I purchased 2 copies too... I'm sure there are other out there so that may explain the sales biggrin but, where the hell are the winners? There's 2 weeks left for the contest, no? eek

An orger has got to win.


Yes, very curious that no one has claimed a winning ticket yet. Unless they are keeping quiet (like lottery winners). According to the rules, winners have to send in the ticket and then sign something with 7 days or so...but even if they didn't want their names released, wouldn't you think NPG would be saying, "3 tickets have been found." Would that make people buy more CDs or give up? hmmm

I couldn't picture finding the ticket and then mailing it in for verification with the chance of it getting lost! F that I would fly my ass to LA and hand it to them...they could verify it right in front of these eyes eek after all this isn't like winning a car this is a private concert!...well I guess I don't have 2 worry about it since I didn't win lol

that's why in the fine print they suggest making a copy of the ticket for your records and mailing it certified. reading wink

Right?! I'd really love to hear about someone buying it from Best Buy or Target or if they're lucky enough a local indie shop and opening it up and VOILA! out pops the Purple Ticket.

B/c otherwise it would have to be the Shadiest. Promo. Ever. confused

Damn. Every store that I go into still have a shitload of the "Specially Packaged" Purple Ticket CDs collecting dust. I'm guessing that the winning tickets might be had in the cut-out bin eventually.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Nah didnt see that ad, i hope Rove isnt covering ANYTHING. he'd be great if he was funny or had a clue.

If he actually has 2 purple tix to giveaway, he'll make the fans do something stupid like jumping on a trampoline wearing a ball gown or something equally stupid on live TV....

I hate Rove...remember that interview he did with Prince about a month after prince's last tour asking him when he was going to tour Australia???!!

Well, the time has come for the good old Aussies to be in for the running.

For all Australians watch Rove Live (equivalent to David Letterman or Jay Leno) next week, he is going to have 3 finalists from the Prince Competition on his show. (The competition was only open for 2 hours last year so if u didnt register last night, well you can't win.. never mind)
According to last nights show he will choose one winner out of the three, the winner will also be able to take a friend with her/him to Prince's house.

This means, next tuesday 2 Aussies will win the infamous Purple Tickets. Hopefully the winners are prince.org or housequake orgers .. so we can get the lowdown.If not, they suck.

why do i have a funny feeling that prince is going to cancel the purple ticket party? i think only one person so far has found a ticket (right?), and the deadlines are coming up pretty fast. if he's become as disinterested in the 3121 project as it seems, i can see him cancelling the contest, and NPG/universal offering the one winner some kind of alternate prize. maybe there are no other purple ticket winners because the purple tickets have been yanked?

How do we know for sure that there has been only one winner? People might have won that do not post on any of the online forums. shrug

So are you suggesting May 6 is the night of the private concert, or the date the winners will be announced? If it's the night of the concert, I think that means all the tix have been claimed. May 6 is only 3 weeks away and travel arrangements have to be made, etc.

pout And I haven't gotten notification yet that my postcard entry was chosen. hmph!

May 6 is supposedly the date of the concert and there is still the second chance drawing to be had on the
th so i don't think all of the winners have been found yet.

What if the CDs with the Purple Ticket are never purchased, meaning nobody wins??

The contest ended on the 11th. If all the purple tickets weren't found then, they will be a part of the second chance drawing to be held on the 16th.

My guess is that stores either were instructed to pull those CDs or maybe have them rewrapped.
