NEW YORK (AP) - Prince is the concert tour king. He's in the No. 1 spot on Pollstar's Top 25 tours chart for 2004, grossing $87.4 million.

His 69-city/96-show tour was "by far the biggest tour he has ever done," Gary Bongiovanni, editor-in-chief of Pollstar, the concert industry trade publication, told The Associated Press. "It's kind of a renaissance for him."

Celine Dion, who's been appearing at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas for a long string of shows, was in second place, coming in at $80.4 million, followed by Madonna, $79.5 million; Metallica, $60.5 million; and Bette Midler, $59.4 million.

Other acts in the top 10: Van Halen, Kenny Chesney, Sting, Toby Keith and Elton

The Prince thing totally mystifies me. Purple Rain is the only song I think I have ever heard. Aside from change his name and make a movie what does he do?

[Shecoda]

He did the song 1999, and the music for one of the Batman movies, the one with Kim Basinger as Vicky Vail. Still I don't get it. There are seemingly more popular music figures out there. Maybe they don't tour as much.

He goes thru lots of hot chicks like Carmen Electra.

She even looks good in her mug shot at "The Smoking Gun".

RAsberry Barret another good one

I think he wrote "Nothing Compares To You" sung by Sinead O'Connor.
GAWD I love that song, and Sinead is the only singer alive today who can and DID do it justice.
Just my opinion

Happy HolyDays

Let's go Crazy..Let's get nuts!!

If you don't like
The world you're living in
Take a look around
At least you got friends
I called my old lady
For a friendly word
She picked up the phone
Dropped it on the floor
Sex is all I heard
Are we gonna let deelevator
Bring us down?
Oh no!
Let's go!
Let's go crazy
Let's get nuts
Let's look for the purple banana
'Til they put us in the back of the truck
We're all excited
We don't know why
Maybe it's cuz
We're all gonna die
And when we do
What's it all for?
Better live now
Before the grim reaper
Come knocking on your door
Are we gonna let deelevator
Bring us down?
Oh no!
Let's go!
Let's go crazy
Let's get nuts
Let's look for the purple banana
'Til they put us in the back of the truck
Are we gonna let deelevator
Bring us down?


Try listening to that song..while driving, and NOT wiggle your butt, and feel like your Appolonia in "Purple Rain"

Delia, oh, Delia Delia all my life
If I hadn't have shot poor
Delia I'd have had her for my wife
Delia's gone, one more round Delia's gone

I went up to Memphis
And I met Delia there Found her in her parlor
And I tied to her chair
Delia's gone, one more round Delia's gone

She was low down and trifling
And she was cold and mean
Kind of evil make me want to Grab my sub machine
Delia's gone, one more round Delia's gone

First time I shot her I shot her in the side
Hard to watch her suffer
But with the second shot she died
Delia's gone, one more round Delia's gone

But jailer, oh, jailer Jailer,
I can't sleep 'Cause all around my bedside
I hear the patter of Delia's feet
Delia's gone, one more round Delia's gone

So if you woman's devilish
You can let her run
Or you can bring her down and do her
Like Delia got done
Delia's gone, one more round Delia's gone


oop's That's Johnny Cash........Sorry. Wrong entertainer.

In any event it's a good song. "I used to love her, but I had to kill her", by Guns and Roses is another cheerful little diddy in the same vain.
