New topic
PrintableIf this is for real, it sounds like Xenophobia (the new studio album) is history. There's no way Prince is gonna release 2 completely different albums with the same title.
(unless it's one of the extra discs in the 7cd set) | |

Well what the fuck else is there to do BUT over-analyze? This is Prince were talking about here. Nothing is cut n dried, black or white with him. Thats also what makes being a Prince fan frustrating AND fun. It's like a game. "Climb in my fur." | |

1. Why can't he tell the club members what is going on first? "Xclusive newz direct from the park?" - agreed. 2. I hope the club edition is significantly different, because the retail version will be filling bargain bins in 6 months time. - can't say yet if there will be ANY release 3. Does this mean the music club will give no new music in 2002? only live disc and a 2001 demo? - no, doesn't mean any of that. the club will offer at least 4 new cd's. 4. If it goes retail you can bet there will be overdubs galore. - I hope not 5. I bet "The Last December" CD is dead, to me it was always going to be a Rainbow Children live CD. - I bet it was just an idea for a title of whatever. Heres what I'd like to see... 1. A 3 disc in retail, and a 7 disc available to purchase for club members only. This gives us exclusive rights, if we choose to buy. - yeah, but unlikely 2. Continued delivery of the Xenophobia studio CD (he did say this years discs were in the can BEFORE the celebration). - agreed. 3. Delivery of the Madrid 2 Chicago CD - no, it is another album sounding a lot like "rave/nps". 4. Delivery of the hits, as long as they are re-recorded. - what hits? 5. Some customer service and information. - agreed on the more and clear information part. I wish! - yeah lol You are not my "friend" because you threaten my security. | |

That's sounds like a lot of shipping and burning cost$$. Average cost of pressing a disc is $.31 and I wouldn't be surprised if mailing out 7 discs at once would actually be cheaper than mailing out 3 separate discs spread over the next few months. oh no...we're talkin' in addition to the remaining 3 CDs LOL!! Oh, well, that won't happen.  you sure know how to rain on a girls parade joey! thanx! LOL  "not a fan"  yeah...ok | |

OK Naysayers
Club members get their 3 cds and it gets released to retail also. Have we been bamboozed once again? or is it 7 cds, whatever, i am so over this ---------------------------------
 Funny and charming as usual | |

If your READ the press release, it is patently obvious that Prince plans (hopes) to release this box set thru a major label to stores. It says nothing about the NPGMC, so you can just go ahead and expect your other 3 cd's as promised. As for the notion of a 7 cd set? That took the form of a question in response to bootleggers. It's a tease, yes, but certainly not a promise. Calm down, the lot of you. | |

Maybe we will get one cd sent to members that will be a highlight edition of the 7-cd set. If we want to have the full 7-cd set, we have to buy it through retail. I don't know what's going on anymore, it's all just too confusing! | |

Actually, you non-members HAVE been getting a taste of us members' "opportunity"...namely, DIDDLEY-SQUAT. 
I'd love to be all gooey and bubbly golden-brown with anticipation over this live CD set business, but I ran out of anticipation a few months ago, back when I was looking forward to the ONA CD that I'm now told I'll get sometime between now and February. Nice. Real nice. | |

It's a little unsettling that we paid $100 & still hear this first from a music news site. | |

What we get is not really a gripe with me. I mean, afterall, if the content of music that we get this year for our membership aint up to scratch then I wont bother renewing. Simple.
My gripe does come from the fact that getting simple, to the point information is like trying to shit with a cork up ya ass! Its a nightmare! What is wrong with being straight to the point and informative? It aint the people who work for the club that are being pedantic about it all, its Prince himself. I think he wakes up with a different idea every day and confuses everyone. Including himself! We all know Prince releases something into the stores every year. So this year seems to be a live CD set. Great! We also know that he still owes club members three more CDs. It sounds pretty straight forward really. All I ask is that NPGMC are clear and consise about what is going on. Theres bound to be anger, and even panic, when a three CD set is announced for general release when coincidently club members are still short of three CDs. SORT IT OUT PRINCE! PLEASE!!! | |
