They quoted the org, that's cool
5. WILL PRINCE GET FAT? Prince's possible descent into a late-career "Fat Elvis" stage has dominated message boards since news of his impending Vegas arrival first hit. A few comments posted on Prince.org: "Dead like Elvis!" [2freaky4church1] "Prince has just become Barry Manilow; this is not the raw funk/rock legend of the '80s; this is a tired, generic R&B artist looking for some money in a newly commercial career." [Spookymuffin] "Well, at least he's not doing state fairs." [AsianBomb777] Another user, with the screen name McGee, even posted a doctored photo of Prince shaking hands with the Vegas-era Elvis. A few supporters quickly sprung to Prince's defense: "I didn't want dude to go the path of Fat Elvis and Barry Manilow ... But any sensible person that has done their homework about the club and the gigs should know that this is a totally different situation." [murph] "People saying he is doing Vegas for the money makes no sense; he could earn far more quicker through another tour without doubt ... Prince, as usual, is taking the less-trodden route for a star who can still command stadium audiences." [metalorange] "People that have no sense (or knowledge) of history have decided that it is cheesy ... 2 play the Vegas circuit. They either have no knowledge or interest in the story of Vegas, and some of the great musical events that have occurred there." [Giovanni777] | |

It's nice to hear Prince.org is mentionned in this article. I mean so many orgers are devoted fans and they need to be recognized.
So I say! Long live the org!!! | |

Great shout-out for the org there!
And @ those illustrations!
"...but he does have other commitments in 2007 that will demand his attention." I'd sure like to know more about what THOSE are! "I would say that Prince's top thirty percent is great. Of that thirty percent, I'll bet the public has heard twenty percent of it." - Susan Rogers, "Hunting for Prince's Vault", BBC, 2015 |

Phew, glad to see I got quoted defending Prince rather than being critical! I'll still be allowed into concerts, then?!! | |
