I think P would have a ball in Austin. Who hasn't?

Everything is bigger and better in Texas. Living in Texas might make Prince 5' 6".

Oh yeah, here is a Yee Haw!!!! for 'yall' that think Texas is all boot scootin.

Excuse me while I ride my horse to Crawford ranch, eat some red meat, watch the Cowboys, polish my boots, and take a nap naked with the Texas flag wrapped around me.

No one asked you to follow us. You probably couldn't keep up, anyway.

Hey, what if I told you Prince already does live here? How would that make you feel?

The stars at night...are big and bright (clap clap clap clap) deep in the heart of Texas...



The traffic is horrible! It's hot! And I left my Ex in Texas! Louisiana is a homely place...Everyone's friendly and the weather is nice...I'm not saying that La is a better place to be but you can always go home...Plus if he comes this way, we'll feed him and he'll get back to a healthy weight...

I'm sorry to get disrespectful on you GiGi319...You're right that was uncalled for...Just for the record, I do not like President Bush either, even if he is from Texas. Actually it's kind of embarrasing that he is. I just went on a rant when you said "Who in their right mind would want to live in a state where the president is from"...or something like that. Thats like putting all Texans down because the president comes from here. Prince is from Minneapolis and to me that's the only reason I would EVER visit Minnesota. To visit Paisley Park. I love the old school Minneapolis sound. So yes I think Prince should be where his hearts at...If it's still there...Texas is still my state, though...Go Cowboys!!!

Read the original quote before you reply next time
-
"if prince is a hit in texas he will be again everywhere else because the rest of the country follows us"

You got so jazzed up to defend your Texas pride you forgot about the facts. Hmmm... who does that sound like? ;->

It's all good man - just having fun.

Prince should move to Minneapolis to start all over again

vman4639 said:

Fair enough.

How would you feel if I told you Prince already lives in Texas?

Angelic1302 said:

Wow, well that wasn't my experience at all when I went to Louisiana . I found most of the people to be less than friendly which was dissapointing because I was expecting that since it was the South, people would be a little friendlier but I was wrong. I also found that the place was way too humid for my liking, I could never live there. Louisiana is unlike any place i've been too, I just found the whole place to be weird and it just gave me a bad feeling which is kinda funny coming from someone like me who was born and raised in New York City but Louisiana just rubbed me the wrong way . I did however LOVE the food there lol and that's probably the only reason I would ever go back to visit.

And I know i'm getting way off topic here but oh well....

where is Shelby from?

So now we have Tamar, Morris Hayes, Cora, Joshua: all from Houston, Texas... it seems like Prince has surrounded himself with Houstonians. Not even counting Beyonce.

ufoclub said:

Wouldn't it be cool if Prince owns a home in Houston? And what if it was next door to Beyonce's? Wouldn't that just ROCK?

Yeah, it would...

Cinnamon234 said:

I guess it's what part you went....I live in the deep south, in Lafayette...Sorry for your experience, look me up next time you are out here and I'll let you know where to chill at...

RodeoSchro said:

ha ha , I don't think anyone's listening to you...
have you guys in Houston fallen back in love with America's Team yet?

scotmann said:

No kidding! Well, it'll just be my secret. I'm not even going to bring up his ranch...

Gotta give the Cowboys their due. They've got a helluva team. But there's one thing that keeps coming up.

What is it?

Oh yeah:

19 - 10!

(I know it's sad but it's all we have.)

bush is not from texas at all he is from connecticut.he just claims texas as his home.i currently live in houston texas but i was also born in connecticut but not the rich part like bush.if prince moved to texas he would probably move out right away because he would not be able to deal with the humidity.in my opinion it wouldnt help his career,but i guess we would never know unless he does it.

Have you not read ANY of my posts?

If he sounded the same / was the same - I'd like him the same. That makes me wonder though, do cities in Texas have a sound? Minneapolis has a sound, Seattle has a sound, Memphis, etc. Honest question - is a city in Texas known for anything musically?

vman4639 said:

Well, Burleson has Kelly Clarkson-whatever that sound is

vman4639 said:

Texas' SXSW music festival is known around the world a this point (attracting bands from all over). That's the biggest musical force in Texas. Even Prince was around for that last March. Remember he also played a private gig in Texas (in Austin), and played a Tamar show in Houston.

As far as putting a mark on music.... it all about the dirty south rap these past few years... rappers from the ghettos of Texas are all over MTV these days.
that and Destiny's Child (Beyonce)

Oh yeah... and Kelly Clarkson is from Houston, and also Jessica Simpson is from Dallas.



in film news we got Wes Anderson, Robert Rodriguez, Richard Linklater, Matthew McConahey, Rene Zellwiger (I know I am mis-spelling) and of course Quentin Tarrantino has been hanging out in Austin since 1994 when I watched a screening of Pulp Fiction with him sititng in the middle of the audience.

The late Selena was from Corpus Christi. Known for Tejano music.

this is a dumb topic prince never lost his career and texas aint worth moving 2 its too damn hot and country if prince wanna maintain his career he do what he wanna do and if u dont like it get off the boat

...I'd been told that more serial killers come from Texas than any other state...

PurpleJedi said:

and more people in Prince's band... hmmmm.

RodeoSchro said:

I don't know if Prince could stand to live in Houston...the humidity would keep his "doo" jacked up. He would have 2 start wearing weaves for sure.

Cinnamon234 said:

I understand where u are coming from. I'm from Texas and have visited NYC, Orlando, Los Angeles, New Orleans, etc. and find that Louisiana people are a different breed (compared to other cities). Mind you, I grew up about 40 miles from the border of Lousiana and went to Shreveport on a regular basis (which is probably one of the most dangerous cities in the country), but I found as you travel into the heart of Louisiana, the people get nicer.

I guess he isn't too worried about it.
