What group did u see??? Because this "1999" group was booked for Houston - House of Blues 9/11/10.

Erm, them... that's what the whole thread's about!

Hang on, did the Oregon mention throw you? My meaning was that it's a great beer from Oregon, not that I'm actually IN Oregon! The Flying Saucer (here in H-town) have it on tap. biggrin

Hee hee, I see. So how many songs did they do? Do you remember the rest of the setlist or most of them?

I see you mention " take me with u then raspberry beret now I wanna b your lover and Cream"

I arrived a bit late to Take Me With U. They also played I Wanna B Your Lover, Cream, Raspberry Beret, Kiss, Diamonds And Pearls, Computer Blue into Darling Nikki , Beautiful Ones, When Doves Cry, I Would Die 4 U, Baby I'm A Star and Purple Rain. I think I'm missing one - I counted 14 on the night.

I imagine Let's Go Crazy, LRC and 1999 were played before I got there as it would have been in keeping with the PR + other hits vibe.

Beautiful Ones,

Brave! How did the singer handle the screaming?

By not really screaming, just singing more forcefully. The safer route!

The Little Rock show opened w/ Let's go Crazy > Delirious > 1999 > LRC.

Sounds like the full show is the Purple Rain tour set with other hits put in place of the International Lover-How Come U Don't...-Let's Pretend etc etc piano medley.
