One Nite Alone Box Set Tease!

I've worked for Best Buy over a year now. Recently I transferred to a different store, that was closer to home (Detroit). Yet I had to go through orientation, just like the rest of the 'New hires' disbelief The Manager made us all stand in a circle. One at a Time he asked us to step in the middle of the circle and state our name, favorite artist, favorite album, and dessert...

I stepped out; "My name is Verlin, but please call me Shaun or Blue, I hate my first name. My fav artist is Prince, my fav album is Sign 'O' The Times, and I love Peach Cobbler big grin"

After the group dispersed, my manager took me to the side and said...

"You a Prince fan huh? I got somethin for you"

"Really!? What is it?!" I eagerly replied

"Just some good news, come to my office after break."

I was waiting for him at his office after break, he entered and I had a seat. He got on the computer and showed me some sort of shipping report. "Basically a coming soon list" The Box set was on there! Right next to One Nite Alone Live, it said release date not disclosed...

I gave him a half ass smile, and said "Wow, thanks"

As if I didn't already know that mad...I wanted to pop him in the back of the head, for getting me excited...but I knew he was only trying to help...I guess rolleyes

Just thought I'd share...

Back around the third week in September I made a prediction that ONA...Live! would at the very least be in the mail to NPGMC members by Oct. 15th.
So much for my powers of prediction.

Is November 26th still a release date or was that incorrect info?

THERE IS NO RELEASE DATE YET!

Nov 26 was a date conjured up by a poster that likes to be seen as a know-it-all.

Check cdnow.com or amazon.com and when they post a release date, then you'll know.Best Buy doesn't even have a release date.


I'll bet the cd hasn't even been manufactured yet.
