What happened to Paisley Park?

Is it for rent? 4 sale?

What do you know that some of us don't? Wasn't aware anything was up with it. Maybe you could enlighten?

No doubt, I don't think it's for rent nor for sale. It's a landmark for P so why would he sell it.

It's funny, I was just thinking about posting a thread about Paisley Park.

Is business going that bad for him?

The second building needs some work. The outdoor walls have been looking bad for quite a while now.
The side door, entrance to trucks, has been broken for month, the gate keeps swinging and is 25% open.
The metal outdoor seats have stayed there all winter and are probably getting rusty by now.

What is he doing?

I will have to pack up the kids and take a drive out there one of these days.

You could stop at Houlihan for lunch. They have a great menu

seems like everything is on hold.

There's a program about Paisley Park coming on Sunday, 4/15 on VH1 Classics - It starta at noon, Eastern time. It's called "Party at Paisley Park". Someone had a thread here about it.

I thought he was waiting for his divorce to be final before investing in anything she might want. I don't know that but have seen it suggested by others here and thought it made sense.

OMG, thank you for the link, I am in absolute heaven right now! I didn't even know Paisley Park had a website.

Wow, looking at these pix makes me want to go back to Paisley Park in the WORST way. What a place!

I hope Prince never sells Paisley Park, I would seriously be upset! I love that place!

I heard through the grapevine that nothing's going on there anymore.
Prince owns it outright, so all he has to do is keep up property taxes,
but it sounds like he's trying to decide what to do with it.

That's really all I know.

Paisley Park is like nostalgia to use fans but everything changes and nothing can stay the same forever.....

True.....but in the same token it has such a wonderful sound stage (one of the best in the country the way I understand it),
it would be a shame to see it razed (not that it'll happen). I'm just saying.

And yet I can't imagine anyone else but Prince owning it...it's such a Prince landmark.

i didn't realize how mammoth that place actually is.....if it is going to grass, it is a total shame and a MAJOR business failure should that be the case.

12noon, Eastern time, VH1 Classic - Sunday, April 15th.

vanessabfly said:

You must have read that really fast....

I will Tivo it. Thanks for the listing.

i guess i won't be.....VH1-Classic.....Don't have it. I only have VH-1.

Wowugotit said:

But it's not a business failure by any means...it's been hopping for years,
actually right up to the last couple of months...but that's because it's
Prince's choice at the moment.

Duh!

i'm missed all the excitement and parties.

Awww...actually I didn't make it to that many either, but any party
at Paisley Park was worth being there for, even if Prince didn't always
show up.....
