PRINCE IN CLEVELAND OHIO REVIEW

ALL I CAN SAY IS .....THE MAN WAS AWESOME!!
I got to the Palace Theatre in Cleveland Ohio at 8:00 pm....well that is when the show should've started but being a long-time Prince fan i knew that he would make us wait.....and wait we did. We waited for about 30 minutes.....we were all in our seats anticipating the moment when the curtains would open and would see our man!

Meanwhile as i waited,I was on my cellphone talking to my best friend to kill time!
8:30 finally arrived.....purple lights flashed from the stage and the curtains opened up! There was Prince....he was dressed in a black long sleeved shirt,black pants,black boots and a grey blazer...he wore that all evening. His hair looked like the way it did on the cover of new power soul.
I had awesome seats.....not front row but about 75 ft away from him...
He started off singing Rainbow Children then Muse 2 the Pharoah, Mellow, 1+1+1=3....Rhonda looked professional in her all black get up....black long flowing feminine blazer,black pants and black boots strummin' her bass!
Maceo Parker was there but I forgot to tell ya' before the curtains opened up he was playing from the back of the theatre and walked to the front and on stage!! We all thought that maybe Prince was back there but he was on stage.
He played Strange Relationship.....I jammed on that one! He played Roller Coaster....Prince said....if you can jam on that song U must be about 50! We cracked up! He played How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore...I Love U But I Don't Trust U Anymore...He played The Beautiful Ones...and PURPLE RAIN!!!

In the End.....He said.....I feel I can talk to you....I mean he was opening up to the audience....he said I feel I can open up to u and tell u whats going on deep inside....
Have u ever lost someone? Have U ever Lost Someone that was dear to you? And at that point we all knew who he was implying to.....It was soooo touching.....
He said do you ever feel that u didn't say enough to them when they were here.....
He said he loved Cleveland and loved playing for us and that he had a really good time!
We all cheered and screamed! It was a blast!
THere was no after party from what i understand.....
The man put on a great show.....He even played ADore.....

I hope u all enjoy him when he comes to your town!
I really really did! THank U Prince for a wonderful time!
