Nick has made many posts and moderating decisions I do not agree with. He is not a mod of the forum that I am aware of but why do you have a problem with him posting something that is true? Something that many people here know, [Bait snip - luv4u]

You have absolutely nothing to be sorry about. Take it back

uh, no I did not find it offensive. P has had that guitar since Gold came out in 95'.

i missed the commercial, but i did see prince perform.
i thought he was awesome as always, but i gave him even more props for performing in the rain like it was nothing.

i didnt read all of this thread, but it looks like foks have been going back and forth since page one and for what?

maybe he just appreciated the fans being there. i'm sure being in the rain was uncomfortable.

again i didnt see it, but i doubt there is a hidden agenda.

and if he is trying to pub up a new album, good!
i'd like to hear some new stuff for him.

And a thank you to Prince for putting together a great performance and in the rain at that Yes,I caught the commerical and I know how much he does appreciate his fans.At a celebration the air conditioning went out and I think Prince must have apologized to his fans atleast 10 times, he even rented out a movie theater in Chanhassen so we could go somewhere and cool off as well enjoying a movie since he planned to have a all nighter at Paisley.Yes Prince is so .

same thing happened in seattle when he played here. It was done to maintain the "sold out" status of his tour, they gave away tickets for a quarter. not fair but i'd rather have paid and made sure i got in than risk something like that.

I missed the commercial and now can't even access it via HQ.
Damn, ain't that a bitch.

What? Oh my goodness! I'm from Seattle, and paid big bucks (well, to a college student anyway) to see him! The show sold out in minutes! Oh well, it was worth every penny.

I can't believe it, but I actually taped the commercial by accident! I got home in time to see the last 20 minutes of the Grammys, but I was too tired to watch. I just hit record on the VCR, and went to bed. When I was watching what little I had recorded, the commercial was in the first 5 minutes! Good thing too, because nothing after it was very exciting. I did miss his mini-appearance tho, and now it's too late to see it on HQ.

Yeah, that's what happened alright. We're musicians though Rani, that makes a difference, we do more than get entertained, we draw influence and inspiration.So the money factor is not important to me at least. (Everyone go to Rani's myspace, she's a damn fine singer).

And actually, I've done the same the same thing. When Bruce Springsteen was here, I had nothing, one of my buddies paid 3 dollars a piece for tickets, they were scalpers though, not the artist himself. Bruce could hardly half fill the tacoma dome so they were practically giving away the tickets. Prince has some faithful fans, you must say. The Seattle center was pretty packed. Both nights. And our man didn't dissapoint, I got teary eyed when he did the acoustic version of Little Red Corvette and loved his little Men/Women diatribe which earned him some criticism from a female reviewer the next day. He seemed to be natural and accessible, unlike the Prince of years ago.

Awww...thank you!

But you are right about the money. I did more than watch a concert that night, I was reminded why I was doing my music to begin with. Prince has such a way of inspiring me. So, in response to Prince's thank you commercial,

"No, thank you Prince!"
