Proposed Wall Around Paisley Park Sparks Prince Fans’ Outrage This is about the petition started by Kim Huston.

With all the memorabalia, instruments, and to say nothing about the music stored there, it makes sense to secure the facility. Even Graceland has a security fence. | |

I'm going to predict right now that an opaque wall will not being going up at Paisley Park. The current chain link fence will most likely be replaced but not by a tall wall where you can't see inside. My guess is it was proposed by the city but not wit the full approval of the mayor or city council. In fact the mayor re-tweeted someone who said they didn't want a wall around PP. Londell McMillan also tweeted #NoWall. There will be a compromise and I'll bet the chain link fence is still there when PP opens next week. Paisley Park is in your heart

**Fans** -- You're not building that FUCKING wall!
All jokes aside, I can see how theyre proposing it probably just for security reasons..... but don't Paisely Park already have a fence or something??? Either way it's probably not gonna be built because of the out-rage. There's other ways of using security without a giant wall in the way as rogifan said they can just replace the fence with a better fence if yhey are concerned with the fence that is already there | |

Maybe they won't build the wall.

According to the Star Tribune the chain link fence will not be replaced by an opaque wall, provided people stop attaching things to the fence. http://www.startribune.co...395471351/ The tributes that were taken down will be photographed and digitized for an “online wall” that fans can use to post additional remembrances. The museum also will include a digital exhibit of fan artwork and other Prince tributes. Paisley Park is in your heart

Then I guess people really need to observe the request not to attach things to the fence if they dont want that wall - that would be the best outcome Thank you Prince for every note you left behind 💜 | |

I'm pleased that they've found another way to accommodate fans' tributes. | |

I don't know if it is a good idea but if they turn it into a wall it should become a prince graffiti mural for fans to share their prince art. That's what happened to u2's old studio in Dublin before money men redeveloped the area. Maybe that can be the compromise. | |

The compromise is: don't put anything on the fence, and there won't be a wall. Sounds decent enough for me. | |

I agree. The chain link fence will still be there next week, but I predict that its days are numbered. More than likely, it will be replaced with a nicer, more substantial fence, perhaps wrought iron, but I doubt that it will be opaque. | |

More than decent imo. They have put it out there, freaked everyone out about it, and now say it won't happen unless people don't mind the rules. That puts compliance on the fans to ensure the fence remains chain link. But you can rest assured that many of those who feel entitled to do whatever the hell they want in regard to all things Prince will defy those rules. The blame will land squarely on the fans when/if the fence is changed. Smart thinking from the powers that be to have dumped it squarely on the fans. I hope people do the right thing.

If fans do break the rules and force them to replace the fence with a wall then they should name it THE GREAT WALL OF PAISLEY PARK | |

I totally agree, I read somewhere, I can't remember where now as my brain has been purple overloaded that they have taken pictures of some of the items removed from the wall and that they are going to include them in the museum, but they are also going to incorporate them into some kind of virtual wall that fans can add memento's to. I'm hoping that in addition to this they also find a spot at Paisley too to avert those hard of hearing fans that won't stick to the rules.

Replacing it with a nicer fence that still lets people see inside is fine with me. We'll never know exactly how serious they were about this opaque wall but it seems they got the message.

Guess this means fans will patrol around whatever fence/wall ends up remaining to remove other fans' items.
There are a few org members who love to impose their faux-authority who could crown themselves with that duty.
Give me a break sheep. | |

Looks like a wall is the least of their problems. | |
