3121.com is free to make any requests they wish to make and indvidual site owners will comply or not as they see fit and that's all there is to it. However... I will say that what I think is totally uncalled for is anyone using the current situation in any way to vent their personal vendettas against Housequake or any of the other principals involved. In my opinion that is something the Org should not tolerate. Good points and agreed, the org is not about to change their stance, but I do think it is pathetic how they caved into Prince's request when nothing illegal is taking place with photos, etc. I never thought this place would cave into his demands, but it's obvious now that some mods here are goose-stepping harpies who would gladly comply with whatever Prince requested of them. Utterly pathetic but I'd venture to say, with the org and it's "mods" -- get used to it. No hard feelings. | |

Don't you think we'll get something to much better if we abide by their wishes. I can't imagine that in his waning years Prince would "do" us. It seems that he's preparing for a long retreat and wants to make us as happy as possible. I just praying to see him in the states one more time. | |

If prince can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen!!!!! He wants us to pay the money to see the shows, and than to obey his every command. Get real, he can't control everything, as much as he would like too. I am so please to read that most of his fans are not mindless sheep who follow his every word. | |

Whys he even bllody arsed? We know what he looks like, a couple of photos to remember our special night when we watch him isnt a lot to ask for is it | |

Guess if you're outnumbered by the numb-minded, what else can you do but "agree." Never thought Housequake.com would have more integrity than this place, but again, it goes back to some of the mindless mods that are about here. Hopefully Prince won't request that people no longer discuss his pathetic albums, else I'm sure his legion of 'fam-mods' will see that the org complies, and complies within minutes of his request. No hard feelings. | |

We r respectfully asking fans and fansites 2 abide by the per4mers and the management’s wishes… please do not use cameras of any sort 2 record Prince’s per4mances at the O2. We r respectfully asking the fansites not 2 host any of the photographs obtained in this manner. Thank u 4 ur support. Posted by 3121 ~ 2007 Tour http://www.3121.com/blog/?p=75 Pathetic. yes indeed. the only thing i can think of that might be mildly irritating is for a performer to be onstage and be hindred by the constant flashing of photocamera's but beyond that i don't see anything wrong with clicking some pics.. it's free promotion anyway with that stuff on youtube. geez. prick  and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Does this have to do with the photo that shows him falling on the ground when a fan in the O2 was getting to excited when she was pulled on stage to dance? I love Prince and chocolate - in that order | |

This has to do with the pics that people take at the 02 performances/aftershows. Read again the request from 3121.com: "A Respectful Request… We r respectfully asking fans and fansites 2 abide by the per4mers and the management’s wishes… please do not use cameras of any sort 2 record Prince’s per4mances at the O2.

moderatorI understand Prince's wishes; it's his name, his face, his income.
On the other hand, when you get blinded by flashes EVERY night, would it not occur to Mr Nelson that people really wanna see pictures of him of the concert they attended? 1+1+1=don't take my picture? Even though I saw a beautiful official 3121 live picture on 3121.com, I would love, love, love to see more. Most people are up on the tiers, so why not release a nice collection of pics, like the ones he released during the Musicology tour? Like 5 pics at every concert? As a nice bonus to all the peeps that payed alot of $$$ to see him play.  Or $, Mr Nelson? Sometimes I feel like he faked that song. And 'Paisley Park'. It aint in my heart no more. It's sorta spilling on the floor. I'm losing the feeling. No matter how amazing "Tutu" live was. Re-connect. | |

 same old princey. he'd be crying if one day nobody wanted to take his picture.
ya know what? you're a celebrity. there is no expectation of privacy at a live event so get over it. | |

Prince's stance on pictures is pure b.s......plain and simple. Music.............is the THANG! | |

While I don't like the tactics that are used when Prince feels violated or ripped off or whatever the hell he is feeling today, I do NOT understand why fans simply won't abide by an artist's wishes that they claim to love and respect. | |

cream72 said: CarrieLee said: Didn't I read somewhere on here that the O2 allowed cameras in it's venue? What's the big deal? I mean I respect his wishes and all but I just don't see why it's such an issue
 The O2 does not allow photos or video recording equipment, it clearly states this on their site. On another note has anyone read housequake recently, they have failed to get the video forum back and they are pissed off, also they have been told to remove the banners/wallpapers cause in short they refused to stop hosting concert photos. On a personal note i dont like housequake the mods are always right and your wrong attitude stinks which is wrong cause a mod isnt suppose to flame a situation sure have your opinion and leave it as that but they seem to force an argument for example they banned 2 people yesterday in the space of half an hour for what i think was flaming users. which at the start all they done was call some of the housequake members ass kissers and then it turned into a right slanging match, all because a couple of members had a different opinion 
also on the subject of photos i think prince is entitled to not want his photo up on any site espeically if hes asked fans not too at the end of the day its his image and fans who think its okay and carry on doing it is just going to spoil the concerts at o2 for the rest of us. So fans take note dont spoil it for the rest just for the sake of a few blurry photos.  [Edited 9/6/07 14:32pm] | |

cream72 said: Wall said: I can't believe how cowardly the org is on this matter. I've always enjoyed how open minded and free speaking everyone is here, so I'm surprised that when Prince says to jump they not only immeditely comply, they beg him to tell them how high. Incredibly pathetic, and I don't just mean on Prince's part, but on the part of prince.org. No i think its sensible and not a Coward as you put it, Prince and his team has requested politely to his fans and the Org has respected that request out of respect to his wishes. What do you want another messed up site like Housequake, people getting bitter and twisted. This IMHO is where housequake as gone wrong by saying to prince and co "we WILL remove the Photo's AS long as you give us something" this is blackmail you dont use that as a bargaining tool. No i think Housquake as gone Too far this time even members have started to leave cause the mods are so arrogant, its do as i say NOT as i do remind you of someone i will give you a clue, his fave colour is purple and im behind him 100% this time [Edited 9/6/07 14:31pm] | |

When I was at the O2 there were a couple of French guys just to the right in the row below who spent the whole show looking at a 5" LCD. They didn't spoil my fun but they were just the kind of twats the message 'This show is for your memories' was aimed at. Come to London and then spend the whole show looking at an LCD?!!!! Someone's gotta try and wise these techno-idiots up for their own good. Share photos of your friends with your friends and leave amateur paparazzi and amateur video productions at the door. As for recording the audio at shows, well I'd like to hear the shows again as much as anybody else but not in 'Mattel stereo' with somebody singing along out of tune.
I support Prince's stand on 'live experiences' as opposed to 'memorex experiences'. You know it makes sense. The rest is just that Harry Enfield joint Kevin and Perry with a whole load of fan(atic)s whinging 'It's Not Fair! Why Can't I do whatever I want whenever I want wherever I want?' The answer, of course is 'Shut up and go to your room!'
