This case contains a really useful bit of Prince merchandise....it's a:
Coaster
Ice Scraper
Mirror
Keeps cats/birds/dogs off gardens
You can signal for help using the sun
and in real emergencies you can put it in a cd player to scare off attackers or end unwanted dates early.

Probably candles, and all the usual tour stuff, but that is not really dumb (apart from being dumb enough to pay the high prices). I almost bought a chair from the NPG shop cafe in London after it closed down.
Luckily my girlfriend at the time talked me out of it.
I do have one of those chairs from London, bought it a few years ago, it is orange and tan color. with little holes in the bottom and top. round top and round bottom. I can not remember how much i paid for it. but it is something I use. |

I am pretty sure I have a few of those, those bottles of water was at least $ 2.00 to $3.00 a bottle what a rip off, but I bought a few just to stay hydrated. |

At least you are getting good use out of it, mine would have sat in the corner in an already small flat.

Oh, I know, I know, I know....
I mail ordered for a prince symbol pendant back in 1993 - it looked shiny and ace in the picture, just like the real deal.....when it arrived it was on a plastic 'gold chain,' that barely went round by neck and the symbol itself was gold plastic and no more that 2cm in length - It would have been funny but I'd waited nearly 2 months for them to send it and I was so excited.

that's dreadful! I had a (metal) symbol pendant, all the gold rubbed off it after a week and it turned my neck black where it touched! Classy! blah blah blah |

I still have a couple of those Xenophobia and a couple NPG bottles with the water still in them. I think the NPG bottles were from the 2000 Celebration. And yes, it was hotter than hell and the water was expensive. Were you there the night Prince brought everyone to see Minority Report because the Paisley Park AC was still busted? They also cut the price of water in half after a day or two of sweating our collective balls off.
I'm not interested in the bottles, but I would like to make an offer on the water inside them.
Orgnote me. |

All good uses, but I would add a disclaimer, at no time should this item be used for what its was intended for, playing, it can cause ear gangrene. So what are u going 2 do? R u just gonna sit there and watch? I'm not gonna stop until the war is over. Its gonna take a long time |

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. |

I bought a symbol badge/pin thing that was made of the same stuff.
I can't remember if I bought it from a concert or from the shop...it broke the first time I tried to attach it to anything.
ooh, and a weird Neo Manifesto viewfinder thing that was like a strip of negatives that you held up to the light to look at the pictures.
That broke, too. |

Vest investment thi - a lobgsleeve black top with Gold NPG logo from the Camden store...bought it 1995 from for £10 and wore it and wore it until it was faded, had holes and only used for sleeping in. Put it on eBay IN 2008 as a knackwred item and had to beg people to stop bidding at £50 because I felt so guilty. |

Oh and I bought a black SCOOP neck top,like the ones he wears in Grafitti Bridge with the gold chinese characters on the arms.
That top only looks good on Prince.
Never managed to wear it out...I tried but never got past the mirror.
I think it was quite expensive for 1990, too! |

That is absurd and brilliant at the same time.

When Prince did some promotion for the Gold Experience album in England [I think it was back then, 1995? sorry at that time I stopped listening to P's music] he played in some tv shows, and one of those shows (White Room) gave away the backdrop used during the show with 'the new power generation' on it. I still have the magazine with the pic of the winner with the backdrop in the backyard - o wait maybe she's an orger. :boxed:
