Thx for this great review of the Lotusflow3r happening and sharing the event with us. Also thx for keeping your lips sealed on what's to come on the new site. It'll all be revealed soon and that's the great thing about it

Sounds like a fabulous experience.

(Hope you guys gave true constructive criticism when they asked for feedback. Seems like it would be hard after being treated to such luxury. Would be almost rude to not say 'everything is amazing.')

Can someone enlighten me with the inside story about RDHull and his namecheck? Who is he and what is the story? Must be important person to the org. I'm guessing? Please forgive my ignorance, but I'm curious. thanks!!

lottielooloo1968 said:

This is questionable. This person has yet to answer the question as to how he/she was selected ...i.e lotusflow3r sign up/email nor has the question been answered about how Prince was dressed. I'm not sure i'm ready to believe this "Ultimate Prince Experience",,,,may be waking up from a "Wishful Dream Experience". I'll wait to read the Huffington Post or USA Today.

I'd like to know the story too!

awesome. congratulations

Thanks for sharing. I'm sure you all had a blast.


It's funny to read all the people commenting about RD getting his namecheck b/c that's the first thing I thought, too.


For those in disbelief, I'm guessing PEJ and others can't give away too much info because they had to sign a confidentiality agreement or something. Plus if they were asked to not share certain things and did anyway, it would ruin other fans having this type of opportunity in the future.

PS. Did Rhonda play bass at any point?

veronikka said:

All I know is back on the NPGMC forums RDHull used to always joke around about wanting Prince to give him a namecheck. It was like a huge inside joke that everyone knew about. I don't know how it started though...

Two Orgers and a former Orger!!! We are the shit!!!

RD got his namecheck!!!!

And Pejman is one of my favorites here. I am so happy for you, love.

Envy is one of the deadly sins isn't it..... well congrats but i can't help being jealous.

i'm happy u wrote about ur experience. Wish i could have been there.

DevotedPuppy said:

Ok, but what IS a namecheck? Think RD will send us HIS story about last night?

4bjb said:

4bjb they already answered that question in a previous post. The answer was through the lotusflow3r.com website. This is a legit post.

holldoll5 said:

RDHull was a long time orger (not sure whether he still posts, but I'm thinking probably not). RD had a long standing desire to get a namecheck from Prince, either at a show or elsewhere. (Name-check: having Prince call out his name.) Apparently, he finally he got it!

Thanks for the post PEJ and congrats! It sounds like you had a very good time.

DevotedPuppy said:

No, she didnt

lottielooloo1968 said:

Bria didnt sing
Yes he still has short black hair

benni said:

Thanks for expaining!!

Vendetta1 said:

The namecheck ain't the half of it. You know if Prince shook RD's hand, he was lickin' it all night.

I just hope he resisted the urge to hump the speakers.

holldoll5 said:

Nope never.

Amorbella...
I know you have a fabu time! What an experience, eh???
I do not know what I'd do if I was able to actually go to his home and jam.
Wait...yes I do! I'd enjoy ever little second of it!
Do you live in LA, or somewhere else? Just curious how far you had to go.

I've met PEJ , cool guy and longtime Prince fan.PEJ, congrats man.
