RonJonSurfer Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Prince bringing purple reign to Vegas LOS ANGELES - Prince fans, fire up that Little Red Corvette and head for Las Vegas: the purple one will be performing there every weekend starting Nov. 10. The diminutive rocker will play Friday- and Saturday-night shows at 3121, a nightclub inside the Rio hotel, according to a Wednesday news release by P R Plus, a Vegas firm representing the club. Tickets for the 21-and-over shows cost $125 and will be available beginning Nov. 2. Prince will also host Wednesday-night concerts at the club by other artists. The Grammy winner, who once changed his name to an unpronounceable symbol, will perform at the club indefinitely, a P R Plus representative said. Prince joins a growing contingent of songsters who have settled in Vegas hotels as regularly featured acts, including Celine Dion, Elton John, Barry Manilow and Toni Braxton.

Jenny Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 If it's Vegas, he can do the buttless pants he wore on one of the MTV awards show some years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Seeker Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Why don't they refer to him as The Artist Formerly Known As Prince in that article? I like that better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farin Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 could be (probably), but I think I read it in some magazine too... or "Tafkatafkap"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel2Velvet Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I always wondered if Prince was his given name; and if so, did his mom yearn for a dog? When he was out playing the neighborhood kids, did she whistle and yell, "Here, Prince!" when it was time for dinner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daslied Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Joke aside, his given name is indeed "Prince Rogers Nelson". Or maybe "Roger" instead of "Rogers". One of those two... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 it IS actually his real name since birth: Prince Rogers Nelson, because his father played in a band called "Prince Rogers Trio" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted November 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Good thing his Dad didn't play with Sabbath or Prince might have been Ozzy Nelson. (You need to be very old to begin to appreciate this joke and that may not even be enough). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I saw the Prince video "Kiss" on VH1 last night, this 80's countdown show, and I forgot how cool that song was. I am a Prince fan, well early Prince, especially when Lisa and Wendy were in the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
