help an orger! Giving a talk on Prince in movies

Hi all!

I havent been around here, in like, forever!

Life is very busy at the moment...... I have bitten the bullet, and I am attending University!!!! woot!

anyhoo, in my study skills class we have to give a talk on a subject, any subject, and i have chosen P.

I am restricted to 5-8 mins (eek!) and so have decided to do my talk about Purple Rain....as this is the general response when u mention P to non- fans.

sooooo, do any orgers have any vivid memories, from back in the day....... did u get to see his concert live, were u in the crowd at seventh ave...... news articles on tipper gores crusade lol!!

any pics of promo stuff, (tix stubbs etc) i can use in my power point.....

thanks in advance

Tracy aka PRB

EDIT:

Brainstorming while trying to sleep sigh i decided to change my talk to Princes music in movies.

i have found these 2 links....

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002239/

http://movies.nytimes.com...ilmography

if u can add to these, id be forever grateful batting eyes

I was crazy in love with a guy.

And he was a big fan of Prince.

So, we watched the video's of Prince his concerts a lot. Just being good friends.

Because I was 13 and way to scared to tell him I was in love with him.

I got over the guy, however, I did not get over Prince. I became a fan untill today (26 years later)

I got attached to Prince his voice and recognise his music at the first note.

During rough times I fall back to listening to his music or watch concerts.

It just soothes me.

And I still adore a lot of his lyrics and agree with him on many subjects.

Even a lot of his spiritual references.

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

Well wasn't around wen it was released. However, ive showed 2 friends the movie and both friends like the movie thats as far as i think they would be willing to go. loved the music. Kinda cool to see somebody doing a presentation on purple rain but it would be more intresting if it was actually one of the other movies cause they are more underground.

You can get it on Amazon for a few bucks and it came the next day with

Prime.

I was 14 and my most vivid memory of the Purple Rain tour went a little something like this:

I can't remember a damn thing after that. lol

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

Where did you see that they asked about the tour? They wanted info about

the movies. Cute, but not helpful.
