Geocache Description:


THE GEO CACHE IS NOT AT POSTED COORDINATES.

REPEAT DO NOT GO THERE

What you will need to do however is to answer the two simple questions below and after some quick math, you will have the final coordinates. 

Then to get to the cache........

As a musician, Prince was always one of my favorites.  Through the years and changes, somehow his music was always welcome:  the beat, the vibes, the killer lyrics.  Tragically he was taken from this world too soon.  Now he is one for the ages, and so many generations will enjoy his music.  So Prince, here is to you and to one of my favorite songs.

 

Final Coords can be calculated in this Manner:

N33 35.ABC

W83 50.DEF

For ABC:  How many weeks did the Purple Rain soundtrack remain at #1 on the Billboard Chart in 1984-85?  Take this number and add seven hundred seventy-six.  Call this even number ABC.

FOR DEF:  Prince played his heart out one final time in this city.  Take the number of letters in the name of the city multiply by three and add one. Next add 200  Call this even number DEF.

PLEASE HANDLE CONTAINER WITH CARE AND REPLACE EXACTLY AS FOUND.  You will know why........
