Did iTunes Goof Reveal Prince As Secret Live Earth Performer?

6/28/07, 4:16 pm EST

Prince

So, the iTunes homepage is now featuring this nifty little Live Earth playlist “packed with a hot track from every artist on the bill” according to the accompanying blurb. In addition to songs from Madonna and the Chili Peppers, curiously, “Purple Rain” is track four. The funny part? Prince hasn’t been announced for the event. Our theory: Organizers have mistakenly leaked one of their “surprise headliners.” The singer, whose album Planet Earth comes out July 24, would add a little oomph to the New York lineup, which includes The Police and Kanye West, but kinda drops off after that.

Was watching last night while MTV was broadcasting - It was horrible they didn’t stick with any act to even watch one complete song as they surfed the world looking for the “C”RAP that they so love and couldn’t find any…. too bad so sad.. the world is findind class with it coming together for the common good.

In addition to the Macy’s and the Target Center shows on 7/7/07, Prince has announced an afterparty at the First Avenue nightclub. The club that made him famous and the club he hasn’t played at in 19 years. It’s the hottest ticket in the Twin Cities in years.

So if there was a Prince simulcast at LiveEarth, it could be from Macy’s, it could be from Target Center, and it could be from First Avenue! That would rock!!

NY looks good IN SPITE of Kayne West (who cares about this guy??)

DMB, Bon Jovi, Roger Waters, Police, John Mayer…this is the BEST lineup of all cities by far. Prince will just be icing on the cake.

Are they gonna show this thing on TV or will it be another lame NET broadcast that nobody will watch?

On a weekend I am not going to sit at my desk and watch internet TV for more than 5 minutes

It’s Candy Perfume Girl, not Candy Parfume Boy.

Add “oomph?” What about Roger Waters, Dave Matthews, Bon Jovi, Smashing Pumpkins….it isn’t the 80’s silly rock journalist wanna be

WTF? | 6/29/2007, 7:56 am EST

Drops off? DMB, John Mayer, ROGER WATERS, Bon Jovi….What the F are you talking about? The New York lineup looks great

The concert in Minneapolis was supposed to be part of the Live Earth thing but…I don’t think the promoters knew how to sell it right to the public.

Prince is probably the artist that Live Earth needs to ROCK officialy

Jay | 6/28/2007, 6:52 pm EST

We can hope! Prince will be the best thing about that show!

Josh | 6/28/2007, 5:28 pm EST

How can Prince be performing at this concert when he is performing at Macy’s in Minneapolis at 4:30 p.m. 7/07/07 and then at 8:30 p.m. at the Target Center in Minneapolis?

Wow, that new save-the-Earth song by Madonna is total trash! ( They have been giving her too much freedom in the songwriting department lately, and it’s backfiring! ) She should just go with “Candy Parfume Boy” — that song is cool — but of course she should re-do the lyrics, to fit the theme, if that’s possible.

Prince looks like a Lebonese penis in this picture

Timroc | 6/28/2007, 4:31 pm EST

And don’t forget 07/07/07 in St. Paul, or 07/07/07 in Mpls. at the downtown Macy’s store…..

JASON | 6/28/2007, 4:31 pm EST

Prince is performing in Minneapolis that day so I wouldnt count on it.

Live Earth | 6/28/2007, 4:28 pm EST

Prince will play…he has privately confirmed this but it won’t be announced until the day before the show.
