its a shame to have paisley park unused. wouldnt it be nice to have it open again as a museum? he has amazing art and props. so much history there! and lets face it, it is like our graceland! what y'all think?

I wish.

Prince still spends quite a bit of time in Minneapolis, albeit at Paisley Park.

I've been told it's about 50-50 between LA and Minneapolis.

I don't think he will for a while. Minneapolis will always have his heart, it's his home, but I think right now Prince feels L.A. is where it's at. He's opening his home like mad to folks and entertaining them like nobody's business. I think he likes the beautiful weather, and he seems to have gotten out of his shell. In Minneapolis he was all secluded in that Big White Mansion.

OMG great point! It would be a Prince's fan's dream to have Paisley Park turned into a museum for us to go see, and yes, there must be amazing art and props there. It's filled with history and beauty. Yes....it would be like our graceland! Hopefully this will happen one day. I would go!!

Just 2 be clear... I'm not sure if he will ever move back 2 Minneapolis, but my point was that he's there quite a bit, at Paisley Park, which he uses regularly.

Peace.

all that heat in L.A. does wonders for his arthritis.

true. very true. but the local music here is better, but its awesome when hes here and we all benefit from that. besides, paisley park is here!!!

i reckon the place will be let be and the plants will grow through the foundations and the graffiti kids will spray on the white canvas.

Until the council demolishes it and makes way for something new. Like LV vs Coolio.

you funny. maybe theyll move it downtown mpls when they tear down the metrodome!

Prince will like the west coast until a earthquake or fire hit his ass, then back to Minne he will go.
