Do YOU THINk PRINCE SHOULD HOLD LISTENING PARTIES FOR FANS TO CRITIQUE HIS NEW WORK BEFORE HE RELEASES IT?

He gives a dj say 2 discs and the fans have a piece of paper with questions and Critique and give Ideas and OPINIONS? Instead of having CRITICS ....He Lets the Fans DECIDE WHICH SONGS/ALBUMS get RELEASED and WHICH VERSION of SONGS...

Absolutely not! It would have been great in the old days but now he has too diverse a fan base. Somebody would be wanting a tired dull album like "The Truth" and then Prince would be releasing it.

that, and people would break out into verbal/physical fights because somebody's critique is different from someone else's. that, and some of the salacious-minded female fans would be too busy trynna find prince's lil' behind instead of helping out with the critiquing.

it's a thought, but nope--it can't happen.

It would be kind of like that scene in "Grafitti Bridge". I would be Morris Day coming in the middle of group of people sitting in chairs around a camp fire singing "Kumbaya" and roasting marshmallows. Then, I would kick over the chairs and throw the marshmallows in the trash and say....."I'm getting really tired of that spiritual mess, you know I can't make no money that way". "Turn up the funk, get rid of the Koolaid, and break out the alcohol....the funk party is back!" lol

I think it would be Cool if he did that like he did with his Gold album at Paisley Years ago. He Should get FEEDBACK from fans. I do believe he was asking for fans to tell him what songs he should play. I am sorry I missed the first 2 CELEBRATIONS as he had Sit downs with fans. I was INDISPOSED... biggrin

No

Can you imagine any great recording artist calling in a focus group peppered with a mixture of wannabe musos and sex-starved pschos to announce,

'Friends and fams, I've invested my time, money and God-given talent into this project ... so I hope you like it but, just in case you don't, I'm quite happy to re-record it, because I'm sure you, the collective, know best.

Punter A: Eye can hear those seminal nfluences with which u've CONspired 2 bless r very souls.

Punter B: More cussin' 'n guitar, dude.

Punter C: Where's 'Electric Intercourse'?

Punter Z: Dribble SLURP dribble DROOL. One NIGHT .. that's, all I ASK.

Prince: Security!!!


.
ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift.

no.

No matter what the listening party advises him, there will still be those who love it and those who hate it.

What Prince just needs to do is stop dying his hair black,let it grow grey naturally, and come out of the closet.

he should also release whatever he wants on his own terms as he's been doing--he's never going to please everybody--but he could at least get rid of his black hair illusion.
