My 40-day Prince fast is over!

I'm back!

A few of you may remember that in an attempt to stay spoiler-free for 3121, I went on a 40-day Prince fast - avoiding listening to Prince music, and avoiding the org/HQ etc. (this was only mostly-successful - I didn't post, but I checked to find out about Ultimate / The Brits and so on).

I'll post my thoughts on 3121 elsewhere, but I'm posting this as a welcome-back to any others who joined me on the Prince fast (I know there were others out there somewhere).

And hey, check that out - the avvie I've been using for a while ended up as the cover smile

I was thinking of you the other day and wondering if you'd really gone through with it! Welcome back! hug

I managed to hold off on album spoilers and listening to leaked tracks, but I've been listening to older stuff constantly.

Go post on the album sticky! cool

...hey, aren't you in Boston? I should have seen you at the Virgin Megastore on Mass. Ave! mad

Greater Boston, yeah - Cambridge in fact. I was there at Newbury Comics in Harvard Square when it opened... Of course, I've missed out on some stuff - was something happening at the Virgin Megastore?

Nice to know you were thinking of me hug

omfg I'm in Cambridge too! But right by Mass Ave in Central Sq, so it was just a quick jump over the Mass Ave bridge to the store. Nah, nothing happening except they're open till 12:30 Monday nights. I had to have it ASAP; I'd waited too long! http://www.prince.org/msg/7/181983 giggle

The closest I came to a fast was for the week before 3121 was released the only Prince I listened to were instrumentals. As it happened I got Madhouse 8 & 16 the week before so I added Kamasutra & N.E.W.S. & those 2 download cds from NPGMC and thats all the Prince I heard all week. Nothing with vocals.
Worked nicely.
