ROBIN POWER speaks to fans on this thread!!! Her band "The Uptown Dames" is here too!

Hi Folks! I'm back!

I just recently reconnected with Robin Power. She has joined the org and is peresently in the orgs' prerequisite five day waiting period before she can post. Meanwhile, you may ask her questions about her experiences with Prince and Paisley Park etc. and she will answer you soon in this thread. She might communicate through me for a while. She has already started on http://www.prince.org/msg/5/189025

In that thread, Anx asked Robin what her favorite experience was and how she has been enjoying life since then. Answer to come soon.

Liza

For those of you who missed the first saga of these threads from the past year, here is a partial listing of the links. I seem to have lost the link to part 5, so if anyone has that, please help out. Thanks.

I saw on Robin's public modelling profile that she's residing in Chicago these days...has she heard about the monthly Prince party at Berlin nightclub? She should drop in sometime - no big scheduled appearance or anything, just join the fun and dance some month...we'll even request the long version of "Thieves in the Temple"! giggle

Robin, were there ever any test pressings made of material which featured your vocal input? I remember reading about an alternate version of the New Power Generation single with Eliminate The Negative, Oobey Doop. Was this ever pressed as a test or acetate even?

Yeah, I have a question: When's she gonna share "the twins" with us...or rather - ME?! lol


robin says "obviously, you've already had the pleasure of that experience if you link onto my model website. lol That's about as much as you're gonna get. Unless you pick up the videos I did for playboy. One is "Erotic Weekend getaway" the other is "Reawakening your sexual power," and then the "Women of color playboy video."

Robin says: "My favorite experience was the first time I met Prince when I was 17 years old. It was an after party for a concert that he did here in Chicago. More details on an audio recording coming soon.

Robin Power Royal is very interested in informing you about her experiences in life, including Prince Rogers Nelson. She prefers to do it in her own voice her own time and her own words. So please ask the questions and soon you will be able to listen to all the answers. - Love Power"

After much foggy thought, she realized that you are Prince's body guard. I forgot to ask her about Leslie and Derick (she talks a lot and I get mixed up) but I gave her your contact info. [Edited 5/15/06 11:20am]

"All music that I did with Prince I have no clue what he did with it. But I'm sure one day he'll make billions of of it. Like owning the right to the Beatles."

She says she has met millions of people in this lifetime. "In order for me to know who you are, if you did not touch my heard in some specific or special way, then I need to see your face to remember you."

(She doesn't not remember a lot about her past, she says.)

I'm still on the phone with her and now she thinks your name is vaguely familiar but can't put a face on it. Sorry. sad
[Edited 5/15/06 11:20am]


I believe you’re a phony. The fact of the matter is Robin knows these individuals as well as myself very well. Also I sent you a pm this morning with my cell phone number. Have Robin call me; I have a couple of questions that I will ask her to see if she is genuine.

Hey, man - I'm for real. I just edited my post to your first question. She remembers you now. You're Prince's bodyguard. She'll be calling you. Don't blame me for her foggy memory. LOL

In general, Robin tells me that she would rather answer your questions via posted audio files. I will collect the questions and she will record an audio file that I will post for you. This is all becoming a pain in the butt for me, so please forgive me if this doesn't happen very often.

I get a sense that Robin is not really an internet type person. Oh well - at least you get to listen to her voice. biggrin wink

She says she does not want to go to Prince parties anymore.

Leslie was her roommate for a while and Derick was one of Prince's bodyguards, if that is the right "Derick." She says "Hi Hucky! It's me and Liza's my friend - an Uptown Dame." She'll call you after 7.

Cool. Nice to meet you, Hucky.

I know I didn't have her answer everyone's questions. I guess it's been a long time and when she talks to me she really really talks a lot and I can barely get a word in, so i get confused and can't keep track of what questions to ask next. smile It's hard to explain. Anyway, please feel free to ask more questions and she'll hopefully answer all of them on the next audio file.

No - in fact if she hears Prince's stuff on the radio, she'll change the station.

Did she ever consider herself a fan of his music? I'm guessing the end of her work in Prince's employ was less than friendly, and that she's not at liberty to talk about it...but is there anyone from that experience who she keeps in touch with? Does she still like The Time? smile

Oh wow. Thanks for awnsering the question! If I can ask one more...did her view/fantasy change when she met Prince? Sounds like she was ga ga over him...then when she met him...was he everything she imagined him to be?Was she dissapointed? Was he even cooler than she imagined him to be? How did it feel to her? wink
