ON June 9th...that's how it's done. And that is how you do a poster. Not three Prince heads on a plate colored in with colored pencils. (creepy image for a celebration on his death day.)

I went last year and it was a blast. Gorgeous weather, just a true celebration of the artist. I'm hoping I can make it this year as well.

Love the poster.

Spike is a class act with real heart for Prince. would LOVE to go.

I REEEALLLY wanna dj at this event but Spike won't return my email!

It's a little bit better than the cerberus poster, but not that much.
It's still amateurish Photoshop. The nod to his worst cover ever speaks volumes.

Fucking corny flowers, fucking doves,
makes Prince look like your Grandma's home interior decorator.

A creative mind requires creative visuals. Good visual artists abound.
But I don't expect a once-a-genius-now-a-system-schmuck
like Lee to know where to find them.

Not my Grandma's - if she ever had one. As ridiculous as Lee being a system-schmuck. NOPE to all of the above.

Its so still life aesthetic..its cool for being so basic and bare. Maybe thats why I like it.

It stems from my huge disappointment at his Michael Jackson albums documentaries.
I was expecting so much from him, and they are total crap,
industry ass-licking from start to finish, no substance whatsoever.

I guess I'm never satisified: pissed off when he was a maverick when he should have been as popular, if not more, as Tarantino, pissed off when he's finally mainstream (digested by the system), as if his original rebel spirit has been dried out.
I guess money ends up fucking everyone, no one gets saved.
True art needs struggle.

Yes, seems we were spoiled by Prince. He surfed that edge for so long, and made it look easy when it was anything but.

Xactly.
I guess I'm just another sucker for the Laura LiPuma and Jeff Katz days.
I'm tired to see cheap artwork around Prince.
Especially when it's this lazy (that geometric Photoshop plugin is definitely old news,
and the picture choice is debatable).

Useless rant aside, have fun, guys! Any Purple Party is a good party.

I don't understand the headline.. what...??? "bashing".. where?????

Yeah - ok, I am danish, non english...


Strange to call a poster for "bash", isn't it....

Not really strange. A "bash" is American slang for a big party. On the other hand, bashing something means hitting it, bashing someone means saying bad things. So... it just proves, once again, that we Americans are world-class language bashers.

haha... Ok!


Oh I see, my mistake then.. thanks for clearing up...

I had a wonderful time at both of the previous versions, and will definitely be going again this year.

(I have to pick out this years appropriately purple outfit).
