Fans of Prince would've been there. Normal people don't care in which order he sang the same songs as the night before. Get yourself a ticket, Rich, I've heard there are plenty left. By the way, "retard" I may be but at least I've mastered the fine art of punctuation. Not bad for a "retard". See "U" later. Prick.
