Does Prince live at Paisley Park?

I know it's his studio but also thought he had his home there as well or am I wrong?

Prince has always been able to avoid homes without chainlink fences and a parking lot.

He sleeps in the vault which doubles as a panic room.

I think he does at times, he demolished his house he had built in 1986 sometime in the mid 2000s if my google earth imagery is right.

.

I think he also decamps to LA/Cali in the winters and regualrly rents places there, plus I am not sure if he goes to the house in Marbella at all.

Yeah I got that idea too from the AOA back cover where he is walking around his turret at Paisley Park like some person does around their home on a Better Homes and Gardens magazine.

.

And I remember reading years ago, about how he dreams and music comes to him, so he gets up and rushes in the studio to get it down and also if his toothbrush hums a tune etc.

.

Forgot about him selling Marbella, maybe for the cash or to erase Mayte from his life.

Besides his MEGA,plush, apartment inside Paisley Park, prince also has a bedroom in Larry's house,which is not far from Paisley Park.

And just how do you know about his MEGA plush apartment inside Paisley Park, or his bedroom in Larry's house, have you seen them, been there, what?

I've been a fan since 83, and was a pretty enthusiastic fan in those early years so I read everything I could about Prince and when he was building Paisley Park (I also have always lived in the MN area so I'd hear things that way as well) and it has always been my understanding, from articles I read way back when PP was being constructed and word of mouth, that there's ALWAYS been an apartment located in Paisley -- not one that was something else turned into an apartment, but a specifically planned and built apartment for if and when Prince wanted to spend the night or guests did, etc.

So I'm confused by your comment. Not saying you're wrong, it's just that it's completely different information than what I've always been told or read.

When he had the house on Galpin, literally right down the road from Paisley Park, I heard many stories of him driving back and forth between his house and PP at all hours of the day and night. So I'd imagine at that time, if he was sleeping at home and woke up with an idea he wanted to get down immediately and wanted to do so at Paisley, he could just whip over to the studios..he'd be there in less than 5 minutes (the way he drives). Also I'm sure he had plenty of recording equipment at his home, essentially a studio there as well, if he needed to rush to get something down and recorded before he forgot/lost it.

That purple tour bus has been parked there for years. Doesn't indicate that a tour is near.

Absolutely hilarious notion that PRINCE (a multi-millionaire) might stay in a spare bedroom at Larry's house.

This thread is nuts

Of course, there is/was always an apartment at Paisley. Can't imagine that apartment being suitable for Prince to live in full-time though.

.

People are speculating that Prince created more living space at Paisley... which is certainly possible. The place is huge. There's an entire wing of old office space that might be used for living quarters, for one.

.

Prince could live in that egg-shaped building which he apparently had built for nothing. That could make for one hell of a condo!

Don't worry... I'm relaxed.

You don't see how your saying the back gate is open and there's a purple tour bus there could be interpreted as implying a tour could be in the works?

.

So many people today tend to deflect things or get defensive at even the slightest hint of criticism. comfort

When you go back to read my original post I was in no way specific on which gate was open. Please just stop trying to be so literal to find a fault in every thing, ok? Unless you're going to be more helpful for us to get inside, consider not replying. Thanks pal

wth are you going on about? The tour bus would be by the back gate, so I thought that was the gate you referred to. Was it the front gate that was open? Because that changes everything. rolleyes

.

The thread is asking if Prince lives at Paisley. Every post (except for yours) was on that subject. You apparently were chatting with others about Prince possibly playing at Paisley? Then you respond to me that "we're" discussing whether a performance could be happening at Paisley.

.

There are some later stalkerish posts about getting inside Paisley and approaching Prince, even insulting his height. Joking or not, it's really not that cool.

Reporting on the question asked I would say is on topic. You misquoting me and insinuating I was talking about a tour is where you went wrong, ok? You know what else he has, a sense of humor considering I also said I didn't have the balls to actually do it. You were the first to post off topic to correct me instead of adding substance to a conversation and misinterpreting things. Relax its a 90 degree day in Minneapolis, it's ok to be wrong sometimes

You're missing my point. Your post that the gate is open and you see a tour bus certainly can be interpreted as possibly preparations are underway for a tour. You can't acknowledge that? What's the big deal? Instead, I see you telling me to relax, stating that I'm wrong and suggesting that I don't reply on here.

.

But you know what. I have a sense of humor too. Which is why I'm smiling as I respond to your post. hug
