both Woods and Richards couldn't even remember how to start their own songs . Even Jagger would look back at them ..like what the hell ? Saw Prince 3 night's in a row for Musicology tour ...makes the Stones sound like a bad Holiday inn cover band . Prince had John Blackwell on drums , Maceo Parker ......tight as all hell!

Probably Michael Musto from the Village Voice. Thats him !.......i didn't know whether to take him seriously ? he came across like a clown,he couldn't be serious about the condom ?

The other night on MSNBC some critic named Muso claimed it looked like he was playing in a giant condom and was making a safe sex statement ?.....i dunno ..the whole country is off it's rocker!
