That's what I said... Prince has NO say on how much tickets to HIS
performance cost?
If the hotel is only trying to recup the money they are paying Prince then
the hotel's prices are not "overpriced," that's just business. Even Prince
& his advisors must have known that $77.07 x 200 tix would not cut it.
My initial reaction upon hearing this newsbit was YAAAY I knew Prince wasn't
a price-gouging capitalist! But I'm sure the story is way more complicated,
and implicates EVERYone involved.
