No one likes a quitter. Lol! It wasn't so long ago that she was being hailed as the "next big thing", voice of a Welsh angel, the next Aretha Franklin etc etc. Oh well, guess its back to stacking shelves for her.

Prince: 'The internet is completely over'

Singer shuns downloading for new album '20Ten'

Mon 05 Jul, 2010

It's ridiculous statements like this that infuriates his fans. This is from someone who only a few years ago won awards for his website, NPG Music Club. Since then his official sites have been very much style over content. He recently shut down his official website. Word to the wise Mr Nelson, you can't keep charging high fee,subscriptions to join, with promises of tons of rare, unreleased material, various other goodies and then give the fans/members little to nothing for their money. In the end even the most die hard get wise which is`why so relatively few signed up for the now defunct Lotusflow3r.com.

Comments (1)

Headline Download? Pah! They were given the headline spot in 2003 and treated their fans with complete distain by pulling out a week before the gig, preferring to stay in the US, recording their album. They should be grateful Download asked them back at all.

Would you rather they perform at the awful warehouse like Earls Court? I think London has needed a venue like The O2 for a long, long time. It is very American, with its hot dogs, and moulded, plastic, cinema style seats but I actually like it.

Metallica admit 'we're bad at 'Guitar Hero''

However, band's new album is being released via game

Mon 08 Sep, 2008

Comments (1)

The above 2 comments show just how ignorant the pair of you are. While other fads and genres have come and gone Hard Rock/Heavy Metal has the most loyal fans. As for being useless at playing guitar, don't show your ignorance just because you don't like this particular type of music. Some of the best guitarists in the world are in metal or rock bands, when you can play as well as some of these guys then you can talk, til then go back to school!
