Did you get the 3CD set in the mail?
If so, where do you live? Just looking for a timeline to check my mailbox.
Thanks

Holy shit! Real information is materializing. I'm getting really excited for this now. Even though I've seen the ONA show 3 times now, it's gonna be wonderful to have it captured in perfect quality. Reading the tracklist has me really psyched. Peach/Joy in Repetition/Alphabet St./2 Nigs/Sometimes it Snows/Condition of the Heart/Xenophobia- cannot wait!

Wow, looks pretty cool. One thought though - weren't the CDs meant to be selected performances from different shows? This still looks like the setlist from a typical One Nite Alone show. Strange I thought it would have been somewhat different. Still, it's all good especially the aftershow disc. Can hardly wait to hear The Ballad of Dorothy Parker and Joy In Repitition!!

noticed that he didn't include the covers he played during the usual ONA show (if this is true)?

Too bad...Sing A Simple Song rocks...would still make a kick-ass CD set, of course.

Bring it ON!

Also I wonder how "joy in repetition" seques into "we do this" because at the NYC aftershow "pass the peas" went straight into "we do this".

...and I wonder why RS has this info?

"...and I wonder why RS has this info?"

b/c prince as always shows complete disdain for his faNs who have taken a misguided leap of faith and followed him into this "xperiment in truth." hey prince, why not send your fans an e-mail FIRST? is it really that difficult to show any loyalty?

i think he just really gets a kick out of the fact that he can continually jerk us around and we still line up to fork over our money each year...which is why i say next year DON'T JOIN until they are already SHIPPING shit and they have CONCRETE info (tracklist, etc.)

GUARANTEE y'all that these 3 discs are the completion of this sorry-ass year of membership. just WATCH.

the hell? People, look, it's going to be alright. Just because Prince didn't call you up and tell you the tracklist, doesn't mean he's Satan.

I'm going to withdraw my membership now and leave flaming poop on the doorstep of Paisley Park, because Prince is my whole life and he's totally ruining it...

BTW, I wasn't complaining about RS having the tracklist...couldn't give a sh*t if we get it from the club or from somewhere else.
I just wondered if they got that officially or if someone leaked the information.

Have you heard "the other side of the pillow"? It's drastically re-arranged, has more of an jazz/blues feeling live.
