Prince doesn't have time to muck around. He announced his Australian tour merely a month ago and is going to be here, uh, this week. He ain't no One Direction, that's for sure, i.e. selling tickets 18 months in advance. Pfft. Those kids haven't seen anything yet if they think the coolest people on the planet have landed already.

He conjures purple rain and has the odd ability to make doves cry, but somehow he hasn't made touring Australia his number 1 priority. He hasn't been on our soil since 2003 and is now as old as our dads. That doesn't matter though, because this absolute, ultimate musician is going to be in this very city this week and next. Prince has sold over 80 million records and stands to be one of the most influential music acts of all time. Not only that, he can play over 11 instruments, an accomplishment that has made his songs that much more iconic

He is funky and still sexy and his 360 degree show is set to blow our faces off. The artist formerly known as Prince, now known as Prince, is a musical powerhouse that made us party like it was 1999 before and after the fact. He has a symbol made especially for him. He has won an Oscar. His real name is Prince. I don't know how we can spell it out to you any more than this: you need to see Prince before you die. He's going to play all of his hits and goddamnit, you better saddle up for the ride of your life in your Little Red Corvette.
