Every month or two there is a post speculating about whether Prince reads the threads on the org. How about at his next concert members have their user names printed in large letters on t-shirts and try to sit near the front. As a bit of bear-baiting, you know Prince wouldn't pass up an opportunity to have a dig at some of our posts!

It's a message board, sweetie.

There's no way I could do that and not get thrown the fuck out.

Will you pay for those shirts?

smh.

And the point of this nonsense is, exactly...?

Hahahaha, that reminds me of watching a marathon. Lots of people that run are doing so for the first time, so they'll have something printed on their shirts like, "I'm Joe. Root me on!"

So there's Prince, rocking out on "Guitar" and screaming "I love you Rodeo, but not like I love my guitar!"

LOL, yeah. But then again, I always yell out the names of those runners, and they always smile, so who knows?

Who did say he didn´t visit us time to time?

Prob. from time to time wants to know what's being said about him, or the people that work for him want to know what we're saying or doing. I'm pretty sure he is going to be drawn more towards the negative stuff even if he doesn't want to read it.

But journalists usually look for new news on the message boards, and if something gets out, they usually throw it right out there, and then he has to respond to it.

For all you know, he's posted here under an assumed name and wanted to toy with some of the org members, but doesn't want to give up the anonymity. But what would've been cool through the fan club would've been to give them access in the studio to see what he was creating at the time, and some of the live performances at Paisley Park. I think it would've been cool if he did some sort of series like "Live at Abbey Road" broadcasting different artists performing live from there.

For now, it's just about playing live and continuing to record new material, and as time goes by and gets control over the master tapes, find a way to keep that out there selling. He should be selling CDs at the shows, but think he's due for a follow up compilation covering everything after "The Hits/B-Sides" or a complete "Singles/ 12" collection" covering everything.

Watch this: Hey Prince, buddy, we know you have it in you to make another classic album. Just listen to your earlier albums and understand why we love them so and go to it. If Bob Dylan can still crank out five star albums, why not you? Are you admitting that Dylan is a better song writer?

Remember, you have people like Cee Lo and Amy Winehouse musically kicking your butt. Aren't you miffed about this?

When Andre 3000 puts out an album that makes Sign O The Times look weak doesn't it get your juices flowing?

All we want is for you to use the talent God gave you. Show us God's glory in your song writing. That's how you prove that God lives within. Thanks purple minister.

Your friend, Freaky.

No. Prince doesn't visit this website because he doesn't care what everyone thinks about him. He does not waste his time in things like that. He is superior to all of us. He is like God. He already knows everything.

Prince thinks everything he puts out is another classic.

Well, I hope God is not expecting payment for His services.

If most of you can flush $77 down the toilet on his website, surely you can cough up a tenner on a t-shirt! . Pay for you indeed!

Fist-fight with Prince?

mmmhm.

i highly doubt prince gives a damn what we say on here lol if he even knows about the site.

he probably doesnt even go on the internet, seeing as he thinks its dead and all.

Say what you will but I'm convinded Prince has himself on Google Alert, and when that doesnt "ping!" often enough, he Googles himself.

There's no way in Hell he missed this place, if I found it (electronics run away in fear from me) - then he found it! He's just a hypocrite about it.

Prince does know about this site, remember he sued? Lol i doubt he visits often but yes he probably does visit from time to time and his people probably visit too

that some people here would think their posts so important or memorable that Prince would take special note, even to the point of recalling their username.

Also, Prince isn't dumb...he would recognize a ploy such as this as one designed to get his attention/reaction, and imo that right there would cause him to pointedly ignore it and the people involved, and pass on the contrived 'opportunity' to take a dig. I'll be the first to say I believe Prince himself indulges in manipulation and powerplay, but I think if he believes HE'S the one being manipulated, he's not going to respond.

Prince is human just like the rest of us.

It's actually odd to me when people assume musicians and other public figures, don't surf the internet. The whole world is online, why wouldn't they be too.

Plus, human curiosity is a strong thing. Think about it - if you had forums and websites purely about you and your work, there's no way you wouldn't end up there from time to time to see what people were saying about you.

You never know............. but then there have been instances............ oh

There are certainly a few on here who don't need to be. Their IQ is that of that brown funky stuff!! You know who you are!! lol....

You're right, though.... if Prince were to come here, or have someone come here, they would only have to be here once to know that "certain" so called fans aren't worth a crap and are probably working for Tony M.
