Appeals court rejects 2 more would-be heirs to Prince estate
Be sure to watch the Sheila E. interview- she says she knows her and Prince recorded over 100 songs together that are in the Vault!
No, they don't take you down to the vault. Apparently the basement is crammed full of memorabilia that Prince held on to throughout his life. They are cataloguing it now but it will take quite awhile to get through it all and then they have to decide what to do with it.On your tour through Paisley Park, do they actually show you the Vauit? I suppose only the outside?
There is a video on Youtube of Ingrid Chavez showing someone around the complex and for the Vault they first take an elevator to the basement, then there is a short hallway with the bike from Graffiti Bridge, and right before the Vault there is a room with all the prizes he won. Was it still like that?
You'll never look at a tambourine the same way again and he sure wasn't singing about a car in Little Red Corvette.....I am reading a book about Prince -- I will never listen to Raspberry Beret the same again!
Nope, read that about LRC but haven't read anything yet on a tambourine. I's skeered.You'll never look at a tambourine the same way again and he sure wasn't singing about a car in Little Red Corvette.....

The oval building is called 'the egg' and Prince built it with the idea of turning it into a nightclub but the city of Minneapolis wouldn't issue permits for a club so he just left it half finished inside and hopefully the estate will be able to put it to use as another part of the museum.What is the round building that's separate from the rest? Here at the bottom:

Were you taken there too on your tour?
It seems some parts of the complex were inspired by the Tinto Brass film Caligula (1979). I knew of that film and its reputation for a long time - it played for months and months in the cinema when I was young (too young to see it). It never appealed much to me to see it, because the idea of an almost three hour sexfilm seemed kind of boring to me. But when I finally did, I quite liked it and even bought the dvd, which has a couple of different versions.
The violence is kind of cheesy and not very shocking (but I'm used to seeing loads of horrorfilms of course), but the film looks great. The costumes and sets were designed by Danilo Donati - who also worked with Fellini and Pasolini a lot, and designed costumes for the 1980 Flash Gordon.
Also the character of Caligula as played by Malcolm McDowell is surprisingly interesting. Helen Mirren who is also in it, said despite the controversy she never regretted doing it. It didn't hurt their careers also. Actually, Helmut Berger said he was up for the role of Caligula before McDowell, but he had already done a film with Tinto Brass (the apparently quite shocking Salon Kitty which I've never seen) and he didn't want to repeat himself.
