Honestly.. I usually never say nun about shit like this.. cuz I couldn't care less..

.. but truthfully speaking... Grown ass men getting their panties in a twist over their fucking username on an internet forum is fucking lame. Period.

Thanks Shadows and Sandeep, two of the few real people left on this forum. Anyway I didn't get the new name I wanted but at least it was changed back, which is better than nothing. Although if whoever changed it back is reading, I still want Funk Elektrik as my new name.

As for this:
Please! Casey logged off in shame because I proved to him how broke his idol was after he deleted my original post of me telling him so. He's fucking heartbroken. He'll be back.
If you SERIOUSLY think Prince is broke because he forgot to make a $200k tax payment, when he makes $10 million a year in songwriting royalties ALONE (in addition to all of his own hits, he makes a lot on The Bangles "Manic Monday", Sinead O Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U", Vanity 6's "Nasty Girl", and Sheila E's "The Glamorous Life" which all still get a fuckton of airplay around the world) because he wrote all of those also.

He makes at least another $5 million a year from rappers who have sampled him like 2Pac who sampled Prince on loads of songs.

And when he releases an album/tours, he generally makes an extra $50-$100 million. For example, the Musicology tour was the biggest grossing tour by any artist in '04, grossing $87 million. In 2007, he did residencies in both Las Vegas and London which netted him at least $100 million.

Mr. P Nelson has nothing to worry about regarding his tax situation, other than possibly needing to hire a new accountant.

Im not speaking for you. Its clear you are one of the few speaking for the names to be changed back. Thats all :)

As you can now see, the world is aligned again. Much as the golfing world is now that Tiger is back

Yes, that is only a fragment of the amount of money he makes.

Yep, Nectar. Is it a good venue? I looked on their site and it seems good. VIP lounge, outside patio area and whatnot. I'm not 100% sure on the date yet because our agent is saying Independence Day, but do people really go out to clubs on that day? And it's a Sunday also so I don't know if it would be better to play on the Monday. Although, my wife said that more people than usual will be out on the Sunday night as the Monday will be a public holiday. I'm not sure, I need to discuss it with the promoter and find out which day would be best.

I think July 4th is a bad day to hold an event (unless you're Springsteen) Most people are home for the holidays at that time too so university crowds are small.. I dunno about that particular town though

Yeah, that was kinda my thinking. I've spent two July 4th's in the US and both times we spent time with family rather than going out.
