would it really matter to him if you said something? i mean, he'd still have your $$$.


the best way to say something is to NOT pay.

Nefretiti, I am also tempted but think I would feel like a tool on my own as the people I am going with don't want to fork out the lot and my husband has given me the green light to go but not with him as $2,000.00 is way too much.
I am in 2 monds about the whole thing .. does anyone know if photos etc are allowed in the meet and greet?

chances r, ur meet and greet would b the equivalent of an American Sound Check.

U would come n an hour early, and sit n the orchestra part of the stadium, Prince would sit on stage facing u.

If u r n such awe as 2 4get 2 ask him anything, it will b ur loss.
if u want 2 shake his hand or ask a question ASK!!! HE WILL NEVER OFFER, but it has been noted that he never says NO.

since u PAID 4 the privilege, he may even allow u 2 give him gifts.
flowers go over well.
original art does 2...he does NOT like murals of himself made from old magazine photos, keep those 4 urself.

HE IS, OR WAS, VERY PARCIAL 2 DOLPHINS!
sculptures, drawings, pictures, candles, jewelry..etc.

he is also very ntrigued with things u show him, or do, like ur own song, music u do right there, poetry, etc, as long as after u do it, u do not try 2 make him take it. if he asks 4 it, then u give it up!
if u request a hug or a kiss, and he says yes, and most times he will, if u r not slavering at the mouth, don't attack him, or nobody else will b allowed 2 approach him.

how do eye no these things? this is some of the stuff from all the soundchecks eye have been 2 here n the USA...

oh yeah,

he is JUST LIKE THE NPGMC...ask him something 2 personal and he will shut down just like that, and u NEVER NO what is 2 PERSONAL 4 prince. LOL!
...AND?

It really wouldn't matter, he'd have all your $$$ already. Keep ure Rolex on the hand u don't shake with or on the hand u won't hit him with.

I'm repeating myself here but,there's no FRIGGIN' WAY
I'd pay $1000 2 sit on stage with the dude.

Love his music and style etc, but I'm not a total yokel.

Last year I had an invite 2 go 2 Briz, meet GENE $IMMONS (KISS),
shake his hand and get an autograph for $200.
I had no problem turning that down.

I'm actually glad that option's not available in BRIZ.
I firmly believe that if u get that close 2 ur heroes, they might disappoint u.

This will all blow over, and we'll get on with our lives, but it's definately tarnished P's rep here in OZ, @ least 2 the diehard fans (fams).

WHEN HEROES LET U DOWN...

When you convert the money isn't it less than a thousand dollars? Even though I could afford it, I'd feel a little foolish.

Dont do it! I think we're seeing why he doesn't have alot of friends, and why is career is hanging by a thread.
You have to separate your musical appreciation for his work from a objective look at what type of person would do something like this.

You people have supported him when no one else would and he repays you like this. He owes YOU! believe it or not.

Money matters now! It sho didnt matter yerterday. Just when you think that you have enough,thats when it all up and fly's away...So steal it from you fans?...Ops I mean family or friends..yeah right!!!

Maybe he should give one of the on-stage tickets away as a prize in a contest. Give a poor fan a break.
