Hey all, I'm a lifelong fan who was on a.m.p (mostly lurking) in the old days, and was very active in the old Paisley Park chatrooms on AOL back in the day — I still have chat logs! Also did my time on PPML and if any of you remember the DMSR fan site, I helped archive thedawn.com there, including the copies of Prince & Mayte's wedding program. And I've been friends with Ben and Val and lots of other folks who run fansites since forever. I'm moderately well known in tech (have done some startups, used to write for Wired) so Prince's history with everything from the CD-ROM to all his websites has been an obsession. Also, I've worked in media a bit so I know a lot of fellow fans that way. Glad the chat with Sam and Scott and Dave was interesting; I'm hoping to do more like that in the future. | |

NPGMC:
I discovered the "Musicology Stem Remix Competition" late.... I linked my mix there, and the next evening I received a NPGMC Private Message (basically) saying,
"Please, take (the links and the tracks) down now....However you "Chopped" and "Screwed" the stems."
Nobody could download my mix.. I made sure of it.., but I deleted my message. Others had done something similar to promote theirs, but I after about 15 minutes.. I felt it was better to get rid of it.
I thought..."Could it be?" "Nah......He's about to start the tour...No way."
No "U" or "2" were used..

I was told years ago that he did visit both the org and housequake, and even posted on rare occasions. whether this next part is true or not, I guess we will never know... but I was also told that some of his songs have direct quotes from the fans on the sites. | |

Did he visit all the forums or just the prince music one? Baby, you're a star.

I don't know how P could not browse a site like this. If there was a whole forum dedicated to discussion about me, I can't say I'd have the self-control to not peep at it when no one was looking... | |

That love4oneanother website screengrab is pretty funny. Nice to see my html in there -- even if it was god awful. . It was fun playing with the root directories of thedawn website. Occasionally you'd come across things you weren't supposed to be seeing, post it in the chat -- and watch it disappear. | |
