Paisley Park After Dark November 7 2015 Cheesecake funk night 2. Currently in the car outside waiting to get in to the official lot. Been told to watch out about parking on the dead end on McGlynn Road which used to be the main place to park; apparently cops patrol it now? Anyway, performance seems likely tonight! | |

Played for maybe 45 to an hour, opened with solo keyboard and vocal doing Raspberry Beret and Starfish & Coffee among others. Band joined for some improvised jams, with P on guitar for only the final one. After a while Kirk invited us all out to the movie theater. Hah, so much for late night, the whole place was being shut down before 1! Still loved it! | |

Ex-Moderator | Girls and Boys into or $ was pretty damn incredible. My highlight of the night for sure. |

The L4OA room was set up with tables and pillows in front of the stage. They played the Andy Allo acoustic set. Prince came on stage by himself for a piano set. From what I remember: If I Could Get Your Attention Raspberry Beret Starfish and Coffee With You (piano only, no vocals) Sweet Thing Something In The Water Girl and Boys Love or $ (band joins) When Will We B Paid Stratus I don't normally brag about these shows, but Prince alone with his piano was epic. You could hear a pin drop.

He played Something in the Water on piano? Was it a full version? [Edited 11/8/15 9:19am] " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

Wow! Thanks for the reply. That´s one of my all time favorite songs, never get tired of it. Too bad he doesn´t release this live version.

Are you sure? I'm a stickler when it comes to setlist, it drives me crazy when I read reports that omit the setlist entirely or are vague, & When Will We B Paid was definitely the 1st song he did with the band & by the time he did Girls & Boys with Love Or Money the band was already there, I remember Adrian's lead line on sax during Girls & Boys. motherfunka said:

Did anyone notice the woman that came out of the stage door with Prince before he got on stage? She had long curly and blonde hair. She sat on a folding chair while he performed. Someone also brought her a fur blanket at some point (no idea how she could have been cold it was hot as heck in the L4OA room!)
She was gorgeous-not sure if she's a new protege or girlfriend but wondered who she was! | |

I'm like 95% sure he started Girls and Boys alone and the band either joined in on Girls and Boys or Love or $. Prince Vault also has the set list in that order.

Possibly one of the invited journalists that were there? I didn't see her. TRUE BLUE | |

Has this fool left Texas and moved to Paisley Park surroundings to be at Paisley so much? Surely he's not flying back and forth from TX to MN to catch all these Paisley Park shows? | |

He moved to Minnesota. TRUE BLUE | |

I figured he must have. He's obsessed with the Purple Music. I don't guess he's on P's payroll. To pay bills, I wonder does he work in a Purple Wreckastow? | |
