All this is true.

On the other hand, I personally know of one fanatic, a male, who moved to Minneapolis with the express intention of getting a job at Paisley Park. This person went there constantly, left many resumes, and made a pest of himself but, in the end, he achieved his goal and did end up working for Prince for a number of years. That it happened still amazed me, but apparently it can. Or rather, it could. The situation I described occurred a very long time ago and things are radically different at PP now vs decades ago and I think AnonymousFan should accept reality, not "go visit" Prince and avoid disappointment and major embarassment or perhaps the police getting called, or maybe all the aforementioned.

Just wondering though, AnonymousFan: should you "stumble across his residence", how will that work insofar as communicating your ideas and 'business plans' to Prince? It's not like he'll be outside tending his garden or sitting in a lawn chair in his garage drinking a beer and watching his other neighbors (that is a popular pastime here in Minnesota in the summertime, true - but I don't think Prince is into that. ) So will you run after him if you see him arriving/leaving his house, begging him to hear you out? Will you tape a copy of your ideas and plans to his door? I'm very curious how you intend to get across your ideas or business plans in a professional manner, in the scenario/s you presented...

Well, I'd rather not chase him or shout. That looks agressive and I wouldn't wanna come off wrong. I figured walking and talking at a normal tone and pace would be most okay. I'm pretty non-threatening in basically every way and I have no negative intentions for him. I planned to knock on the door or something or leave it on his lawn if I got no answer. I figured maybe a bodyguard would approach me before I ever saw him. In which case, I'd give it to one of them and ask that they give it to Prince.

You're 18, and female, good Lord, Prince may welcome you in and then want to write songs for you to sing

Oh dear, a stranger turning up out of the blue with "business plans". You realize he's had 40 years of this happening to him?

If you're young, attractive and female I hope your actual intention is to join his harem of "collaborators" , that'd be slightly more based in reality.

If you ever want to meet Prince I would do it officially if the chance ever comes up. I hope he will do one of those 'ultimate meet and greet' packages in the future. Like bands such as Kiss and Fleetwood Mac have done. Even though the tickets are sometimes over $1000 USD. But there's always the problem that he won't live up to your ideas of him.

I believe Prince did that in the past - was it Australia 2003?

Nice prank.

"Don't worry - I won't be creepy or anything" . . . honestly, would an obsessed fan say anything else?

This OP is disturbing.

Don't do it.

No, do do it! And keep us updated plz. I want to hear how this goes.

He asked for ideas when it came to distribution on Twitter and every time someone suggested something to him, he was like "do it yourself." So I did. Then, he started going with the God awful idea of fans selling his stuff out of their homes/stashes. [Edited 4/11/16 8:38am] [Edited 4/11/16 8:39am]

I HIGHLY recommend you do not go to Paisley Park stalking Prince. According to your ORG profile, you are an 18 year old child obviously trying to pursue Prince. If you truely have some form of advertising idea and are concerned about it being taken - you should have it copywriten and presented by an attorney which is the professional way to handle it.

I am a friend of Prince and have been distributing HitNRun Phase 2 CD professionally on www.Funk4U.com globally over 200+ orders successfully and quickly. I think you need to do your research and stop making false assumptions.

Do not go to Paisley Park to stalk Prince.

"I'm going to visit him" - Like to see you try

Prince HATES stalker ass fans, he will have a phalanx of guards watching yo every move once u get 2 PP studios.

.

Assuming most obsessive stalker fans are likely to be single and crazy overwight women with cats for friends, I would be too. Anomymous fan are you 400 pounds and single with a cat called Lan Choo or live in the Ertha Mae Jones projects?

Aren't you describing Michael Jackson fa..... Never mind.

Ouch..

.

Like many others here who are not immune to Michael's brilliance, I realise my original remarks were cutting....

FFS!

All these people going on about stalking.

Must be a "Merican thing.

Anybody with an idea in time or miles? I've never seen Prince in concert and I'm super young compared to the rest of the fan base and due to Prince being sick with "influenza", I'm starting to get worried. So, this summer (I assume he might be back in Chanhanssen then) I'm gonna fly up to Minnesota and try to meet him (don't worry - I won't be creepy or anything) at Paisley Park or stumble across his residence. I've got business plans and other ideas that my professor says are pretty good so it won't be like I'm just there.

Tighten up that security, Princey. Another one's on the way....
