Who's from Minneanpolis? PLEASE forgive me if I misspelled the city. This is the first time I've had to write it out. The question is are there any Prince related sites there? Kind of like Graceland? Is the club that's in Purple Rain still there? How cold does it get? Can I stay with any of you that live there?Just curious. SO WHAT IF WE'RE CONTROLLING ALL THE OIL, IS IT WORTH THE CHILD DYING 4?

you almost had it right--one "n" too many. The question is are there any Prince related sites there? Kind of like Graceland?
not in the graceland-type category, no...paisley park's still around. Is the club that's in Purple Rain still there?
yes. How cold does it get?
very. Can I stay with any of you that live there?Just curious.

The club from PR is still there?
Is there any Prince memorbilia in there or anythin'? That'd be so cool. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

That'd be so cool.[/color] that nasty hard rock cafe that mpls just opened across the street (block E -- ugh) might still have some purple rain trinkets, no? if 1st avenue had anything at all prince related on their walls...well, god knows they would sell it in a hot second! think they wouldn't? that club has been nearly shut down so many times...and i think they still pay most of their employees about a buck an hour. | |

yeah, they have like this big display case upstairs with a bunch of shit in it... if 1st avenue had anything at all prince related on their walls...well, god knows they would sell it in a hot second! think they wouldn't?
they have one picture of 'im hangin up in this little display case in the vip lounge, and that's about it. that club has been nearly shut down so many times...and i think they still pay most of their employees about a buck an hour.
i know...i'm surprised they're still around, especially since they've been goin through some tough times lately. | |

If you know where to look, you can find Prince's/Andre's boyhood home, 7 Corners (as seen in Grafitti Bridge), the house used as Prince's in Purple Rain, Calhoun Square, Uptown, First Ave., the old NPG Store, the old Glam Slam Club, Lake of the Isles & Minnetonka, Prince's current house, Paisley Park etc.
You'll need a car 'cause all of this is pretty spread out. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |
