Prince Amazed To See The Gentle Crowd At His Concert  Prince |
Pop superstar Prince was left stunned during a recent concert in Paris, France - when fans agreed to honour his request not to use camera phones to record his show.
The Purple Rain hitmaker insists on restricting the use of cameras at his gigs because he hates seeing poor quality footage of his performances online - but he never expected French fans to honour his request.
He admits he was pleasantly surprised not to see the glow of a camera phone during his concert at the Grand Palais on Sunday (11Oct09) - and he thinks Americans could learn a lot from the politeness of their French counterparts.
He says, "It is actually indescribable, that much love. They were very respectable.
"We asked that no one used camera phones and they honoured that request, unlike Americans who are so obsessed with technology.
"We don't like to have our concert filmed that way because it sounds so bad and then you give all the footage to somebody like YouTube."
