Could there be a fee-based website with less information and/or updates? I hardly go there at all and usually just come here for the news. How many people work there? Two?Updates are always mentioned here anyhow.

So true! thought about e-mailing them and asking if could contribute 2 the site, but 'd probably get my head bitten off if did that!

As much as I love the idea of the NPGMC, I really think the site needs to be completely updated. I think he should really concentrate on the business side of the NPGMC more. Get some good people working for you Prince. You deserve it!! I mean, Prince himself should concentrate on making really great music but he should also make sure someone at Paisley knows what they're doin.
Imagine an NPGMC where we could buy rehearsals, soundchecks, tours live on CD or Video? Prince, i think it's amazing what you are giving us all, and we don't want to seem ungrateful, but keep the NPGMC music and bonuses seperate from commercial release e.g Don't re-hash material from year 1...if something is given to your members, don't sell it commercially. We appreciate that we get new music FIRST, but we don't like recieving new music twice.


Update the site, make it really slick, with a downloads section that gets updated with one off downloads all the time as a suprise for members. The CD's are great I wouldn't change that. But I think they should be bonuses for NPGMC members. Prince should still release great albums through one off deals with distributors/labels (like TRC and RAVE) but take time to create those albums.But make them great albums that come out every couple of years. Use the NPGMC as a supplement to fulfill P's and the fams desire for more music.
Trust me, I think a combination of heavily promote Great albums every two years as well as rarities and bonuses from the NPGMC would only increase members. I know it's all coming together slowly, but i think this is the way everyone can be happy.

I hope that there is an NPGMC discussion with Prince at Paisley this celebration.

Even some freaking news or stories would be nice. What was the last member's update? May 9th?

MPGMC may be official, but the org stomps the balls off it for content.

talk to Prince, don't bother the NPGMC. Don't you think they would update the site more often if they could? Think about it. Are they really saying "well, we have all this Prince info that he really wants out there. let's NOT release it and keep the site quiet instead. yeah, good plan."? No. I'm guessing the site accurately reflects what Prince wants shared with the world. no more, no less.
