No doubt... A few of us have tickets to see him at a sold out show at the 02 arena in September so I am sure a couple of reviews will pop up on here around that time.

Nessa: It'd be good if I could see Stevie Wonder.
Myles: It'd be even better if he could see you.

Got tix for this can't wait...

As for Prince, I can die a happy man after having seen him as a 12 year old on the Diamonds and Pearls Tour at the Sydney Entertainment Centre...

No show I ever see will ever come close to witnessing the Purple One in full flight...

Big ups to my Uncle Steve who gave me his ticket as a surprise birthday present!
