Purple Rain is the midnight showing on Saturday, April 30th at Seattle's Egyptian Theater. Have fun

i wanna go.

One Night Only! Sat, April 30 at Midnight at the Egyptian Theatre!



Midnight Mass with Your Hostess Peaches Christ" comes to Seattle for one night only! This San Franciscan treat is a midnight movie phenomenon led by drag sensation Peaches Christ, complete with pre-show entertainment and audience participation. Sing-Along Purple Rain is Seattle's Midnight Mass debut, and features projected lyrics for maximum rocking during the screening of Prince's first motion picture. Ms. Christ encourages everyone to dress up and compete in her "80's Slut Pageant" preceding the film! Let's go crazy!

as opposed to the Purple Rain soundtrack showing? I know we're not the brightest bunch around here but I hardly think many of us would have been confused without the clarification that it was the film that was showing and not the soundtrack. last I checked you didn't really show cd's, you listened to them.

Someone should post this in Fan Gatherings...SOmeone wasasking about it.

Good times. Peaches and Mar-tini put on a good show. Enjoy.

It's the movie and everyone is encouraged to sing a long. They have a lyric sing a long thing a ma jiggy at the bottom of the screen...so you can follow the lyrics (like you need em). But the best part is everyojne screaming thier favorite lines...like when Prince comes int he house all mad and shit and goes "Where are you Muther Fucker!" Everyone screaming that line...hilarious like cancer.

Sing-A-Long Purple Rain is a "MOVIE SING-A-LONG and it fucking rocks!
It's totally high camp and hilarious as all hell. Peaches Christ is a San Francisco icon and puts on a an absolutely amazing show. If your in Seattle or the surrounding areas you have to go....especially if your a Prince & The Revolution fan.

I'm there!

sounds like a cult!

Is this a new film from Prince? I sure hope it's better than Graffiti Bridge

If you're in the area and can make the show...GO! I went to this twice in SF, it was a blast, especially the preshow activities! Be sure to bring a camera! !

I am SOOOO going

Living in Seattle SO FAR has its perks

no. It's just Peaches and her small crew. You should check out her website and contact her if you are really interested. Though you'd have to pay them somehow, I'd imagine...either the theatre or whomever bring em to ya.

I have to say to EVERYONE...if you want this kind of stuff in your cities, you need to do the work. Either contact those who ARE doing it and let them know that there is a huge want where you are to do this type of thing. Or maybe they can help you get one organized.

This goes for the Purple rain sing along...prince gatherings, one off parties. There are not PRINCE ORGANIZERS in each city...you need to make your own. Get these folks together...UNITE. It can be done.

gays and trannies make me wanna puke. Why don't people like that just leave the earth?

Lead the way! We'll be right behind you. Don't wait, we're coming. . .

Did anyone go see this last night?

8up said:

I saw it. It was fucking awesome.

There was a drag show that opened it, with the ladies acting out several of the songs from PR, and an 80s slut contest with people pretending to give each other head on popscicles, and then the movie with singalong. Watching a movie that takes itself VERY seriously the way PR often does with a group of people who aren't there to take it seriously is, as it turns out, BEYOND hilarious. I never realized what a crackup it is.


Good times.

because it would leave an unproportionally high
number of assholes behind, or so it seems.
