i just hope they have more food on the grounds of the Park...I can respect Prince being a Vegan, but I needed something more than a Portabello Mushroom sandwich to fill my stomach.

Try going to Beyerly's Grocery Store. They have Great Take-Out!

Purple Slave asked:
The Park is not open 24/7, so what about other recreational costs?

There are no other recreational costs...after partying till 5am all you want to do is go back to your hotel and sleep for a few hours, and then go back to the Park..last year proved that you'll never know what will happen during the day at Paisley...Prince was all over the place during the day.

woops - sorry pslave .. it was the atlanta hat guy ... sloppy editing on my part

take what I said for what you will, fact is Bob, nice to meet you =), Im speaking in costs RELATIVE to what HE has to spend for US to be there... Its not that I wouldnt dish out the money, I would, I just dont believe members(his bread and butter) all around should be charged 250. 150 is reasonable. but spending "vacation" (which I did for the last 2 years at previous celebrations) with Prince and the fams(which i will miss more) is less important to me now, beacuse I watched his trend of having concerts and "Celebrations" to make money then for the rest of the year, its not his problem.

Anyway, the point is, We all love Prince, and supposedly he loves us back right? thats why he "invites" us over?

Hes calling us "family" for Pete's sake!! My complaint is NOT about having an expensive vacation(which some people assume was my complaint cause i said "i aint gonna run myself broke") My complaint is you dont charge the ones who love you the most ("family") to see you at HOME.

I posed a question, not an encouragement. what gain would I have from people not going?
Apparently, you're going, so I "encourage" you to have fun =) Oh and have some for me too! =D

Eye will probably post this a few places, although Eye usually frown at CROSS POSTERS...Eye would encourgae any1 attending the Celebration 2 consider sending something like this 2 the website:



High, Just wanted 2 give some more feedback on General Admission...at the 3 One Nite Alone concerts Eye attended, there was much BREAKING IN LINE,despite the attempts at certain fans TRYING...and Eye just mean TRYING 2 organize...also, at BOTH the 2000 and 2001 celebrations, many people just walked 2 the front, and found a friend, infuriating many who had been in line 4 over an hour or more. There should b some kind of official sign in 4 those who show up early 2 line in. SOme kind of NPG Club sign in, where u have 2 show ID, and Celebration pass, and THAT WILL B YOUR SPACE IN LINE..any1 wanting 2 get their WIFE or GIRLFRIEND or BUDDY in line, will have 2 arrive with THAT PERSON...and go back 2 the end of the line 2 walk in with a late arriver...

Please consider passing this info 2 the organizer of this year's celebration. Thank U.

So is it $250 or nothing? I mean, what about NPGMC members who can't go the whole week? Any word about a daily price?

Yeah you wouldn't... but if you put down all your prince cds and listen to music outside of the purple court, you probably would.

Jazz/Blues is where Prince is going with his music. He hasn't stopped rockin, or funkin, but this is where he's goin. Some won't wanna go I guess, but don't sleep. Rachelle Ferrell commands upwards of $80 a pop. So don't discredit her cuz it's not your kind of music. Just admit your ignorance and either be quiet or learn more about her before passing judgment.

understand that clearly the genre of music played throughout is going to tilt heavily on jazz.

But I can already hear the whining that's going to take place. "... it was CRAP....They just played a bunch of jazz!".

Why would they name this event XENOPHOBIA?

Hey I paid for a whole week last year and only went three days. It's all or nothing I guess.

YES!!! I agree!! The line cutting has to stop!!! People will be all buddy buddy and try to cut in. Let's send a message over to NPGMC and maybe, just maybe it will be handled.
