Ladies, I know we get excited & lose our minds when P hits the stage - we've waited a long time, he's fine, our feet hurt, he's FINE, our drawz need changing - all that stuff. BUT if we scream our heads off throughout the ENTIRE show, not only are we endangering the hearing of the unlucky bastards standing in front of us - we could also be ruining a damn good bootleg!!!

2 things before anyone says it: I know bootlegs are wrong, and I apologize for listening... AND I know men let out yells too, but I've never had an experience completely $%#@*! by a man, only a hysterically screaming broad.

For example, I had the pleasure of hearing Beautiful Strange from the Dallas ONA Aftershow. Literally every 10 seconds some broad is screaming LOUD y'all, so loud I'm sure she couldn't hear a damn thing, dooming everyone around her to the same irritating fate.

When you get to a kickass song like BEAUTIFUL STRANGE, a song you just wanna take in & be drowned by, and you've got some ride 'em cowboy type screams all over it, it's about as fair as Mr. Piatt not paying for the scooter! :O

I seriously hope that woman got hit w/ a brick once outside Club Red Jacket...

... but I don't want that to happen to any of you! (unless your name is... oh nevermind) So PLEASE ladies - give your throats a rest, respect the fellow fans in earshot & lighten up on the screams!!

Happy concert going...

:LOL:

dont worry, Cal, Euro chicks dont scream like that...only American chicks

Absolutely! Hear hear!!!

Its like getting that seat on the plane right next to the baby that dont stop wailing its head off!!!

Actually, there is this one boot from the JOTY tour where a guy is barking like a dog all the way through a slow song. What a jackass But I'm right there with you on the screaming thing.

barking guy



There's another part where a woman is so clearly saying, "I'm gonna go outside. I need some air, I feel like I'm gonna pass out. Gimme a cigarette." She must have been standing right next to whoever was recording it, fucking up yet another great song - I think it's during The Ride, which is bloody AWESOME...

suomynona said:

LOL...I have that bootleg too and yes,that girl totally ruins the recording.I also have a recording (might be the same one) where Prince plays a studio version of "P Control" for the first time,and invites girls up onstage to dance to it.Lawd,you should hear the part where this chick tries to sing along with it!! I'm like "SHUT UP"!!

Since we're on this topic...


I'm sure many of us have that rough-sounding "I Hate U" bootleg recording.I guess Prince played the studio version during or before one of his shows.You can hear some guy saying "This sounds like "Joy In Repetition",right?"

Yep,I got that one

Again somebody that wants to nip someone else's pleasures in the bud...
I'll be sure to scream as loud as I can all concert and make sure it will be nonsense.
Like; "ow-uhs!"
Or I will bark all my way through "A Case Of YOU, cuz basicly, Prince's version SUCKS big time.

WHy do you all think this is all about YOU YOU YOU
I mean; I hate it too when girls pull at your hair, stab their elbows in my kidneys because they think Prince wants them as bad as they want him, but jeez.
I do not take directions.

I will ask my stupid questions ("Prince do you wear underwear today?"), I will wear my polka dot suit (I made it myself damnit) and I will spray paint my face purple and I will present him my sand dollars and homemade cookies as much as I want.

Jeez.

And all of you silly girls; go fuck yourself. This 6'4" vhamster will push his way up to the front and shake his MFing moneymaker all evening.

Usually it's annoying, but during TBO (Chicago, ONA) some girl is screaming "It's YOU!" after Prince sang "baby, baby, baby...is it him or is it me?". That was funny.

Ifsixwuz9 said:

WOOF! WOOF!

Do I hear a "meow"?

Carrie, is that you?

suomynona said:

:O Gooey, PLEASE be joking!

gooeythehamster said:

Was that really you??

calldapplwondery83 said:

Don't get me wrong - outbursts are fine, screaming is okay. But when it's CONSTANT & distracting...

Let EVERYONE enjoy the show & actually HEAR the , please! Ain't that what we paid for???

At least someone who recognises sarcasm when it hits them in the face.

Not the entire post was meant jokingly. I know people go nuts, but please, do you think any of these peeps will actually READ this?
Or actually REMEMBER reading this?

I do not think so...

Posting things like these makes you at least as nutty (no flame intended, it is said in a loving way) as the ladies you are addressing...or should the word be 'obsessed'?

JUST GO THERE AND ENJOY YOURSELF WILL YA!

And leave all other alterior motives at home. Don't bother me with it.

Having said this it sounds like I am angry, but I am not.

I am quite happy, just do not like people tell me what to do. That's all.

It seems everybody is going a bit potty in their own way...

And I really, really, REALLY like and even (L) Calhoun.

Your posts are very alike what I am thinking most times.

Props to you.

PURRR

Sorry if this thought is as annoying as a great song being ruined...

CalhounSq said:

Hehee.
Yer sweet. I understand where your thoughts come from; I also hate them broads that scream and claw their way up to the front, but I have seen so many threads about do this and do that or the opposite...

Let It Be?

People are already planning their 'close encounter' with Prince and there is nothing that will change their minds...

We just have to do with what we got.
