PrintableI was talking to my husband earlier about this and he said that if the org was hosted in a different country (where the law is more difficult to enforce) we'd be ok!
Don't know if this would work in reality, but in theory....  | |

[Edited 11/6/07 13:06pm] the last i heard, poor zelaira had actually mutated into a big walking human prince symbol, and she's not allowed to leave her home or else she'll get sued by prince's lawyers for looking like his intellectual property.  | |

I'm done with the little man...
Saw Maceo and Marcus Miller last few weeks, met both after the show, great men with a nice attitude towards their fans (yes Prince...fans...not fams). Great concerts without medleys or preaching just pure music from pure musicians. Guess there is more to enjoy under the purple sky... I would gladly say this in Prince's face, but I got bad knees.... | |

Wow, up to page 29? Anyway, I would just like to express my pleasure in seeing someone stand up to Prince and his ridiculous antics. It's difficult just being a fan, can you imagine what it is like having any type of relationship or friendship with him? I'm sure everything must be on his terms. No wonder all of the people from his past are no longer in his life, barring Sheila E. (I wonder how she has lasted this long?)
Anyway, I support this cause 100%. I am convinced Beyonce's career would not be where it is, if she had dark skin. | |

Don't know if this would work in reality, but in theory.... Depends on the country I suppose. Princefams and Housequake (the other two sites involved in the protest) are not US based and they are still getting the same threats, it seems. | |

Outside the gates of Paisley Park. 
Let the Revolution be televised! so far its made the Perez site and EurWeb - http://www.eurweb.com/sto...r38271.cfm [Edited 11/6/07 4:45am] That would be a great idea  . Because we are broke from travelling to London and all the concerts-tickets (even bankrupt after buying the ticket to MPLS) we can all go to his community gardens full of free food and his community centre. There we can get some good old spiritual, physical and psychological nourishment.
At least that's what I read over here http://www.3121.com/blog/?p=113 GUYS WHAT ARE WE WORRYING ABOUT??? | |

Poor Prince..u know there's all kind
of excuses in the vein of the brilliant artist & his eccentricities..but the man is just a greedy motherfucker & a megalomaniac & no amount of mediocre albums of real music by real musicians is ever gonna change that.. 
Now, go sell ur perfume midget. ...Your coochie gonna swell up and fall apart... | |

Everyone talking about him again What better way to generate publicity than to piss off all his fans | |

okay, super serious question here:
if The Daily Show did a segment on prince and PFU tonight and they posted that segment on the comedy central web site, and then someone posted a link on the org to the prince segment, would prince's lawyers sue a) the daily show for talking smack about prince, b) the org for posting a video clip of people talking smack about prince, or c) all of the above? though i guess what i'm really trying to ask is: would i be able to meet jon stewart???  | |

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said: NoVideo said: If Prince ultimately loses this - and I suspect he will - I wonder if he'll go into reclusive pouting mode.
Maybe just retire from the industry and sulk in his studio for hours on end producing masterpieces that he'll take great joy in knowing that nobody will ever hear. That is exaclty what he did anyway. The music never got freed did it? At this point I could care less if Prince drops off into obscurity. I do think he's still capable of making the most amazing art of anybody out there but art has to be his focus and not the pennies he can glom from his fans in this bullshit fashion. While he didn't deliver on his promises, many of them during the symbol years, still there was a lot to be thankful for as a fan during that time. Now I am not willing to stick around for more broken promises and get sued in the process of waiting. Nope, not interested. You are so right and I am so mad at him. And sad. The thing is, he was so über-fantastic in London this summer (those aftershows. I Will NERVER forget the last) and he was so warm and... perfect, that it is difficult to just forget about him. And who knows, maybe he got brainwashed by those JW friends of his, or abducted, and doesn't know about all this ? Guess we forgot about the 3121 vote. We were so happy to have a chance to see him in Paris... | |

You and Prince both go on The Daily Show head on. T'would be entertaining enough to fill during the writers' strike. | |

[Edited 11/6/07 13:53pm] You're like that soldier that got his leg shot off and worries about whether or not the person who fired it, sprained a finger while doing so. What's the logic in that? | |
