Go to www.jazzmagazine.com. It's a before-1st April joke!!!

I'm so upset now.

J

NO!

Where does it say so?

That link redirects me to a French ISP website (I think?), and not the online magazine that has the article about the PP party.

The explaination is on the right above in the first page (in France, April 1st is the day for jokes and fake news).

This is the worst joke i've ever heard, God damn it!

jazz magazine

but lawd, they had a good majority of us droolin, i must say...

Amethist, you right, the link doesn't work. U have to write it directly...and it works!

April 1st??? I thought comedy was all in the timing.

Thanks, rld.

What a lousy "JOKE"!!!



Rot in hell, Jazz magazine.

It was a GREAT joke, if that's what it was. Folks are supposed to believe April Fool stuff.

Indeed...

Frédéric Goaty nous a fait parvenir ce bref communiqué :
« Les lecteurs les plus attentifs de Remix Tangentiel avaient bien sûr déviné : le compte-rendu du concert de Prince était bien notre poisson d'avril 2003, entièrement dû à l'imagination très (trop ?) fertile de notre vieil ami Peter Cato – bien réel ! Si Peter tenait tant à nous faire parvenir ce texte, c'était avant tout pour rendre à sa (facétieuse) manière un hommage au musicien qu'il “suit” depuis des lustres... Après les nombreux et très sérieux/documentés (du moins on l'espère !) compte-rendus des divers concerts et autres cd de Prince parus en 2002 sur le site de Jazz Magazine, le temps nous était semble-t-il venu de “faire un break” et de rêver un peu en compagnie de Peter... Souhaitons tout de même que quelques-uns de ses rêves se réalisent vraiment – nouveau disque, nouveau groupe, club enfin réactivé... En attendant, il nous a promis que son prochain compte-rendu princier sera 100 % authentique et s'excuse d'ores et déjà d'avoir donné des fausses joies à la sympathique cybercommunauté des admirateurs de Mister P. ! Mais il faut bien respecter les traditions, et celle du 1er avril n'est pas la moins réjouissante, non ? »

Vous pouvez maintenant lire cette rubrique en sachant que seul le compte-rendu "princier" était un Poisson d'avril...

See it's shit like *this* that would have me renaming my french fries and french toast to truth fries and truth toast!

Dang, now I have to go return my Louis Vuitton briefcase for a full refund in protest.

Bastids!!!

shit, reminds me--my eyeglass frames were made in france, i should return my shit in protest, 2!!! tho' i'll be blind as a bat, it'll learn 'em!!!

of course it was a joke, a PP party/show on March 8th and no posts til now??? with 200 people in attendance... c'mon guys there's so little Prince talk on this site right now that there's virtually no news and the events calendar looks like a Maceo site half the time! Dontcha think someone else would've been at this at reported it???

so XXcepshunal was right?
it is Ova?
everything it seems XX said was the truth.
I remember some AmethystAngel preparing a pie made of crows.
XX?

Soups On!

PaisleyPark7 is probably an Urban Myth as well.

What the fuck

You can't publish a "JOKE" for April fools day if it's not on April fools day.

This is not an April fools "joke" it’s just a lie and a fucking stupid lie at that. I'm not pissed off at the news, but I am pissed off that this is supposed to be "funny".

IT'S NOT A JOKE, its just crap.

Ahhh, ze frrrensh are zo foony!

No x 3.

Unfunny.

And I took an hour or so to translate this from french in english! I´m angry!

On a separate thread on this very topic purple girl said


I Do understand French and it doesn't sound like a joke

"Pour sa quinzième livraison, Frédéric Goaty nous livre (notamment) un scoop princier... D'où cette mise en ligne avant le 1er du mois d'avril."

means:

" For his fifteenth delivery, Frederic Goaty delivers (in particular) a prince scoop to us... that's the reason why we publish it on line before the 1 st of April."

If this is right then the April 1st reference in the article doesnt mean its an April Fools joke.

But hey, what do I know...!?

MattUK said:

That's meant to be part of the joke.

Has anyone actually contacted jazzmagazine about

this "joke"? I am gonna start boycotting them (don't know

how yet...) if it is a joke.

Soapstone said:

I like that description. LMAO.

NuPwrSoul said:

It can't be that bad a joke, someone's laughing.

LOL! And people actually believed the post to begin with?? I already knew Eric wouldn't have been in town anyway, but the premise of it just seemed like too much of some fan's ultimate fantasy and nothing real! Not saying it couldn't happen, it's very unlikely! I guess you guys just wanted to believe (and who wouldn't)...

I thought Eric lived in Minnesota?

NuPwrSoul said:

He just wasn't around THEN, that's all!
