And Tonight, the unveiling…
More prized than a trip to Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory are the invitations granted for tonight’s unveiling of Prince’s latest galactic web project, lotusflow3r.com . Press invitees include Steve Appleford of Rolling Stone; Benjamin Trott from Six Apart; Kat Corbett from KROQ; Danny Shea and Katherine Thomson, music and entertainment editors from The Huffington Post; Emily McKay from NME and Edna Gunderson of USA Today. Also invited to the secret soiree are 3 select Purple Ticket winners, whose names have been withheld to protect what’s left of their innocence.
The plan since the beginning has been to show the work to the press today, while anticipation builds for the official opening. Following the special preview, guests will be treated to an hour-long concert in the funkiest house in the Hills. After that, we hear the band plans to crash Clive Davis’ party with an Alicia Keys joint they’ve rearranged.
With a beginning like this, no doubt this year is about to be stellar!
(This sounds really fun. Purple ticket holders aka lucky dogs. Can’t wait to hear about it.)-DR.FB

Posted at 13:50h, 15 FebruaryI wish I had the talent to produce a good poster for the simpsons 20th anniversary contest. I love the simpsons. But at least there are others (as I see here) that share an interest still.

Posted at 13:24h, 07 FebruaryAll this fuss!!! If everyone would just relax and ignore him for a second…. He’d probably panic and do something. He’s loving this hype. He’ll probably wait until y’all give up and least expect it……..say all the mean and nice things you could possibly say……. then BAM!!!! The site will be up and running. lol
uuhmmm
Posted at 00:17h, 06 FebruaryYeah, I know but no one seems to be interested in allowing him to do them …so he sits here, admiring an artist.

Posted at 09:27h, 05 FebruaryI decided to be nice and not contact anyone this time. There are other more productive things that can be done instead. You do relize that right?
uuhmmm

Posted at 11:30h, 01 FebruaryIt’s unbelievable that ppl clearly still dont know what he’s about. (even after so so many years) They can look at a picture that’s so clear and pure and “in yo face” and still they don’t see it.. Unbelievable. (shakes head)

Posted at 10:15h, 01 FebruaryLawd.. Prince looks horrible. Look at those deep fo’ head creases, lol. Hair thinnin’ from all those years of conking.. *sigh*.. He still the man though. Unfortunately of what I’ve heard from him musically so far.. he ain’t hittin’ on shyt. Hoping it’s gon get better. As for his protege … she sucks. Not interested, sorry Prince. 😉

Posted at 09:01h, 01 FebruaryIt’s all good…no matter what your feelings are on the subject, we’re all waiting on pins and needles to see this roll out. And after 21 years of following the man, I still get a kick out of it and it feels like Christmas. I like that…Christmas in February….

Posted at 05:41h, 01 FebruaryI’m loving the anticipation of the site opening, the music is fantastic.
So many people can get exactly what they want NOW…we’ve lost the excitement of any build up to getting something..imo
Also, why so much hate in the comments! I really can’t understand it
