if it werent for the org, the "hype" would have eluded me

I keep hearing people talk about how this album is being pushed commercially. Music videos, posters, magazine ads. Now I know I live a hermetically sealed existence in my dorm room, and I havent watched TV in months....but Im still alive, and at least in my town, Ive heard nothing.

In fact, if it werent for a random visit to the org a month ago, I would probably still not know about Musicology.

And if it werent for an old friend from middle school calling me on the night of the Grammies telling me P was per4ming, I still wouldnt know about it. And I STILL havent seen that per4mance. cry

AND...this is worst of all.....my father (who doesnt like Prince) taped the Matt Lauer interview 4 me. When he called me to tell me, I had no idea there was an interview!

I only found out about P being on the cover of Entertainment Weekly while I was at work putting the magazines away. And my middle school friend yet again called to alert me of the Jet article.

Now this is just sad. What am I to do?

I wish the org had an email news bulletin concerning Prince. I mean the big news. I'd sign up faster than you could say engelbert humperdink. Then again, I think that wouldnt be difficult. eek

mad j/k Neppie razz

At least you're here now, there's still time to catch up! Check Housequake for some recent video files (Prince on MSNBC & Tavis Smiley). The Tavis one is also @ NPGMC.

And he did a bunch of radio intvs recently, some of which are on the web. Check The Tom Joyner Show & KYLD (a Bay Area Radio Station). If all else fails do a search here or @ HQ to find the ones that are available.

If nothing else, get your hands on the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame performances - they're AWESOME headbang

Happy hunting! smile

Heard he did Guitar gently Weeps. Now being the George Harrison fan I am, and being the Prince fan I am---the two together makes me want to jump up and scream.

Does ANYONE know where I can see that per4mance? HELP MEEEEE!!!!!

I'm drowning in a sea of unseen prince appearances, and I dont even know where to begin! cry

Whenever you do see it, you are going to be in total shock and amazement. He KILLED it. I'm still excited about it when I think about that performance.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that
