Thank you for putting it in some context, finally...
Thank you for your first sentence, especially...

Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!

And PS @ NuPwrSoul: I don't even expect the man to record new stuff to make us happy, i just expect him to put something from his massive archive on that site to make us feel better. In this respect, he could go for a 3-year time-out and still satisfy us. Him being "active" doesn't have ANYTHING to do with the site being "quiet", nothing. And yes, you might be right about some content when renewals are in question. But then I HOPE EVERYBODY here knows how to show him a finger...

(quote of this song): Too much haters on the internet !!!

I think it has to be the Black Cloud since the Blue Clouds had white pick-up covers and this one has (probably) black pick-up covers as did both Black Clouds.

do you think maybe, just maybe, that we shouldn't be so eager to swallow every piece of bait Prince throws at the public?

Beatles fans get box sets

Beck fans get new music off his web site for free

Bjork fans get endless singles and remixes and B-sides

Hendrix, Grateful Dead and Doors fans get official bootleg releases

Bob Dylan fans get quality music both old and new

Led Zep fans get multi-DVD concert releases

Michael Jackson and Madonna fans get tons of stuff (albeit not that well thought out, yet they get it all the same)

Pearl Jam and Black Crowes fans get instant concert CDs

Miles Davis fans get endless box sets and lately a 70+ CD/DVD box set with original replicas of album sleeves

and what do we get? please tell me? I joined here to have a voice, I have listened to Prince since the early 80s, saw Purple Rain in Los Angeles when it came out, saw him live in 88 and 92, bought all the music he put out, but never ever any merchandise.

I stupidly joined Scrotusflow3r.com and have basically forgotten about it. I just don't ever sit on a computer and watch Prince videos, wear t-shirts or stand in line to buy a ticket (not for anybody). I just want the new music I love, and it isn't happening,

Guys, that's basically you're saying we already got so much music from the guy that he's fine with charging us money for giving us the same stuff again. I agree it's cool to see him being that productive, but having released 30 albums in the past is one thing, with not delivering anything to paying fans in the present being another.

We got an update from someone who called the gallery who will be hosting The Art of Prince event that will take place in San Francisco in early December.

He even found out the price of the Prince prints. Want to find out? See me after the jump.

When the person called they found this information that I guess is public;

The Prince prints will be going for about $1,000 dollars a piece and there will be a 100 only of each print.

Now, keep in mind, these prints appear to be limited and will also be signed by the artist, Anthony Malzone, and may not be something you are going to find just anywhere. In all honesty, events like these are more for art collectors and say people who collect art of musicians more so than say your average fan, so it is understandable.

Maybe they will have postcards like a gallery did in New York a couple of years ago that featured photos of Prince right before he was releasing records. A great girl sent me some of those postcards a couple of years ago and that was really cool of her.

For those that may not be able to afford the $1,000 dollar artwork, we hear from a funkenbaby in Minnesota that Prince’s latest 3 cd set Lotusflower Lotusflow3r will be sold at Target the day after Thanksgiving for $6.50 and I think it would make a pretty good stocking stuffer.

There will be a 100 of each print and each a $1,000. A lot of stuff is up in the air but when we find out, I will let you know.

Hmm. I wonder with the Cd’s being so low, will Prince get back in the top 10 or maybe hit number 1 this time around? Oh wait. That means Billboard would actually have to count ALL the CD sales this time. Soundscam indeed.-Dr.FB

P.S. Anthony, if you find an extra hanging around after the exhibit, give me a call. It would look great on one of my walls. Just playing

Sweet Jebus, that guy's an IDIOT. Discounted CDs do NOT get counted for charts.

BartVanHemelen said:

since when? CDs are often discounted, especially the week they are released. And those sales certainly count.

Really, Is anyone going to pay $1000 for this? Their not at all impressive. They look like iron-on patterns for a t-shirt.
