Which was the best nite so far?

Hi guys. This is my first post, although I've been reading the forums religiously 4 weeks now.

For those of you who have been to more than 1 nite, which 1 do u think was his best and why? Eye went to the 28th main show and aftershow and P totally blew me away. That aftershow was something else! So stripped back and funky.

I'd love to have gone to more nites but I live way up north so its really difficult to get down to London. Still, I'm gonna try and come down at least once b4 the 21st.

Anyway, just wanted 2 say hi.

Between the opening night, the 7th and the 28th. I think the 28th had the strongest start to a gig by far.

Fingers crossed the best is yet to come! biggrin

Been to 2 aftershows. Sept 1st was just awesome. Only been to 3rd Aug for main shows so far - great but no piano/synth or Raspberry Beret/Little Red Corvet. But we did get ALHIYH and Joy In Repetition which haven't featured much. Got 2 more gigs and aftershows lined up for 13th/21st Sept.

Hi! I've been 10th August, 31st August and 1st September so far and 1st September was definitely the best of those three. I've two more to go (16th and 21st September) so we'll see if either of those end up being better than the 1st. Will let you know!

28th was an awesome gig and set list.

Interestingly i sold to a friend my seats behind the stage and he got upgraded to C2 row D cause they needed his seats for extra cameras as they were filming that show. I was down in A1 row G and have to say the set list and princes overall performance was amongst the best you could imagine. If i was guessing i would say that was being prepared for DVD release although i love the idea that they release all 21 shows on a special super bumber DVD edition type of thing.

Two weeks prior on the tuesday in A2 was right up there as well.

Good to hear that G, as I missed the other highly raved about aftershows.

That performance blew my mind, one helluva show indeed.

That would be the most amazing thing!

Any idea if they filmed the aftershow aswell???

That's interesting 2 here onecrush.....so u was obviously also at the 18th aftershow which I was at. I thought this was beyond my expectations and was probably the best gig I've ever been to and I've been to some great gigs over the years (Bob Marley, The Police - at their peak, The specials, Muse) 2 name just a few, but the 18th aftershow (red feather hat and all) topped them all....that must mean that the 28th musta been off the rickter smile

I was there on the 18th and 28th aftershows and for me the 28th was the ultimate aftershow. That's not to say there was anything wrong with the 18th, it is easily the 2nd best Prince show I have attended. I've always wanted to see Prince play more rock stuff and that's what the 28th was all about.

As for main shows, it was either the 7th or 14th for me, with the 7th probably sneaking it.

Been to 3 concerts so far - opening night was easily the best with around 2.5 hours of music and the surprise encore at the end (I had a floor seat and managed to get to the 2nd row from the front when he came back on)
Been to 2 after shows but the man only turned up on the 28/08 - what a show, words can't express....

Only been to one show, sept 1st, but Im still in heaven, it was just so great! Coming home on sunday I was longing to go back again. But prob cant afford it with the ticket-, travel- and hotelcosts... And if I did,I want to be at his last show, difficult to get tickets at a decent price. I'll just have to cling to the memories of the last weekend, and pray he comes back to somewhere in Europe soon, altough something is telling me he wont eek(
Love you P, you are fabulous - dont ever stop making music !

Loved the main show on the 28th, but after the main on the 1st I said to my wife that was the best, though maybe I was just emotional wink

I also went to the 31st. 1000 hugs and kisses... biggrin

But THE AFTERSHOW ON THE 28th. OMG. drool3 clapping
