Dr Funkenberry: Prince’s Emmy Afterbash!

We are still trying to figure out if what just happened…actually did happen.

Did Prince just just throw an impromptu Emmy party at his house? Did it turn into Karaoke night with some celebs taking or sharing the mic with the host? Oh yea, it happened all right!

A review is coming shortly, we just need to get a little bit of rest as he wore us out.

(This was sent in and we can confirm it happened and we will not so patiently be waiting for the full review. Stay tuned.-Dr.FB)

More reporting on parties no-one can go to. Unless there's video footage or audio released, what's the point in inviting bloggers to the parties so they can brag about how generous you are to fellow celebrities?

The first of two reports:

Prince’s Purple Funk Electric Emmy Afterbash!
Posted in Entertainment on September 22, 2008 by drfunkenberry

(sent into us at www.drfunkenberry.com)

Purple Funk Electric Emmy Afterbash! That’s the best way we can describe the vibe at Prince’s late night throw down. The guests, the outfits, the music–all far hotter than usual (and we know Prince’s parties set the bar high EVERY time.) The air was abuzz with electricity of the funky, purple, nothing-but-fun kind, everyone was in on it, taking the vibe even higher.

The night opened with the sexy Satisfied, followed by Prince at times laughing his way through the comedic Beggin’ Woman Blues. (If you haven’t heard it yet… just wait!) Musicians just having fun doing what they do: priceless.

The crowd was rapt, rockin’ all night as the band rolled through (among others) Cream, U Got The Look, A Love Bizarre, Lady Cab Driver, Let’s Go Crazy, and a few covers such as Be Happy, Let’s Go and Long Train Running. (Marva King took the lead on this one.) Come Together became an anthem of interconnectedness, as the crowd chanted come together over and over. It was quite moving.

The show closed with Purple Rain with Prince kicking it off on keys before switching to guitar. Everyone singing “woo hoo hoo hoo” in unison made us want to break out the lighters and wave em up in the air like back in the day.

The room may have been filled with TV stars, but they know how to groove with the best of ‘em!

These television luminaries, most of who seemed new to the purple party scene, it was the most fun they ever had, or even the best night of their lives. many even thanked the staff as if they were the stars - true class actors and actresses at the soiree. Kristen Chenoweth was so overcome with joy that she left in tears.

Now how’s THAT for a good time?

We want to thank the person who sent this in. We have another review from a different perspective that will be posted shortly. -Dr.FB

I don't understand why we have to hear about every party that Prince throws, I mean after all it's not like we're invited to any of them. After a while it's like the same old stuff. eek

Don't hate on Prince because we can't attend his parties. He was like that in the 80s. It was in the 90s that he opened Paisley Park to his fans, but those same fans decided to record EVERYTHING and post it on YOU TUBE in 2007.

So, for over exposing Prince I guess we are getting our just punishment by not being invited to his jams. The next time we see Prince in concert, we will appreciate him and his music and not want to share the image with the world.

Bullshit. Most of the stuff that finds its way to youtube was pro shot. I ain't saying he's wrong to be pissed. But how did that stuff - which his people shot - make it out. Hmmmm?

And I don't believe for one second that it's the youtube stuff that keeps him from performing for the great unwashed.

Please, people will always bootleg Prince's stuff. He hadn't been to London in how long? And I got a boot and a DVD of every night.

I don't really care about the parties. he's not doing anything musically that I wish I were there but it just seems this is being trotted out as a "ha-ha" you common folk weren't invited. It's lame when you say this is not what you stand for.

You hit the nail right on it's head. I know I wouldn't invite any of you either if I were in his position.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I noticed that too. When he does do regular shows again, I hope he pulls that out cause I will go nuts if he does!
