He mentioned POOK during a performance of Life O The Party on the Musicology tour. I'm sure Boris or Lange Bleu and a few others are familiar with it. "Even POOK and them know it's okay". It got discussed to death after the concert, if I remember correctly. But no, POOK isn't Prince any more than we are. But aye, Prince has certainly laughed at his posts, like we have.

I can never tell who is being sarcastic or joking or who is for real. Does Prince really check out these forums?????

Also, do you think that ugly people are God's cruel joke on humanity (like the platypus and the heterosexual) or another form of population control?

ok, BS aside: if prince visits this site, he covers his tracks really well or else he lurks without logging in. i'm guessing that maybe he used to check out the org, but that he can't be bothered these days.

he interacted a lot with "fams" on AOL and through the L4OA site during the mid-90s, but since his breakup with Mayte and the birth of Sam's NPGMC site, i think he rarely makes an appearance anymore outside of a close circle of P-mods and such. he probably got burned-out from that phase in his life and all the "naysayers" surrounding him and them. back then, he was a lot more open to other people's beliefs -- but now he tends to stick with only a certain set of beliefs. the rest of us have been "banished" so-to-speak. his prerogative i s'pose. shrug

Holy crapola!

I was just wondering about this the other day!!!

If Prince were one of the .org-ers, my vote would also be POOK!!!

But, that's just silly, ain't it?

agreed. plus, i just think his way of interacting with folks is different these days. he's pushing fifty and he's a public figure - he probably doesn't have time to mess on the internet like he used to in the mid-90s when the net was new to him and he was exploring all the possibilities of interacting with fans and selling his music online. it's just another thing that he got bored with and left in the dust. i think if there's ever anything new or exciting on NPGMC, it's the result of sam digging to find something within the limited resources allowed to him...and those resources seem a lot less limited when a new record's about to drop.

Anxiety, you need to put this interaction between you and Snap up on the homepage as an EXTREMELY quotable Orger.

seriously
