Go to the website now it says: The page cannot be displayed. Hopefully the problem will be fixed by tomorrow! And if the site is being updated they should have posted it somewhere on there saying that it would be down for awhile. Then we wouldn't have gotten so uptight about it.

Thank God!

Somebody needs to keep the Business running a bit smoother. Who handles the fan-club angle? He needs more help. It's alot of work. My Tourbook was worn and old and the box was damaged. You gotta Care! I certainly do and I wouldn't send this Shoddy Quality to Fans as it reflects Badly on Prince and he was Always a Perfectionist. He needs to get Better Merchandisers because the Quality of the Stuff use to be Better. He has to Care about this Again.

It has to come back to him ultimately. It reflects on him because it's an extension of him and it's his product. If u bought Baked Beans from Heinz and they were mouldy inside u would complain about Heinz, not some lady who packed it. Prince has to be responsible for what happens with his club, it's as simple as that. It's not easy running this sort of thing (even badly as Prince is doing) but if u're going to do it u have to do it right. Prince isn't. He's a good musician but as a product the club fails and is of poor quality too often.

Sorry Natasha, your idol is useless at something.

Prince cares about fans in the sense of fans as a general entity, a body of people, but he would never have the time or the interest to care in fans as individuals because this is not how his business works. His job is making music to sell for money and he can't be dealing with every little individual fan when he has a job to do, sell product. Unfortunately this also means u will never mean anything to him other than dollar greens.

I would help him with anything but I don't work for him so what can I do? He does Need to Notice and take a First-Hand look at what's Happening. I Know he's busy and hires people to do these things for him,but maybe it's understaffed or just done too fast. People need to Care about things if Their Name is on it. He needs to Oversee things and give his stamp of Approval or have Someone else in Charge of these things for him.

Of course,what is he gonna do Agonize over us and our Lives? Please that would be crazy. Like he Said You Better Get Your House In Order! Meaning take care of Yourself and Yours and Don't Worry about Him.

Yeah I gotta agree with natasha. My ONA booklet was all bent and looked as if someone had thumbed thru it. The packaging was pretty lame too, no jiffy bag with padding just a large envelope which meant the box was damaged on most corners. I suppose what counts is the CDs and they are excellent!

i e-mailed them. they said it is temporarily down, and to try back later...

Once NPGMC give the box to Fedex...and Fedex throw it around and damage it during delivery...how is this Prince's fault?

That isn't Prince's fault at all. I had told the NPGMC that they should package with Bubble wrap or use Peanuts or something because of this problem. It needs to be cushioned in the box not just thrown in without any Care or Regard.
