You're not a true fan

when:

- You don't own or try to own all the albums released
- For the albums you haven't been able to find, at least have all the songs on a perfect CDr with artwork and all.
- Could have gone to a concert but didn't go for some lame reason...
- Have no knowledge of at least some of the more important and well known unreleased songs.
- Do not take any interest in the man behind the music, which is necessary to get to know the music better.
- Invest some time in getting to know the Prince facts, like birtdays, release dates, relationships, the struggle with Warner Bros.
- Besides the albums, own the released video's and DVD's and are still searching for the Billboards and Romance 1600 video.
- Have a top 5 list with wanna-haves including the original Undertaker CD, the The War CD, the Hit'n Run CDs, a copy of Trojan Horse 88 on video, 51 hours, Strange Tales From The Rain and a cloud.

No one else can decide whether another is a true fan or not. You're not in their heart, are you?

Thanks for that.

What about if you think Chaos and Disorder is a big pile of poop?

i'd say this thread should be titled "You're not a true FAM..."

I have been into Prince since I was in 3rd grade and DO own every album and most of the 12 inches...I don't know release dates, stuff like that, nor do I pine away for bootlegs...hmmph, maybe I should be happy I'm not a 'real fan'

I don't think it's what you have piled on your shelves, it's what you feel inside...

I've been a fan longer that some true fans have been alive. I used to be really into his career, but I've gotten older, and with maturity comes other responsibilities and concerns. So Prince has taken a backseat, but he's still in my heart.

This coming from someone who didn't even know he was ever married, thought Mayte was fat, and has never seen what Sheila E. looks like? lol

Very good point. Sometimes other priorities come before the music. It doesn't mean that you don't still get that feeling when you hear the opening bars of "I Wanna Be Your Lover..." !

What a load of crap.



I am a fan of Prince.

It is true that I am a fan of Prince.

It would be a lie to say I am not a Prince fan.

I love Prince's music and have the music I have of him and enjoy listening to it.

I am a true Prince fan.

I agree with sawatdiikhrap. You can be a true Prince fan and not know every bit of useless information about him. And spend a ton of money on everything he has ever released. I think we all have a life outside of being Prince fans.

Damm, and I thought I was a true fan. Now I realise I've been fooling myself all along and havee been a lying piece of shit fan.
But now I have admitted that, I am also gonna cleanse my Prince Soul by admitting to:
Hating most of Emancipation, NPS, Rave and Grafitti Bridge.
Finding the whole name change thing rather tedious
Believing Chaos + Disorder is a good album, even though it was just "contract filler"

Will I ever be forgiven for these highly irregular non-true fan thoughts??
