see, it's this kind of thing that damages your credibility in my eyes. even if you know for a fact that he read every post on this thread and you guys discussed it at length, that's none of our business and making these little allusions make your comments come off looking like attention-seeking bait. prince isn't some mystical talisman whom you have to summon by way of drawing pentagrams on the floor and lighting candles; he's a damn human being with a busy life and things to do, and i'm sure a thread on the org is the least of his concerns.

it's as much about perspective as it is about truth and lies. i mean really. come on, now.


You're not getting it, ANX. I am not assuming this because I think he reads the forum. It goes a little deeper than that. I can see how Journalism was your major. U R trying 2 bait me into saying outright that I have direct contact with Prince, and as soon as I'd say I do, the flaming would commence again. There is a very basic problem here. U assume I'm dishonest, and I'm not. We'll never get anywhere like that.

Peace.


i'm not flaming. but the way you dance around my criticisms, you should be doing tangos with heather mills on TV. well, maybe not heather mills, cuz she at least has ONE leg to stand on. lol

Actually, I didn't say that U R or would... I meant general flaming... I haven't danced around your "criticisms", because you fail 2 understand the difference between criticizing and outright cynicism. U challenged my honesty, and that is NOT criticism. Now U R clearly doubtful (see your "one leg 2 stand on" comment), and choose 2 remain that way. Fine. All good. I have no problem with that.

I do, and there's "the rub"... Your criteria is substantiated facts, which I cannot provide. Hopefully U understand the necessity 4 me not 2 say 2 much. I wouldn't say that I get off from this. A few people really do want 2 know what's happening, and know of my connections, that's all. The cryptic nature is necessary, not pleasurable. Let's just leave it at that, K? I gotta get back in the studio now.

will y'all please get the fuck outta here with the word "hater"?

If what either of them say is true, then they are betraying a confidence. If what either of them say is false, then it's an attempt to garner attention.


clapping Thank you.

Giovanni777 said:

I have betrayed NOTHING. Prince is aware of what I've said, and what U all have said. I can't say again... I do nothing here 4 attention. U all have serious TRUST issues, and that is painfully clear.
I've been in the music business all of my life, and 99% of my posts on this damn site R strictly about music.
The reason he is calling U haters, is because U R acting like it. Cynical, mistrusting, insulting, and ignorant.


eek Well in that case, confidential to Prince: please, please, please do a 3121 Club in NYC.

oooh, and I'd love write a piece comparing your work to that of Marcel Duchamp...are you familiar with his art? call and tell me what you think of it.

Though I'm somewhat loathe to post in a thread so littered with hostility, I couldn't help but jump in to defend an orger who established a real measure of credibility here some time ago - Giovanni777. Lay off the guy, for heaven's sake. Some of you crave album info so badly that you're trying to badger/goad him into revealing information that he simply isn't ready/allowed to share. Seriously, people.

No, that is not true. I prefer not to know anything about the album.

you can love someone and still call them out for acting like a fool. in fact, that could be a form of love if you really care about someone.

when do you show love on here?

I don't know what the new CD sounds like although I certainly know what I HOPEit sounds like. Having been a Prince fan since Lovesexy I have always felt that I jumped on board just when he was commencing his slide from monumental commercial success and popularity. It of course bothered me when I was young and impressionable, wanting my likes to be perceived as 'cool' by my peers, but as I got older this became unimportant....I just wanted Prince to produce a piece of work that met my own personal expectations and gave me the thrill of earlier work. Many of his later albums would give me an initial surge of happiness, accompanied with statements to my friends along the lines of "he has come up with the goods" but they have always faded to the status of also rans.

Today I feel that this album could truly be the culmination of a seemingly unstoppable return of the interest in Prince from the general public, something that has come about in my opinion due to Prince finding his Muse once again and producing the kind of work that hints at greatness around the corner. What I want is an album full of hard rock guitar that somehow captures the power of the man's live performance.....this after all is what has kept him in the mind's eye of a lot of the general public. Even those who profess to be Prince haters will always concede that he cuts it live and proof of this is the fact that 3 of my friends who own not one album between them begged me to get them tickets to the 3rd August O2 Dome gig in London. They are simply drooling at the prospect of what is in store for them, although no where near as much as I am biggrin

Having read all of this thread I would just like to say there is an awful lot of stress and angst going around here...none of this is really important and you would think that what Graycap and Gio were saying was akin to murder. I personally find it intriging, nothing more and it wets my appetite for the album I hope soon to get at the concert. It seems as though some people may feel threatened by some seeming to no more than they do as if it makes them less of a fan but then I guess hard core Org posters - like on any other site - often feel like their status is all important. Sorry if that is not fair, its just mu opinion.

Lets all just get excited about the album/gigs to come and try smiling a little wink
