Greetings from the Netherlands!! Enjoy the new 5 Prince songs....2009 Prince is Awake and starts off with a lot off good stuff... Get wild and Stay Funky!! Marielle.
Thank you so far it's been fantastic. I can't belive I'm going to see Prince and possibly an Aftershow on my birthday (this makes 15 main shows and I think 14 aftershows in 2 months). It's been out of this world so far. I'll send you your cd's and program soon... I just want to find the best way of making sure it dosn't get all bent up
