Now that the concerts over, have any of you changed your minds or feelings about Prince and the way he feels towards his fans?
[Edited 9/26/07 19:23pm]



He's not the kind of person to hate his true fans - he rates them to the full extend. And although I have loved him since I was 11 (1980), I love him even more for waving at me and telling 'there's a party on the left' when I waved my large purple scarf during the aftershow.
I love Prince and chocolate - in that order

This is s ludicrous statement - based on nothing.

Prince does not hate his fans. He has just given us 21 nights of pure joy,charging only £31.21 a ticket and giving us all a free album.

He was having a ball on stage and loved the reactions he was getting from us in the audience. The interaction between Prince and his audience is second to none. There is a great two way respect and lots and lots of love. heart



lets put it this way....WE...THE FAMS LOVE PRINCE.....thats all that matters right?

Tell it like it IS, bruthas and sistas.
Prince don't hate his fans and his fans don't hate Prince.
The party people gather around THIS.

The rest is called 'When Haters Cry'

I think there has been alot of made up stuff written about Prince.

Dont believe the hype, 'dont sleep' as Full Force once said.

Most journalists make stuff up when theres a lack of imformation, Prince knows this he even included this as a story line on Gold album.

My view of Prince? from the shows i went to and the aftershow, that man loves his fans and enjoys being amongst them, he happily walked thru the crowd for his encore holding his hand up for everyone to touch him (my husband included!!)

He made loads of eyecontact with fans and pointing to people in costumes, hats, wigs etc, turning the lights UP all the time. The only reason for that is to SEE the crowd.

I think hes a funny guy who enjoys the company of like minded people.

Yeah, man. Anybody who coulda come out of the O2 any night with hate in their heart really shouldn'ta gone in.
But it doesn't matter.
All the talk of how many casual fans were there was right but they sho ain't casual now. So many friends and acquaintances have called me, emailed me, pulled me aside in the pub with the same question after they'd been to the O2. Usually something like:
'Hey..you're big on Prince. What album should I get to start to catch up?'

I definitely don't think he hates the fans.

There were low points when I almost gave up being a fam because of what I considered to be his comtempt for us (the "Chaos & Disorder" album and the handling of his son's death) but on reflection I felt these had more to do with his perceptions of his record company & the media.
.


what the hell has how he handles a personal tragedy got to do with us the fams?
I think he likes his fams when performing as he loves the interaction but other than that, he doesn't know us but we know all about him and his life, must be weird for him it would freak me out. After all hes musically talented and likes to share that, don't think hes ever said he wanted to be everyones friend. I was annoyed at the NPG website closing when we'd paid for it,but all is forgiven now after an amazing summer!! smile

How he handles a personal tragedy shouldn't have anything to do with the fams, unless you start making public statements/interviews which are blatantly untrue (regardless of the reason).

As I don't think we should rake this one up again, lets just leave it at that, and let me say I'm sure all us orgers love Prince, and as long he makes us happy, who cares?
