Speculations, speculations...

First there were these suspicious NPGMC carpets on the last 2 promo videos: what was the hint exactly? NPGMC was shut down SEVEN years ago, why would it suddenly be mentioned in promo videos?

And now... "2 C the rest of Donna's audition holla at ya girl! We've got bootlegs 4 daazzzzzze every good thing in the vault... Coming 2013"

What is that supposed to mean exactly?

Not to mention that in theory Prince gets the rights to For You by the end of 2013, so an official website to promote yearly remasters with an online shop for additional vault material would make sense, wouldn't it?

Is this all more cryptic stuff leading nowhere or is there a real, interesting, new online project in sight?

Opinions?

Why?

P cannot run a wesbite. We all know that.

Life membership, remember?

Or don't you?

The NPGMC carpets are simply just still covering that area in Paisley Park...

I wouldn't read anything into it..

They probably haven't been replaced, cuz its too expensive.... who knows..

Do u believe in fairy tales and princes?

It would be awesome though if it would become reality...

CARPETS too expensive for a multi-millionaire?

Maybe it's just still there but filming in this room and showing it so obviously has got to mean something, maybe only a blink to old fans but it's there on purpose.

Now I don't know nothing so let's keep believing in fairy tales

It is not Christmas yet.

Santa is still awaiting his certificate of airworthiness and his deer have to be cleared for quarantaine.

Yes, I saw the video snippet where that was discussed. And that was just for Australia.

W.r.t. the NPGMC: I do not think that reality allows us to have anything but hope.

There's no grounds for expectations.

Did you notice what the man is doing?

He's helping some singer get an album out the door but forgets about the physical media so these will be late.

In the same time he's doing his own single. A tiny bit of promotion via appearances, a video clip, and some mixes are made. Physical media does reach us.

Then he throws out some band members and replaces them by girls. Some of them freakishly grinning.

He leaks a 30-second snippet with less than 30 seconds of music from some new song mentioning a tool. (did we miss the glass cutter?)

Rumour of an appearance at some German game show circulates. Nothing confirmed yet.

And you think that amidst this confusion we can see a path of a cool new album that he will sell via the normal retail channels, that he will promote feverishly, that he will actually play songs ffrom in his own concerts.

To top this off you expect him to pamper some fans in return for some fiat paper rectangles.

How reasonable is this looking back at the trends?

Oh, I found that video once again.

And remember, that is just for Australia...

Can we please put a on this?
