Here come the "Prince Fan Posers" ya'll...

You know...with the kick ass SNL performances and "Black Sweat", it's gonna be people coming out the fucking woodwork claiming that they're purple hippies. That shit is gonna KILL me. Cuz most of the time when I tell someone how much I love P, they say "blah blah blah Purple Rain blah blah blah" and I'm like "The dude's been out for almost 30 years, wrote one of the biggest hits of the 90's(continue to brag about P here)and you think all he ever came out with is Purple Rain??" "Um..yeah. Prince is a weirdo." That's my typical conversation with a non-fan. But it's gonna be all kinds of people on his dick soon, but we know who the real fans are.
Kewlness.
cool
Just wanted to point this out.

With the way this album looks like it's gonna sound. i'm thinking it'll do a LOT better than Mewsickology and produce more "fans".

I should do that. Or ask "Hey, have you heard that BRAND new Prince album, Around The World In A Day? You know, the one with Raspberry Parade on it."

"Oh yeah! It rocks!! she was a raspberry parade, she bought a tambourine at the 99 cent store...."

Hey, the topic doesn't say "newbies" it says "posers". I love newbies. They are fresh gasoline for the purple bus. Posers on the other hand.....

Mines too. They be saying "Oh yeah I love Prince and he was so cool in Purple rain and the 1999 thing." Half of those fools don't even know he did You got the look or Gett Off. Or they don't even know he is the man who is responisible for the time and vanity 6 Nasty Girl. And sadly they don't even know which album Kiss is from as some claimed they love the song.

This is silly, this us versus them attitude. I believe Prince appreciates his dedicated fans and welcomes the ones who appreciates his new music.

No question about Prince embraces newbies. I embraces newbies never said I didn't. and I even successfully convert them to to become Prince's big fans.
This thread is about posers. I even spoke to some claiming to be a very big Prince fan yet acted like Purple Rain is the only album he made.

That's part of what made Musicology so cool. There were people who left the purple camp in the 80's or 90's and they came back. If 3121 does more of the same, then I say, "Bring em on and welcome back!"
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

sorry, but get over yourself. I don't think the SNL performance is going to have folks coming out of the woodwork. It was a really good performance of a mediocre song. That's it. And I don't think its up to you or anyone else on this site to define what a "real" fan is. I've been down since the beginning, but that doesn't make me more of a "real" fan than anyone else. Really, that only makes me old.

lol - Yeah, you know, there was definately an upshot in Prince newbies, or reforms after Musicology -- There's been a whole host of really old newbie questions on here ever since. It's no bad thing -- A really GOOD, organised FAQ is in order for someone like Prince though who has such a huge body of work.

Not saying I wanna make it, but you know, it would come in handy for those newbie questions that crop up.

Thankfully I haven't seen a 'Purple Rain originally a double album?' threads in a long time shake

And I know people who thinks Dirty Mind, Prince, For You, and Batdance are new Prince albums while others don't like them. But give a sista a slack because at least she have those ATWIAD and Parade in her collection and thinks they are better than The Rainbow Children. evillol

What is a poser?

Somebody who doesn't have every b-side memorized both backwards and forwards?


Somebody who doesn't have the January 4, 1987 Tokyo show on bootleg?


Somebody who doesn't nod and wink knowingly when discussing the secret codes in Anna Stesia, Sometimes it Snows in April and The Holy River?


Somebody who thinks Musicology is actually a pretty good record and doesn't feel like getting hipster points for dissing it?

I'm confused. I thought this was a place to discuss Prince's music. Isn't it a GOOD thing to bring in new fans even if they haven't compiled their own compilations of every Prince CD, incorporating b-sides, remixes and outtakes, and even designed their own sleeves for the singles that SHOULD have been released? cool Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Let's get over ourselves here. The elitist attitude that crops up on this forum from time to time just kills me.

I've been a fan since 1982; i think i'll have a celebratory badge made up in my own honor.

Spats

The posers have been around since the Musicology tour. I remember being outside the Air Canada Centre watching thousands of people piling in for the sold out shows and asking "Where have all of you people been?????" In 2002 he was playing Massey Hall. Now all of sudden all of you people adore him? You all deserted his ass after the Purple Rain era ended. Get the F**k out of here.
