Prince and I met in 1983. Prince said, "Thank you 4 the rose." And my breath was lost. I couldn't say a word...I just smiled.

dON'T LET LIMEBANANA SEE THIS

hurry hide







run!!!!!

If you have to do something kicking and screaming and tearing down others with your "self love" words- maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.

I also got the chance to meet him in Vegas during 3121, about a year ago exactly

Close call,but not yet.

Glad you got to meet him!! I'm happy for you!

4EVER

I've met Prince on 4 occasions.

First he gave me ride. Second it was an autograph and hand shake. Third was an arguement about his behaviour, forth was a friendly how you doing/been keeping type chat.

Guy is a musical genius....but in person, he is mostly arse.

He is very very small, and its true he does smell nice.

I was lucky enough to met him in the early 90's, (back in the day when after parties were on a need 2 no basis), we were offered to tag along with these guys - dont no who they were, but they worked for prince. so we more or less jumped on em and they took us 2 the venue where the party was!! Well 2 say the least, we were on the dance floor all nite dancing next 2 himself and the band - 1 of my best nites ever!!

No I havent ever met Prince! I dont think I would live to speak about it if I did. My heart would probably stop beating!

Yes, I've met him once so far, when he officially became Prince again

Oh, my... If I ever got the chance to meet him, I'd probably make a fool of myself.

I got to meet Prince when he was in Australia in 2003. 20 of us got to meet him before the concert and sit with him and some band members and chat for about 20-30 minutes. It was great and he was very humble. As we entered he was waiting at the door to greet us and shake each persons hand.

After the time was up, the 20 of us took our seats for the concert, on stage!! That's right, our seats for the show where on stage! Most of the time during the concert we were with Prince in the middle of the stage dancing at his request.

To be standing right next to Prince while he was singing Purple Rain and playing habibi is one of the coolest things that I have ever been able to do, and a memory I will cherish forever!

One minute they want peace……

Then do everything to make it go away.

When he's in Houston, he lives not too far away from me. I figure I'll run into him sooner or later.

"Guitar" on Leno is the greatest performance in the history of rock ' roll

Second Funkiest White Man in America

It sure is nice having adults running our government now

I've never met him but did see him in concert once.

Also, why is one of the guys yelling “Purple Rain” like it’s fricking “Freebird”?

Once upon a time, in 1995, my friend met him. It was at an aftershow. He then called her at home the next night for a chat. Guess what happened then? She was flewn 2 next gig, where he gave her a birthday cake & a tootsie pop. They drove around on his bus after the gig, sharing stories. He gave her a big, long hug goodbye then she left his bus & went back 2 her hotel. She said he was a complete gentleman & very, very mannerly. He said he call her after the following nights gig & guess what? She is still waiting- 13 years & 2 days later!

met him at the release party 4 GCS2000

at the press conference where he changed his name back 2 prince

a few times at paisley including the xenophobia celebration
