^ you are right! that doesn`t look much like Prince to me


I logged on just to say that there is no way this is Prince! Did they get a Prince look alike to pose for this shot? And why is this coming out now? How long ago was the 21 night thing? 2 years ago? Who in the hell is going to buy this?



hello (Eye lazer treatment needed) thats prince

I have to admit I am truly disappointed at this...why? How can you charge interest to your fans and make them pay more in the end for those who can't afford to buy it up front? I love Prince and respect what he has done for music over the past 25+ years but this is taken it to another level. I wish he would just tour the country and make his monies that way, he will clean up just like he did for the tour in 2004. That's all the fans want is for him to keep putting out great music and visit the road every so often....Peace and keep it righteous.

I am calling myself a fan and I am TELLING you there is NO WAY that is Prince. Believe me. . . I spent most of my adolescence staring at the man and that is NOT him. I am a graphic designer and illustrator so I have spent much time examining him closely. Yes the face is blurry so it's a little hard to tell, but for me the dead giveaway is the HAND. I could draw Prince's hands from memory. . . that is NOT it.

Are you mad?

To completely lay this to rest:

1. I WAS AT THE SHOW WHERE HE WORE THAT OUTFIT.

2. That same picture is on the back of the new album set.

Stop dissing the Prince Opus. It's a high-end product and it's an honour Prince has been selected. he's the only individual rock star to have an Opus dedicated to him. There are only two individual sportspersons, Sachin Tendulkar and Maradona, whos will soon boast Opus books. The Prince 'No.1 edition' with the diamond symbol is the ultimate luxury item of the decade...it's another matter that we can't afford it.

So...let's see if I got this right...
It's okay for Shorty McPurplepants to allow his book to be bound in alligator skin.
There's absolutely no issue with that because he's a vegetarian?
"I won't eat meat and everyone else should do the same. But, as long as someone can slaughter an animal to make my book even more ridiculously and unnecessarily expensive...I'm good with that." (not a direct quote...but, it might as well be)

Looks like I'm right...
Vegetarians are self-righteous, ignorant, hypocritical assholes.

Whoah this is kind of harsh smile

I'm a vegetarian and am really opposed to the packaging on this thing. Now for Prince, being a vegan, to wrap it in skin is more hypocritical than I can poke a stick at.

Don't consider myself a self-righteous, ignorant, hypocritical asshole though. Just an asshole wink

To quote Zig & Zag ( eek ) - perhaps the alligator was dead before they killed it!

Or... the skin of a dead alligator was used (ie. NOT killed for the purpose)

it's insane that he would charge so much for something so commercial, but at the same time if i had the money to spend for such non-sense i would probably buy it. i don't think he's too concerned about those that can't afford whatever he puts out, because he knows that people will buy whatever it is. biggrin
