Big Happenings in November

During September & October certain orgers kept dropping hints that something big was in the works for November. That November would be a month of surprises.
What we got was the cancellation of The Chocolate Invasion, one download, announcement of shows in December & Prince voted in Hall of Fame.
Was that the big news we were waiting for or were these just baseless rumors?
Maybe I just expected more.

The 'big thing' in the works was The Chocolate Invasion.
Unfortunately that's now been put on hold.

Yeah TCI & The Hall of Fame would have made it a big Prince month.

Oh well - back to living in darkness.

On hold "Indefinitely". Which means it's never seeing the light of day. I'm pissed.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I refuse to believe it will never see the light of day.
I just refuse to believe that.

What annoys me is people were saying "Big Things in November" & I believed this time they knew what they were talking about. It didn't feel like a rumor - it felt like they knew things & were feeding us clues. And if Prince & Co. hadn't screwed up on the packaging they would have been right. So many times rumors haven't played out & for once the grapevine would have right. I feel like Prince crapped on our parade.. Thats who I'm pissed at.

You're right - normally I don't believe anything until its confirmed - I guess this time I was weak & let my defenses down & jumped the gun.
I should have known better.

November isn't a bust for us Orgers in Hawaii. I am about to burst with Xcitement waiting for him to come next month.

Of course, I'll be spending the next month praying that the shows won't be cancelled.
