Prince appears to be recording and filed for a new trademark.

The trademark is &Y. The doc thinks it is for Andy Allo as & is short for And and you add the Y to make Andy aka &Y.

Not sure why after I copy a link over here I can't copy the text but it is frustrating. Sorry guys.

You know Dr. F is hard up for Prince news when he's making stories out of org threads.

Wait. The trademark thing has been posted already? I didn't see it. Sorry.

I don't know if that has or not. But the stuff about Prince recording, being seen in LA, Andy's 1973 Strat and the Opus all appeared here first.

OK confused still. So the thing about Andy's strat was not from her facebook page but here? She said it here first before her page?

oh boy, Tamar part 2 . Sheesh yogi. Was hoping for a new Prince Album. O well..

Gah.

not this again.. enough with the proteges...

&y = Andy, there was a pic on her FB with a description ''&y reclined''

&Y......I just can't even comment on this anymore. But what I will say is that she's the dumb one. Prince is already a mega-star. She's the up-and-coming who is putting all her eggs into a basket with a hole in it.

And why? That's what I get when I sound it out, but also when i think about this.

Maybe it should be &E, But..."and why?" fits much better anyhow.

As in, "And Y do you feel the need to do this again, Prince?"

All of Prince's female "proteges" are very pretty and all seem like very cool people. All of them. I have nothing but respect for each and every one of them.

But, geez, she has to wonder, "will my album be as good as Bria's? As good as Mayte's? As good as Carmen's"

I hope so.

Prince Recording, Opus Arrives, &……….Y

We hear Prince has been in the recording studio lately. These rumors put him recording at his studios in Minneapolis, Paisley Park, and also in Hollywood recently.

We do not know if he is recording for himself or someone else but we will share that with you shortly.

Remember in April of 2009, of a Prince Opus book for $2,100? We sure do and 2 and a half years later, the first book has arrived! It was to be a limited edition of 950 books.

Thanks ot brad for sending us this; here is the guy who ordered it sharing it with the world;

Now what about the Coachella DVD? (Crickets chirping.)

OK, now back to Prince recording. Andy Allo, who Prince has taken a musical liking..and perhaps other likings to. Andy posted on her Facebook Fan Page about waking up next to a 1973 Fender Stratocaster next to her. We can only guess who put it there.

This is where it gets interesting. We were given a tip from an unnamed source over the weekend of Paisley Park filing for a new trademark at the end of September. Paisley Park as we stated earlier is his studios and what he does business under.

The trademark? &Y. Get it? &Y. & being the short version of And and the letter Y. Put it together and you have &Y which is Andy. Ahh Prince. Only you.

So are he and &Y....I mean Andy recording together? Only time will tell but that trademark listing for Entertainment, Live, and Musical Performances is sure interesting.-DocFB

Shouldn't it be "&E"?

Quick - to the Copyright office!

Actually, I think if I type &E© that will do it. Just to be safe:

&E ©2011 Greg Schroder

&e ©2011 Greg Schroder

Alright, let the money flow to me!

^^What does the old "fingerprints" gag have to do with Andy's trademark?

Wait...nevermind.

&Y...really? What grade is Prince in?

People already judging before they even heard anything.

Typical.

Ummmm...I don't have to hear anything to know that &Y is stupid.

Leave it to Prince to make sure he isn't out-dumbed by the Original Sevenven.

I am speaking about the trademark idea, which is the only thing I commented on. I haven't said a single word about the recording so what are you talking about?

I'm not even talking about that. That's not even that big a deal.

I'm talking about the people complaining about the "rumored/upcoming/whatever protoge/collab thing that may/may not happen"

Understand?

It's because they're used to it, unfortunately. Things really shouldn't have to be that way.

I get "ampersand why", when I sound it out.

I wouldn't call Andy a protege" She can hold her own and has been long before Prince. Just wait to judge.
