Questions for Londoners

Ok, I've gotten to hear but not see most of the london shows. Can someone asnwer some questions for me.
1) there's an aftershow where Prince plays Superstition and Higher Ground by Stevie Wonder. Was Prince playing an instrument like the goldaxe or something, in addition to singing?
2) What was prince doing during the main shows when he would do the quick clips of all those different songs like a DJ or something at the end of the show. What kind of machine was he playing or using. Can you describe what he was doing?
3) At the aftershows when the ladies like Maya or the British singer would open the sets, was Prince playing with her band, which instrument?
4)Did prince dance? Did he ever really get down and dance, or just give you a taste?

1) That would be the 7th August aftershow. He was playing a regular keyboard not the Goldaxe
2) He was triggering samples on a synth.
3) He didn't guest on stage with Beverly Knight at the aftershow on the 14th August. I can't speak for the other shows with Mya or whatever. He did guest with Grupo Fantasma on the 7th before playing his own set.
4) He danced. Oh my yes he danced. boogie The Stomp on the 14th at the Indigo was great!

Sure he danced. But he didn't really dance. Splits...no chance. James Brown microphone dance? Nah. Real shame as my wife had never seen him and I really wanted her to see him REALLY dance. However, he still danced better than all of us put together!!

No it wasn't, it was the 'NIGHT OF THE HAT'- the 18th August. I remember it well because it was my first EVER aftershow & is lodged in my brain forever. Superb!
Oh yeh, he was playing keyboards while singing the Stevie songs.

Marva sang the Stevie songs on the 7th so that was my mistake!
