Deleted Prince tweets

In my notification tab on my phone, I will get a notification that Prince or @prince3eg had sent a tweet. I will click the notification and twitter will tell me that tweet cannot be retrieved. I will look into It and will discover that the tweet is unretreivable because it has been deleted.

Is there a way to retrieve these tweets that twitter tells you are unretreivable? I know sometimes people will have save the somewhat important tweets in DC eenshots and on occasion, post the tweets screen cap image as proof of some 'happening' or clue to an album or songs release or a projects commencement. Simply put, is there a website where ALL of his steers are compiled and/or saved for retreival?

I just saw a tweet about some funk being binaries or something to that effect. A YouTube video went along with this tweet. It ran around 2 AM-ish on the 18tb...10/18/15 2:00iah.

Is it oldprincetweets.com or something? Inquiring minds wanna know.

You could try an archive such as the waybackmachine to see if a particular tweet was still available when the site was visited. For example:

https://web.archive.org/w.../prince3eg

Speaking of tweets he's mentioning now that his Instagram is coming back. How exciting.

Yes, apparently PRINCESTAGRAM is returning biggrin

Yes, there is a way to see deleted tweets but the only way I am aware of is to like THE PURPLE STREAM Facebook page which re-publishes all tweets from key people ine the Prince community as a record of them.

Follow a page on Facebook called the Purple stream, all the tweets automatically post onto there and if deleted they stay on there.
