was there any of you that didn't go to any shows this year 2004 or skip on buying any current music material recorded by Prince?

Stop yelling at me, Daddy!

Daddy? that has a nice ring to it...

Well, I'm the Mama in this bitch...

I spent $$ on Prince this year, but not as much as in recent years past.

***caught a couple of shows this year, naturally got plensty copies of Musicology like anybody standing around 2 of the venues coulda done: still maintain my record of spending no $$$...i actually was given 2 tickets this year(that's new)i was totally amazed when folks talked about the money they spent on the org....wow!!!! no wonder he can afford 2 finance his distractions & denial so well

nope.....not a dime! don't think i didn't try tho..

I bought the oh-so-official Chinese 2-GOLD-HDCD release of Musicology, and the Musicology/On The Couch CD single. Oh and I did buy Lovesexy and Dirty Mind new on CD if that counts.

Hmmm... what Prince stuff I bought this year...

-2 Musicolgy shows (Las Vegas 30th May, Los Angeles 3rd June)
-1 Aftershow (Los Angeles 4th June AM)
-Musicology album (first the download, then bought it in stores)
-Controversy live (download single)
-NPG In This Funky House - All The Critics (download single)
-Magnificent (download single)
-United States Of Division (download single)
-Silver Tongue (download single)
-Cinnamon Girl Xposed (US CD single)
-Cinnamon Girl (UK CD single)
-Jimmy Hendrix: Power Of Soul (CD album feat. Prince)
-The Family (Vinyl album feat. Prince)
-Mavis Staples: Time Waits For No One (Vinyl album feat. Prince)
-Mavis Staples: The Voice (CD album feat. Prince)
-Come On (CD maxi-single)
-Batdance (CD single)
-Sheila E (Vinyl album feat. Prince)
-Purple Rain (UK Vinyl single)

Umm, I think that's pretty much it! Kind of scary

Hmm, a few of my Prince-related expenses (in US dollars):

4 Musicology shows...about $365 for tickets (including eBay scalper premium for one of the shows...not including travel expenses!)

1 sealed copy of the Controversy LP on vinyl inc. the famous shower poster ...$40

Finally bought a copy of ONA...$50

Misc. CD's and d/l's...probably around $400

Misc. merchadise/collectibles...$300 or so

That's, err, over $1,200, and there's more I didn't list but that begins to give you some idea!

On the other hand, if I deduct from that an estimated dollar total that allows for the value of: all the pics and videos I downloaded from HQ ; the joy of dancin' the night away with Prince, the NPG, and the fams at the Musicology shows; and all the fun I had in general all year, I might OWE money!

Just Musicology and Cinnamon Girl CD single (oh and a couple of NPGMC tracks - Silver Tongue etc).

World Tour 2003/2004.....yeah right! Utter bullshit, I'm not living under a rock and I didn't see him coming around!

spend money on Musicology, Slaughterhouse and Chocolate Invasion.....all downloads from NPGMC.

I'm guilty! I need to STOP spending money on Prince.

Didn't spend a dime on the brother, I got a copy of Musicology from a friendly American who picked up multiple copies at one of the concerts. If he would have come to Europe I would have spent money on tickets, but unfortunately he didn't. Oh well, maybe next year....

I spent only pocket fluff on him this year. Why is that stuff always around in adventure games by the way?

funkaholic1972 said:

or maybe fortunately.... you have more money than me cuz I went to like 10 shows this year....

Maybe $50. I wasn't really into the "Hits" Musicology tour. I had a chance to see the tour but passed. I saw plenty ONA shows to last me a lifetime.

Me I did spend only the time I went online at Prince related webpages.

I spent money on Prince in 2004- but it wasn't outrageous.
I bought tickets to 6 Musicology shows
I bought Musicology and some other various singles and downloads and I bought PR, UTCM & GB on DVD.

PEJ said:

Uhm, what's better: seeing Prince performing ten times or keeping your money in the pocket so you can look at it once more?

I bought 32 cd's, P.R. SE, P.R. (not SE), UTCM (on dvd & vhs), The Hits music videos, Prince Live @ The Alladin, Graffiti Bridge, 2 shirts, a record,3 Prince magazines, a poster, Rave Un2 The Year 2000 (4 my teacher),& a some other stuff.

Oh my gosh, with the trip to PP and the hotel there, gas to drive there, and the aftershows and shows at Excel PLUS the Indianapolis show, Prince made me broke! It was totally worth it though!

I 4got 1 I have 3 shirts not 2.
