Here here! This is how we find new artists all the time, right?? It is okay to be honest about it.

However, I will freely admit I enjoy it a lot when I am the one who "discovers" a new artist first.

If I see you promote this band once more I'll ban you for spamming.

On what grounds is his response to you rude?

Joining this forum to promote a band is against the rules. You have posted about this band and posted the same videos in several different threads now. If Urban, myself, or any other moderator believes you are here primarily to promote this band then we can, and will, ban your account.

Urbans response is actually a warning to you. He didn't need to give you that, not if he believes you are going to keep finding opportunities to advertise and promote.

When you can naturally drop them into conversations about Coldplay, Prince, Ellie Goulding, Fleetwood Mac, Hot Sprockets as well as tell us about them in threads such as Music Can Heal, What You're Listening to and Last Bought or Downloaded - all within your first two days and 30 posts?

You can take this all as an insult if you want but I'm letting you know that regardless of what you say, this is excessive, this amounts to advertising and it wouldnt be tolerated forever.

And unless your next post here is about Prince, I dont wanna know.

oh fuck off already

nobody is interested in your fucking band

I've said all I have to say. I've made you aware what will happen if you continue to do what you're doing. This thread will now return to its original topic.

Name them or have them post here.
You do that I'll let you mention this band as often as you like.

This is a thread about Prince, period.

To answer the question that was originally posted, I will say that he is one of the best all around Musicians ever. A risk taker, a multi-talented artist, a good actor (Purple Rain is a good example of 80's film making...we'll forget Under the Cherry Moon, though), and someone who can write for others without sounding like he's throwing away out takes. There was a time when I thought that he was releasing way too much in The 90's, but even then it was with the talent and skill that's all his own.

Don't worry about it, I'll be deleting all the non prince posts when she doesn't come up with that list I asked for.
