I think he probably drove by Velvet Room and then headed for eleven50. He was there from about 1:00 until after 4:00 in the morning, so any hopping that he did happened pre-eleven50.

Went and saw Prince at the Philips arena in Atlanta for the second night in a row on August 10, 2004. Left the hotel about a half an hour earlier than the day before. Got the tickets and ate again before entering the arena. Went and found our seats. This time we were in section 3 in the second row behind the drum kit. We grabbed a drink and wandered around and talked to other fans. Jason had a P-Funk shirt on and I had my Time shirt and pimp hat on so all kinds of folks were talking to us. Very Cool.

Almost right at 7:30 p.m. the light went off and we started to our seats. We had heard rumors that Sheila E might open this show and we knew Prince wasn't coming on that early. The familiar ticking started and we were as hyped as a Mug. The Time two nights in a row!! The fellas came down the aisle to the right of us and hit the stage shortly thereafter.

Here is the setlist.
1. Ho Parade
2. Wild and loose
3. The Stick
4. Fishnet
5. The Oak Tree
6. Jerk Out
7. Get it up
8. Cool
9. 777-9311
10. Gigolos get lonely too
11. The Bird
encore
12. Jungle Love.

The exact same setlist as the day before, but for some reason I enjoyed this show better. As always the fellas were tight as hell. Tori and Jerome saw us so that was cool. The crowd seemed to be into this one more. After the Bird, Jerome had all the women who danced on stage in a circle calling Morris back to the stage. Jellybean was laughing his ass off at this. Freeze played that kick ass bass line before Jungle Love again.

About half an hour after the Times set, The lights went off and the RRHOF speech started. We saw the band members come down the aisle, but no Prince. It seems they had him in a big box and pushed it under the stage. Hilarious.

Here is the setlist
1. Musicology
2. Let's go Crazy
3. I would die 4 U
4. When Doves Cry(with Kiss guitar part)
5. Baby I'm a Star(with 1999 beginning)- they jammed on this one for a long time
6. Shh-always a highlight and Prince did an incredible solo at the sent of the song
7 D.M.S.R(pass the peas)- now that's a Funk Jam
8. I feel 4 u- With Glamorous Life intro
9.Controversy- Now this has been a jam at all the show, did part of a Love Bizarre and the housquake chant. He also mentioned Rick James and played some of Give it to me baby before going back into Controversy
10 God(instrumental)- same as the last few time, Renato on keys with the samples from the movie
11. Georgia on my Mind- maceo on vocals
12. Sometimes it snows in April

Prince comes back on stage for the acoustic part of the show
13 Little red Corvette
14. Cream
15. I wanna be your lover- sweet
16.Prince and the Band- I like this song, he also gave props to Morris and the Time
17. Alphabet st
18. When will we b paid- nice to hear this live
19. 17 Days- now this got me hyped
20 Something in the water(does not compute)- and I lost it when he did this one
21. On the couch
22 Raspberry Beret
23. 7- The band comes back in
24 Sign o' the Times
25. Pop Life
26. Whole lotta Love- WTF Now Jason and I came unglued. We were headbanging and it kicked ass. Prince doing Zep and ripping it up on Guitar. I use to have this neighbor that lived behind me and he would walk through my yard all the time and if I happened to be in my yard when he was cutting threw it he would come up to me with his guitar and say" hey man listen to this" he would then play the beginning of whole lotta love and say" That's all I know" and walk off. Jason had said something to the effect that Prince should do the same and he had no idea that Prince has been playing this live so that was funny. John had an awesome drum solo and I thought he was going to play Moby dick or something. Another highlight for sure.
27 Let's work- Prince played bass on this
28. u got the look- tons of people got on stage. prince gave his guitar to a young lady and she stayed up there for 5 songs with it. Very cool and she was getting the crowd into it
29. Life of the party
30 Soul Man- Chance on vocals
31. Kiss
32 Take me with U- a little girl got on stage and she knew the lyrics, the solos fallowed and the main part of the show ended with the 777 drum beat and we don't like new wave sample
encore
33. The Beautiful Ones- now this is my favorite prince song so this was very Cool
34. Nothing Compares 2 U
35 Purple Rain

The Band members left down the center aisle again and I guess prince rolled back out in the box again since it went by us again and we never saw him.The first show was fantastic, but this one was out of the park. The acoustic show which was the only part of the first show that I didn't really dig was top notch tonight. Lots of guitar playing. It seems like every I go and see prince the show gets better and as long as he keeps putting on shows like this I'll keep going

"Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Aah aah aah aah aah aah aah aah aah"


Also, Prince and The NPG was jammin' during Mike Scott and his "Dip" headbang
