To do something concerning Prince?
I mean...the craziest thing I did was start a debate @ my job about him.
It was amongst EVERYONE in the workplace! And I worked @ the biggest Library branch in all of Brooklyn!
It was traveling around the offices...the superviors were even in it.
I am now know as the "Prince Defender" and my legacy still carries on there!

Damn...that was a good day!
What did u do?

I used to sleep in front of concert venues.
I gave him a sand dollar, but he broke it.

U gave him a sand dollar?
@ least u had contact!
wow

what on earth is a sand dollar? please tell, i've seen this term used a few times on the org now!

This happened just recently! Prince performed two nights in Hollywood in April, and when the aftershow ended the first night, we walked right down to the street and got in line for the next day's show! LOL

The things you do for front-center! LOL (It was TOTALLY worth it cuz I got to sing "Heeeyy" during HCUDCM!!)

drove some 1200 miles to the celly! ugh!

a sand dollar is a seashell, there is a legend behind it...here it is
Legend of the Sand Dollar

Upon this odd shaped sea shell a legend grand is told, about the life of Jesus, the wondrous tale of old. The center marking plainly shows the well known Guiding Star, that led to tiny Bethlehem, the Wise Men from afar.

The Christmas flower, Poinsettia for His Nativity. The Resurrection too is marked, the Easter Lily. Five wounds where suffered by our Lord, from nails and Roman's spear. When He died for us on the cross, the wounds show plainly here.

Within the shell, should it be broke, five Doves of Peace are found. To emphasize this legend so may Peace and Love abound.

Cut my hair like Wendy in 1986.


Married my husband because he looked like Jerome.

1200? I drove 1900 straight in my Camaro with no spare tire. Got a room at the Americainn (last minute) when got there. I had 2 stop in every state except Jersey 2 get gas. And this was when they had that gas hike, $2.70 in Chicago.
I broke night in front of Tower Records 2 get concert tickets in '93. No regrets though

HAH! I knew I wasn't the only faithful and zany Prince fam!
4 us all!

I work in radio and got passes to the Minneapolis premiere
of Graffiti Bridge,so I grabbed a couple of buddies and we
drove from Maine to Minnesota STRAIGHT THRU! and saw it plus
got to tour PP and went to Glam Slam and saw MIchael B.play
all in all a shitload of fun,except that we got in an accident on the way back

I Prince
Prince

crazy freak! 1200 is just an estimate..I forget now how many miles it is from NH to MN...but it was either 1200 or 1400 or something like that...and we drove staight through also...but I must confess..we did have a spare tire.

1900 miles? Thats nothing. I once spent 2 hours hitting refresh, and still I didn't get a ticket...

NH 2 MN? That's a little futher than NYC 2 MN. When I got 1/2 way through Jersey I was like "what the hell am I doing?" I was getting a bit nervous but then I was like screw it, mpls or bust! I'm glad I did it. Minnesota is a beautiful place and I always wanted 2 cruise the streets of MPLS in my car

hey Shorty I think you and I traveled more like 1500 one way 3000 round trip because Liz and I needed an oil change when we got back to Boston

You're probably right!! for some reason I can't remember how far it was exaclty...huh? kinda strange that I can't remember don't ya think.
yeah cntrvrsy...tell me about it...actually the drive out was like no problem...lickidy split (cept for the freakin speeding ticket I got in NY state!)...it was the drive home that SUCKED big time!! damn I thought we'd never get back!
Did you drive out by yourself??? I had me and 2 other girlies with me to share the driving atleast. I flew the first year..flew the second year and drove the third year...IF I go again...I'm flying...not driving. Oh and we rented a car too...I kinda wish I'd taken my car so I could have drove around town with my license plate! (PR1NCE)

Me too, finger still aching from all that refreshing, with nothing but a callous to show for it.

was laid off at my job in 97, booked a flight to Birmingham Al of all places & saw the show, flew back the nxt day with no regrets..

wow farfunknugin
dedication? yeh

Don't feel so bad Shorty, I got pulled over in Indiana . And on the way back I never thought I'd get out of Pennsylvania. After awhile, I thought I entered the Twilight Zone.

gambool said:

OUCH...

Saw the New York shows in 98 then with my friend drove to Boston in record time. One hour to showtime changed in the parking lot,put on make-up then afterward took the car and together we drove straight to Philadelphia and later that night saw the Aftershow which was Awesome and immediately without stopping my friend drove back to N.Y. We didn't sleep much in those days and I still don't. It certainly Was the Jam of the Year.

U people did alot of driving back and forth. That must have been alotta damn gas.

And listen to this disgusting thing. My friend and myself drove there to the concerts and all I ate was Provolone and Ham sandwiches for a week. I was pregnant or anything just craved those type of sandwiches with lot's of mustard. Disgusting right? How I didn't vomit is beyond me. We were so Nervous and stressed out. Gross to say the least.
