I don't think he's an idiot, and I don't necessarily think he has lost his way either. But he has got to stop all of this religious conversion mess before he loses what's left of his fanbase. I really hope he gets out of this JW phase...I was ok with it for a while but now I must admit it's starting to bug me. I'll still see him in concert and buy the albums.

Eye feel the sameway u do!

gman1966 you seem unfamiliar with the origins of this thread. it arose from another topic on this board regarding the NPGMC's recent email. prince has CHOSEN to put his life path and his career path and his religious path up for public debate in the form of the 12 NPGMC emailed questions. he ASKED for our input via the questionnaire and there are some who feel that the religious content of the email is not appropriate for a multi-national, multi-religious fanbase. there are also some who are angry because, although the NPGMC took the time to compose this mass emailing, it has NOT yet taken the time to give us the information we have been asking for - updates on what the NPGMC is doing, regarding product shipment, release dates, upcoming tours, etc.

It is really amazing how some of you people want Prince to lead his life and career in the manner that would make you all happy. Well I guess that is just the negative part of being famous, so many people live vicariously through you.

I doubt Prince cares a whole,whole lot about losing any fan base because he has gained a world wide association of brothers and the more he continues to make that spiritual noise more brothers and sisters will be coming to see his shows. I have eight who are interested in next years Celebration already just from Stockton.I am sure there are others from different parts of the US and beyond !!! Of course he wants to share the good things he's found with people who were with him all along his road in life.He will find some I guarantee you that too.The majority won't listen and that's okay if they don't want to he already knows most won't give him the time of day to talk in a spiritual sense no matter who he is and that's okay.Because if only one were to do so...God's heart and his would rejoice together !!!

You are not EVEN kidding... I stopped even posting ironic comments most of the time because they managed to fly right past a bunch of people who proceeded to tell me how much of an asshole I was when they didn't even understand that I was saying the exact opposite of what they thought...

Sigh...

By the way, some completely illiterate moron tried to take exception to my signature and said that I was wrong... WAR IS NOT PEACE!!! FREEDOM IS NOT SLAVERY!!! IGNORANCE IS NOT STRENGTH!!!

They went on for a few posts on this... even with other people telling them that they were stupid...

Sigh again...

Oh, but I didn't fold! All of those words can be used in negative ways as well...

For example:

Prince is courageous in that he constantly tests the extreme limits of the patience of his fans.

Prince is passionate about fucking his fans at every opportunity!

Prince is really talented at duping people into buying his bullshit.

Prince has found new and creative ways to siphon the money off of his most loyal followers.

Prince is damned near prolific in the area of silly religious ramblings.

Prince is lucky that he is charismatic, otherwise he would take an ass whipping from an angry NPGMC member every time he left his house.

Prince has been blessed by the few fans that remain loyal to him.

Prince is loved by many... but he doesn't love them back.

This is what you are getting your underware in a bind over.
Updates or a new release could be coming any day now.
Realize that if the members do not receive anything else this year the music club is over.

If you dislike the religious content of the e-mail just delete it. The question are not that deeply religious any way.

nahhh. my undies aren't in a bunch. after this year's celebration i finally made the decision to distance myself from prince. i won't be going to the park again anytime soon and to be honest i'm not all that interested in whatever releases are upcoming from the club. i only posted the above in response to another post.

it's not so bad being a 'banished one' big grin

Everyone's dissing TRC and ONA albums now, but wait about 3-5 years, they'll be more popular than ever. He's literally ahead of his time. His music tells everybody, where music as a whole is going.

the truth(which is a great album imo)didn't get much respect.so u know crap like trc and ona won't last a year.

ps: which is not to say i don't still love and respect prince and wish him well. i do. but, it's time for me to say goodbye to my devotion to his cause. i had a bad experience at the Larry Graham workshop, which was obviously due to my own disappointed expectations of what 'should' have taken place at that event as opposed to what 'did' happen, but in any case i found the whole thing to be truly off-putting. and, it's really changed how i feel about the direction prince has taken and the people he surrounds himself with. it's also changed how i feel about blindly putting money into a 'music club' which may or may not be linked to the JW cause. i'm not canceling my membership or anything, but i guess i'm kinda moving on

I don't think Prince would come off as an idiot if he weren't surrounded by so many "yes men," but rather by people who hold objective views. This latest survey is another example of Prince trying to mold the views of his fans (wasn't dubbing them "fams" another example of this?). I hope that Prince reads the responses unfiltered so that he may get some input other than "Yes, Prince. You are so right!"

he needs me around him.i put him in check.tell him 2
stop the trc's and ona.swallow his pride..get the revolution back 2gether with DEZ.and have him making

Do you think you'll be renewing your membership next year or attending the Celebration if there is one? I understand what you're saying...it seems a lot of people are feeling the same way that you are. At least you're not leaving here. smile

Battier is cool, funny and she likes Bergman!!!

As far as the husband stuff goes, I believe that she is sixteen... more than likely not married... and, if I recall correctly, she does have a boyfriend... she mentioned him on another post where she said that he hates Prince.

Sixteen and a Bergman fan!!!

I think he says and does a lot of things that make him look like an idiot, but I do believe that all in all Prince is a pretty bright guy. He just needs to stick to music and forget about the rest of the non-sense.


nonsense is in the eye of the beholder lovemachine. Cat Stevens wont pick up a guitar, but he did rerecord his song "The Wind" last year with nothing but the sound of wind in the backround. If Prince stuck to nothing but music, I do believe that even he would be board. Or do you suggest he take up golf.

Woah...Batty woman or "girl" looks a lot older than 16! I agree with Oceana and Vagina on this one; Batty needs to get a life and stop polluting the board with crap.


Yes I look ANCIENT! But I assure you my little peon, I'm 16. Anyone who agrees with a Vagina and a dumbass has no room to talk - and I suppose YOU can do sooo much better posting, you've posted a heaping 24 times, in which I'm sure there has been nothing interesting.

Thank you, have a lovely day. finger

If she is not making up stupid threads she is responding to them.. Like duh dont she have a life. Well from the looks of her she does not have a boyfriend and from the way she acts for sure no husband. SHE HAS TO MUCH TIME ON HER HANDS!...Next?


Like, DUH 'n stuff, school is out for the summer...Thank you, my little peon friend. We could talk about the immense ammounts of time YOU spend in Prince.org chat...And how you posted that you have, what was it - 10 children, all on the honor roll. Mmhmm. You have an awful lot of time to chat it up to have 10 children, don't you? Or 6, or whatever bullshit load you had.

So, you have a lovely day, oceana...Tend to those 50 children, and the husband/boyfriend you must have that sits next to you, and holds your little hand whilst you chat. I'm sure it takes both of your tiny brains to come up with the bullshit you type.

And you can stop pming me in the chat any day now. You start crap, and I'm tired of it. rolleyes Get a life yourself, my little friend.

And yet, oceana had this to say about BattierBeMyDaddy just a few days ago on the thread: 'Sexiest on DA Org'...

"The (sexiest) men? Way to many to mention... The woman...BATTIERBEMYDADDY, just go take a look at her. She is the bomb! I think she could catch Prince eye in a second!

And she was serious...

I think the manic phase of the bi-polar disorder is kicking in again, along with the voices and hallucinations. Which is why she's back on the threads again--once second she loves ya, then insults you. Go back to the chat room oceana.

i don't know AzureStar. i'm still thinking about it. on the one hand i feel connected to prince because i grew up here in minneapolis and always admired him. he used the symbol design i used to doodle when i was a kid, he uses MY wink chord progressions in a lot of his songs, and i admire his talent, personality and wit. he's always kind of been my hero and his music has helped me a lot over the years.

however, (and believe me i know i'm an utter ass for my vindictive attacks on larry and tina graham), i don't like what seems to have happened at the park. i had a friend who worked there who quit. mind you, i don't know the entire story but from what i've been able to gather the JW religion and those who promulgate it have devoured some of the freedom of thought which used to exist at the park. and to me paisley park used to be ABOUT freedom and unity despite differences. now, it seems that an 'either you're with us, or you're against us' mentality prevails at the park.

so, i don't think i'll attend next year's celebration, or else i'll attend only a couple of nights if that's possible.

as far as my membership, i do want to support prince's freedom fight against the corporate world, but i don't want to inadvertently support the JW cause. i'd rather donate the money to something i believe in. and, i don't wish to be nasty or judgemental about another person's religion, but the teachings of the JWs truly contradict what i hold to be true and what i've learned through personal experience. so, i really don't know right now

IceNine i threw a shameful tantrum and insulted both tina and larry in a report i wrote about larry's workshop in the celebration forum. i did overstate myself and broke the cardinal rule of 'wait a day or two' before actually submitting this, but i meant what i said, without the exception of the personal nastiness i expressed toward them both.

i'm sure they're both fine human beings but they totally freaked me out.

So bat woman, what is it? 10,6,50 children do I have? Hey at least my children have more brains than you do and a hell of alot more manners than you do, they also have a mother who would NEVER let them on a site like this... Where are ur parents.. You need guidance. The way you talk "I hope you get a yeast infection" to another young girl is hateful, oh come on now, I was 16 at one time and NEVER spoke to adults the way that you do. Hell I would NEVER let my sons bring home a girl like you. I have 4 sons, 3-10-17-20 years old.. NEVER would a girl like you walk in my door and my sons know this. YOU KNOW WHAT BATTY, THATS IT! YOU ARE GROUNDED, GO TO UR ROOM!!!
