You have "stood" right next to him on "a few occasions"? But have you ever met him?

i thought prince stopped signing autographs?? in the early 90's.


he has also retired, stopped touring, and
stopping playing the old hits hasn't he?

i remember him saying that a few times in the
past as well, but if you see him enought times
and catch him in the right mood.

I stood about 2 feet away from him as he left a club in San Diego after a hit a run show in 2001 or summin' like that. I've spoke to Morries Hayes TWICE...EXCELLENT CAT! He's extremely cool. I spoke to him in 97 at a show in San Diego and a second time at the aforementioned second show in San Diego in the parking lot of the same club.

i think the 5'2 theory is WITH heels. At musicology last year, one of my good friends danced on stage and shared a mic with him during LOTP....she is 5'6, was wearing flat shoes...he was in his heels, and she said he still seemed half a foot shorter than her!

at the concert the night before that, my step-daughter and i had front row, right where the steps lead down under the stage...when Prince wasnt dissappearing into the floor, he used these stairs so he passed by us many, many times. my step-daugther got to slap hands with him as he came and went...he really did seem so tiny! it was truly shocking.


how high were his heels that night? 4 inches? i cant believe he is really that short....


i dont know...she just said he "was wearing the heels". he wore heels off and on during the concert, and i didnt notice what he happened to be wearing at the time, but she did because she was standing next to him, and he still seemed so short.

jealousy is an ugly thing! - and so are some people!!!!!


are you calling me ugly? i was just saying...cause supposedly P doesn't sign autographs anymore, but you got managed to get some over the past few years.....

and why would i be jealous cause you got his autograph? i could care less. i have his music (along with all his other fans), and that is all that matters to me. I dont need an autograph to make me feel "more important".

No i'm not sayin your ugly, thats just a saying,
chill baby chill !
and if you read an earlier post of mine, that
says were i got them, only 2 were in the 90's and
it wasn't to brag it was to respond to this topic,
how close have you gotten,
i guess i should have said side by side so some
of you didn't read into it tooooo much.
as far as talk to the hand - if you still have a
prob with this after i have elaborated a little
more, then talk to my ass.

Well, at the Musicology Tour in Nashville, I had good seats, though not as close as I would have liked them of course, lol. He looked over at our section directly at me, and we made eye contact for about 5 seconds. It would'a been longer, but I think the woman sitting down infront of me noticed he was looking in our direction and she got up and blocked our connection! B*TCH!

i have managed to get close a few times
i have gotten his autograph a few times,
backstage at the purple rain concert
(1st concert ever), lovesexy album autographed
at a record store, last year at the musicology
concert in cleveland i was backstage and got my
custom made purple rain airbrushed jacket
autographed. and at one of the rainbow children shows
i was on the guestlist and and got my rainbow
children album signed (the lyric book anyway)

and on the jam of the year tour, i was also on
the guest list and after the show, some of us were
on stage when they started packing stuff up and i
touched the symbol guitar and heard someone say "hey,
don't let the boss see you doing that"


wow...those 2 autographs are the ones that "seem" so unbelievable. I haven't heard of Prince signing ANY autographs since like...1993 or something.. Prince himself signed your coat??? Is your coat a Ricco special? drool
lucky person you are...or perhaps...not lucky just...connected? cool
"not a fan" falloff yeah...ok

I had a plain denium jacket airbrushed with the head and shoulders of the purple rain cover and added the stud work to the front right shoulder and on the back over top of the artwork, i embrodered purple rain just like the album
and also added studs to the shoulder of the art work.
the way i got on the guest list, is a friend of mine works at a music warehouse and was asked by the paisley park reps if they were going to the show. and they get added to the list and instead of their name he put mine on it.
thank god

Front row, side seats, at a Wembley Arena gig - the one with Larry and Chaka.

Excellent during support. Got to watch Prince working on the soundboard for Chaka's set. Brilliant watching this man at work.... there's an old interview with Chris Moon when he describes himself and Prince as a octopus working at the mixing desk... it was just like that, Prince and, whoever was doing the sound for the tour, fiddling, lowering levels, upping levels, nodding to each other, smiling. Cool

THEN, during his set, I was the only person sat down and bored by YET ANOTHER version of the Purple Rain solo. I think, I may have imagined, I caught his eye... I at least like to think he saw me sat down. He looked a little pissed off and didn't come back to our side of the stage for ages... certainly not for the remainder of the song.

Fun times.

the closest I ever got to prince was at the last celly. twice in one week, well me and two other females from Hotlanta got to greet Prince as he was driving up in his Purple Prowler,He was picking up one of his body guards.Prince said hello to each of us we were standing right next to his car. I was very nervous, I felt like a school girl.I stood there with my head I got shy all of a sudden, Prince has the deepest tone you can imaigine, oops I spelled it wrong, His voice just made my body quake. I had a nice warm fuzzy feeling.that was on Saturday, during the day, the secound time I dressed up like I just walked out of Under the Cherry moon set.I had on 5 inch staked heels black, black fish net stocking, a black skirt with with poka-dots. and a very reveling black sweater. also I had on a really cute white berret,I walked over to one of his body guards and tapped him on the sholder and ask him if I could shake Prince"s hand he said alright, I shook Prince"s hand a very nice grip, Told him thank for inviting me to your House, He said you are very welcome.and then began walking away, when I was about 10-20 feet away I looked back Low and behold Prince was bending over and watching me walk. It felt wonderful.that was too cool. I hope one day I can get a hug.. maybe one day..... razz


why didnt u go back and talk 2 prince since u knew he was checkin u out? he isnt really ur type?

The first time outside Mike Todd's Room in 1986 ....It was so Cool. I told him I LOVE YOU..HE Went Up Against this Room....Stared at me like he was searching my Soul.....Saw it was Good and Smiled. I got this WEIRD FEELING of HIM ENTERING LOOKING INTO MY HEART.....It was SPOOKY..I Felt Chills. Friends came up to me and I wouldn't let them TOUCH ME Cause Prince Did this. Tears Ran down my Face. It was UNFORGETTABLE....I was NEVER the Same...It was SO COOL....It was GREAT.....

When I was 15 years old, I layed two huge speakers on either side of my head and played "Do me Baby" .....i swear I could feel his lips on mine....I could feel his breath on my chest and taste his sweet tears...for one moment he was mine.

Before, when it was more about feeling and less about knowing...yes, i wanted him more...but, now that I've grown to know him, I admire him for who he is and not what he does. It's not just the music, or the notes that walk beside it....it's the meaning behind the thought behind it. I wonder sometimes who he sees when he looks at himself in the mirror....does his eyes say the same thing to his soul as they do to mine? He's just a soul trapped in a mans body after all....I have often imagined him as a tiny old woman, almost nothing...singing a quiet hymn all to herself....would people make such a fuss at her then? But , as she sings, she looks up at you with those eyes.....It's not how much noise you make....it's what you do with the noise that's made.
