Newsflash: One Last Purple Jam For 2009…Paisley Park!

Paisley Park.

Paisley Park.

Things are about to warm up in Minneapolis for sure!

PRINCE is gonna get you hot.

The Last Jam of 2009:

11 P.M. THIS Saturday night at Paisley Park, you have to be there! Admission is…$40 at the door. (cash only.)

Also going on for the night is Love 4 One Another charities will be hosting a coat drive before the show. Please bring new/gently used coats, gloves, and scarves  to help those around Purpletown who could use a little warmth. They are also accepting canned and boxed goods and bottled water.

They say… Ur gift of warmth is xtra cool.. c u Saturday!

This event sounds too cool even in the Minnesota snow!

Also, I was told that members of Prince’s official web site: LOTUSFLOW3R.com should check the site later tonight, October 22nd for special member ticket info!

  7. WITHALLMYLOVE Says:

  8. 2elijah Says:

    How cool is that? Have fun Minny fans! I hope we get a snippet of the show on the LF site for those who can’t make it there.

  9. Sbacon1999 Says:

    Color me peach and black…and JEALOUS! Have a great time those of u that make it to the show. Can’t wait to hear all about it.

  10. Esther Says:

    For some reason I’m intrigued by this collection of coats of bottled water.
    Where are they going to send all that stuff? And how can LF members in Europe profit from this special member ticket with all this last minute info? Questions, questions.
    Now back to being insomniac at 02.15 AM in Amsterdam. Me and my nice Northface jacket are going around the corner and make a walk in the Red Light District – where there are enough homeless people hanging around who could use a coat. No bottled water, Amsterdam tapwater is perfectly fine.

  11. nancyb Says:

  18. Georgie Says:

    I wonder if Prince has fished some ‘gently used’ coats and hats from his cupboards? How lovely!
    Good luck to those trying to make the gig, ‘The Last Jam of 2009′ ?
    I don’t believe that for one minute!

  62. TC Spotlight: Toki Wright & Prince Says:

    [...] —So apparently Prince played Paisley Park this weekend. [...]

  63. fashionista Says:

    The concert on Saturday was incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was in a playful mood and had the whole crowd dancing all night long. Larry Grham funked it up for a few songs. He is a bass master! Bria Valente were there. She is so fine, its impossible to describe! You have to see her in person, pictures dont do justice. She wore a black dress w pink flower in her hair. Prince gave her some shout outs during the show. He said “Bria can you crowd surf I need someone to dance with”. He went to talk to her during Shelbys version of “Angel”. (Shelby is a powerhouse!) The chemistry between the two is strong, they are definately much more than friends ;) Forever in my life was the highlight of the night for me, it went on for ten minutes and we loved every minute of it. Prince shut it down, i will never forget this night EVER!

  64. ANNAMPLS Says:

    THANKS FASHIONISTRA-SO HAPPY U HAD A GOOD TIME. I’VE BEEN TO PP AND IT IS A TRIP AND A HALF! :)

    THIS SHOW SOUNDED AMAZING, HAD I BEEN FEELIN BETTER,I WOULD HAVE GONE.

    BRIA LOOKS SO BREATHTAKING IN HER PICTURES, I CAN’T IMAGINE WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE IN PERSON. PRINCE, WELL, HE IS PRINCE, AND THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER LIKE HIM.

    SO HERE’S TO MORE!

    THANKS FOR YOUR SHARING!

  65. mochalox Says:

    Doggit! I missed it!

  66. rigoman Says:

    Hey Dr.! Do U think Prince might be able to send a pic or two of the concert? Or even better..maybe a clip of a live song he performed! I would ask him myself buuuuuut maybe this would be the proper way. Don’t want to be a pest Prince.

    Dr. Thank you for your continued pursuit of brining the funk in news.

  67. Jill Says:

    I want 2 thank Prince 4 being such a gracious host 2 us, this past Saturday!!! Man U rock it (and YES, Ur hair looked GOOD!!!)!!!! It was a event 2 remember and I’m hoping that this is only the beggining!!!

    It was great seeing U again Mr. Hayes (Ur r just so easy 2 talk 2 :) !

    Finally, Thanks Doc 4 keeping us in the mix!!! Couldn’t have made this happen without U!!!

  68. Chocolatsis65 Says:

    I also want to thank him sooooo much *Without LOVE* really the Doobie bros ah man ur sooo cool i can’t even stand it!! I also want to apologize for bein a funky chicken instead of doin it (I wouldn’t have done it:))especially when I saw Snuffy up there darn! oh well hopefully there will be many more opps for that.

    And in case u heard me say YEAH when u said if anyone has a prob w/u n graham I totally knew where u were going with that n had just experienced some of those negative fans (I guess) outside and so It was like yeah THEY do so why r they here? thats what I meant, it just came out 2 soon. Of course I love him he brought u in and the love u show through ur music is truly a gift.
    That very topic came up outside so we were able to give a witness and tract, I love pointing out your lyrics to them, they so beautifully give a great witness about the New world. Thank u for being u being there never B another.
    I can’t believe the haters or maybe there just grossly misinformed to no fault of thier own showed up at all WHY? they just don’t show any respect drinkin and getting high and reeking of smoke, now I see someone filmed and it on youtube (unbelievable) grrrrr!!!
