点评:Punch a Higher Floor and Tour Paisley Park Studios! Now THIS was a lot of fun and well worth the high price tag for the tour. There are three price options for tours, and we opted for the middle of the three options - the two hour tour, including the photo from inside one of the studios. For Prince fans, and even for non-Prince fans, this tour is a kick in the pants! This writer reckons that most anyone would enjoy seeing the hallways lined with the gold and platinum records. The recording studios, Prince's office, his caged doves, the 50's style diner, the memorabilia - - the tour really has something for everyone. Not only is the tour a celebration of Prince's music, but it really highlights his overall genius (including inventing musical patents), his life philosophy, his philanthropy, and his activism in favor of artists (including himself) to gain control of his master recordings. This is not a tour for kids. For adults, it's quite edifying, and it exceeded my expectations. I also enjoyed the gift shop, the coffee shop/ nightclub, and the very polite, professional staff. The place is absolutely crawling with security, which mirrored Prince's desire and demand for control and privacy. Upon arrival, you are given a pouch for your cell phone. Photo opportunities become available at the end of the tour (see photos). As you walk throughout the facility, the breadth and depth of Prince's imagination and creativity create a very uplifting feeling. Our tour guide, Mina, was very good, and clearly a devoted, knowledgeable fan. I am immensely glad we went here.
翻译:敲开那扇“高级”大门,参观佩斯利公园录音室吧!这次参观真的超有趣,即便价格不菲也绝对物有所值。参观套餐共有三种价位可选,我们选择了中间那个——时长为两小时的参观行程,还包含一张在录音室内拍摄的照片。无论你是不是王子乐队的粉丝,这次参观都绝对会让你大呼过瘾!笔者认为,绝大多数人都会喜欢观看那些挂满金唱片与白金唱片的走廊景观。录音室、普林斯的办公室、那些被关在笼子里的鸽子、具有50年代风格的餐厅,还有各类纪念品——这条参观路线确实能满足各类游客的需求。这场参观之旅不仅是一次对普林斯音乐的致敬,更充分展现了他的非凡才华(包括他申请的各项音乐相关专利)、他的人生哲学、他的慈善事业,以及他为帮助包括自己在内的艺术家们重新掌控其录音母带所做出的努力。这并非适合儿童的参观项目;但对成年人而言,它极具启发意义。它超出了我的预期。我也很喜欢那里的礼品店、咖啡厅/夜总会,以及那些彬彬有礼且专业的工作人员。整个地方到处都是安保人员,这也体现了王子对于掌控权和隐私的渴求与要求。抵达后,你会收到一个用来装手机的袋子。游览结束后还可以拍照留念(见照片)。当你在园区内漫步时……普林斯丰富的想象力与创造力给人带来无比振奋的感受。我们的导游米娜非常出色,显然是一位忠诚且博学的粉丝。能来这里,我感到无比庆幸。
