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!!!!
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 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

If you love Prince, I love YOU!!!
I used to be all precious and possessive about my love for Prince, but I have learned to share I'm the mistake you wanna make | |

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. | |

The other day I read the book "Music on Film: Purple Rain" and it was ok.
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. 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. | |
