3121 perfume. Love the scent and how I imagined Prince smells most of the time. "Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise."
"We had fun, didn't we?" -Prince (1958-2016) 4ever in my life | |

The pure joy the music brings me. The curiousity that it evokes. And the false belief that I can sing. [Edited 4/27/16 16:53pm] | |

For me it's my tour program for the Act I show. I got to see him at the Warner Theatre in DC. Originally I had balcony tickets, but met some girls there who had orchestra pit tickets and I bought their spares. 8 rows away from the stage, two rows ahead of where Mayte sat before the show began.
Well, I guess my greatest possession would be that memory then, not the tour guide. | |

A few things that come to mind: . I have a few 3121 perfumes still in the plastic shrink wrap case thing. Emancipation mobile that was in record stores. I have a few posters I love.
. The first two are framed & hanging; the latter is not. . I was also lucky enough to get a copy of Controversy with the poster. I have 3 Chains O' Gold comic, too. . Those are some of the things I enjoy most. " don’t really care so much what people say about me because it is a reflection of who they r." | |

The music. 99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment | |

For me, it's just memories... -Seeing him at Glam Slam in Minneapolis in 1994 (my first show) and watching Mayte and his chemistry onstage... that was the night he premiered P Control over the loudspeakers at the end, and I just remember laughing as he got Mayte to dance to it. -Dancing at Paisley Park in 1996 as he just stood and watched everyone from the side. The DJ played an amazing set, and I remember dancing away at 4am to Gonna Be A Beautiful Night and other classics. -The ONA shows at the Warner Theater in DC in 2002... the first 30 minutes of Rainbow Children / Muse / Xenophobia... it was musically as daring and amazing as I've seen any artist ("if you drove up here in a Little Red Corvette... you might be surprised what you gon' get). I was so happy when the DC performance of Rainbow Children made it onto the ONA Live album. No Candy 4 Me | |

My Purple Rain purple vinyl 12". I have more more collectable items, but I played this when I lost my virginity. I'm not going to declare whether I lasted the full nine minutes. . | |

My Parade poster that hung on my teenage bedroom wall...and my memories of seeing him in concert three times. I close my eyes and I can see that stage setup from the Lovesexy show here in DC. Shoot, I'm going to start crying... | |

Cloud guitar, sign o times stage prop, chain hat, tamborocca, tambourine, autographs and vinyl but most of all memories of soundcheck and seeing live shows and Paisley Park trips. What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet? | |

'Love God' guitar plectrum, thrown in my direction right after his Purple Rain solo at Celtic Park, Glasgow, June 1992. God, I was still a teenager then! | |
