One Nite Alone In Atlanta Here is a review of the “First Night Alone in Atlanta…”
The Atlanta Symphony Hall only held 1800 people. I arrived at the venue at 10:30, and not much was going on. Prince’s tour bus was parked out back, along with one 18-wheeler from which the crew was unloading the equipment. The only surprise there was three gear cases labeled “Larry Graham” were removed, which immediately made me think that “The Everlasting Now” was going to be in the set list. (For the record, Larry did not show up). I arrived extra early because this was the first show with the “new” way of purchasing tickets for NPGMC members. I was expecting chaos, but surprisingly things went very well. By 3pm, there was well over 100 NPGMC members waiting in line, and one of the Atlanta members, Stephanie, thought it was a good idea to make a list of who was there first, so that when we got in line, there was no cutting of the line. This seemed to work out very well. I suggest other cities do this! At 5:30pm, they began to let the NPGMC members in for the soundcheck. In the background, you could hear the band playing an instrumental version of “A Case of U.” The process seemed to go very smoothly. You did not receive a ticket stub, but a purple arm band instead. If you purchased two tickets, you only received one VIP pass (even if both tickets were for music club members). We were not searched at all, and I proceeded into the soundcheck. As I walked into the very small arena, Prince was sitting in the 15th row singing “Extraordinary.” Most people did not even recognize him out there by himself. For the ladies, Prince was wearing black pants, a white turtleneck with black stripes, and get this, black sandals! He looked very good, with very little makeup on. Also, this soundcheck stayed a true “soundcheck” throughout. There were no discussions about current events, Prince worked very hard at teaching the band a new song. They played “Extraordinary” twice, saying that it will replace “A Case of U” on Thursday night. Najee played a very long solo on this song. They then played the intro to “Mellow Mellow.” The next 25 minutes was very interesting, with Prince teaching the band a new unnamed song with Rhonda on vocals. It seemed as if Najee had not yet heard this tune, and they were working on his part. It was a very soft ballad. This song is to replace “Didn’t U Know” on Thursday. Prince eventually took the stage and did an instrumental of “She Loves Me 4 Me.” He asked us if we watched the Oscars, and then began to make fun of some of the winners, getting all teary-eyed, saying, “I would like to thank everyone…” He was in a very playful mood all night. He commented several times that it was very cold on stage, continuously trying to warm his hands. They then went into “The Everlasting Now,” and worked on the last part of the song several times. Prince then took off his wedding band, and went into a full version of “Joy In Repetition.” I could have gone home at this point! They then did a funky blues version of “Paisley Park,” with several audience members (including me) on stage to sing the chorus – which EVERYONE FORGOT. Prince even changed the lyrics to reflect how “He hoped the chorus knew their part.” One of the guys on stage had just come from working at the hospital, and was still in a suit. Prince commented how nice it was to have a business man on stage, and was impressed to find out that he actually had a doctor on stage with him. Parts of “Family Name” and “The Rainbow Children” were toyed with as well. As the soundcheck ended, Prince obviously was concerned about the sound, and went out and tried to listen to the sound coming out of the front speakers. He asked us what we thought, and I jokingly said that his guitar was too low, so he cranked it up really loud, played a quick solo, and then gives me his guitar pick saying, “Give this to your grandkids.” The soundcheck ended a little after 7pm. Here is the only complaint of the night. When the soundcheck ended, the venue staff told us we all had to go back outside to be searched. We asked how were we to keep our seats, and we basically had to rely on the “Honor System.” We were ushered outside the venue, just to be let back in like a heard of cattle 3 minutes later – and never searched! 95% of us got back to our seats from the soundcheck, but a few people who missed the soundcheck tried to take close seats upfront that were already occupied. After about 20 minutes of bickering, and having the Atlanta Police negotiate with them, they ended up moving back a few rows to empty seats that were not taken during the soundcheck. There was absolutely no reason to make us go outside, to come right back in. Samnation was walking around, and he said tomorrow night we will go in one time, and stay there all night. The actual show started shortly after 8, with the house lights still on. Najee came out into the audience, playing the Rainbow Children, and then worked his way onto the stage. The lights went out, the curtains came up, and the magic began. Prince came out wearing black pants, silver heals, a long squared-off white dress shirt, with a gray vest that was very high up on the neck (very Asian-like). The set-list went like this: The Rainbow Children Muse 2 the Pharaoh Xenophobia A Case of U Mellow Mellow 1+1+1=3 Love Rollercoaster Other Side of the Pillow Radio Speech Strange Relationship Sing a Simple Song LaLaLa Means I love U Didn’t U Know When U Were Mine Avalanche Family Name Take Me With U Raspberry Beret Santana Medley Piano Medley: Adore I Wanna Be Your Lover Do Me Baby Diamonds and Pearls The Beautiful Ones Purple Rain (Instrumental Only) Free Starfish and Coffee Sometimes it Snows in April I love U, But I don’t trust U anymore Nothing Compares 2 U How Come U Don’t Call Me, Anymore? Anna Stesia Points to Highlight: -Prince did change his costume before Adore. He came out in a black shinny spandex suit with red piping, with one sleeve half black, half red. He also had one black shoe on, and one red one. He was also sporting a red hat that he eventually threw into the crowd. -Before Xenophobia, Prince said, “If you came to get your Purple Rain groove on, you came to the wrong place. Last I checked, it aint 1984 anymore.” -At one point, Prince made a joke about Greg Boyer’s trombone playing, saying that it made him want to dance like his uncle. Prince then broke out with this very painful looking dance like he had just fallen down 7 flights of stairs. Very silly. -During Xenophobia, Prince motioned that Renalto’s keys were so hot that he was going to pass out. He turned his back to the crowd, and then fell right into the crowd, with the front row lifting him back up onto the stage. When he got his composure back, he fell right back into the crowd. -Prince pulled my friend Stephanie up to sit on the pillows during Mellow and 1+1+1=3. All I can say is that she loved every minute. Enough Said. -During Mellow, when he sings, “you can watch a tape of this mellow afterparty, Macy and Common were there,” he changed the lyrics to say “Usher and Chilli were there.” I shall assume that they were both in attendance. -I did see DVS before the show in the lobby, as well as Baby Norman (the host of NPG Ahdio Show 6, she also danced on stage at the aftershow at eleven50 in Nov 2000). -During Mellow, he went to drop the mike, and then kick it back up like James Brown, but it fell straight to the floor. He improvised quickly, by very seductively approaching the microphone as if it was a woman in his bed. Every girl in the front row was hoping he would drop the mike again and again…. -The band started 1+1+1=3, and Prince immediately called out, “on the 1,” and the band stopped. He then pulled a woman on stage whose outfit was adorned with concert tickets and other photos of Prince. She had printed out images on that paper that can then be ironed on to clothes. Prince commented, “You worked hard on that outfit, so I’m gonna show it off.” He had her dance in a spotlight, and then he asked me to come on up and dance with her. We danced for awhile, and then Prince pulled up another girl and guy to continue. Our new male dancer was a bit, how shall I say….DRUNK! He did several splits and then did some pushups, or some type of floor grinding! Prince shockingly asked him to repeat his moves, and the guy just breaks out three splits. Prince asked how many Heinekens he had that night, and proceeded to warn the crowd, “This is your brain on BEER!” Prince also jokingly said he was “sleazy,” and that no matter where he goes, there is always “one of them.” -Prince did play a video prior to “Strange Relationship” that listed radio stations in various cities that were now owned by corporations. He went on to comment how we don’t own, nor do we program the radio stations. He said these companies only play the songs that make them the most money, and that’s why every radio station sounds the same. He then introduced us to WNPG radio….very funky! -During “Family Name,” Prince asked several people what their last name was, and renamed them. He asked me mine, and said, “That’s a nice Irish name, but now you are Blackburn.” He asked if I liked “Blackburn,” and I replied no, and he said, “well what do you want, Rosenbloom?” I said, “What about Nelson?” He smiled and walked away. -Before the Santana Medley, Prince said how Santana joined him the other night on stage in DC. Prince said he couldn’t play the Medley that night, because Santana would have torn the roof off, and Prince was trying to keep his job. -During HCUDCMA, Prince really joked around with the lyrics. When he sang, “U could smash up my ride,” he then went on about how she could smash it up, and he would just buy her another. She wants a Lexus, and Prince said, “That’s kinda steep,” but then very relaxed he said he would buy the Lexus. He also said he wanted to be “your Brother, Your Mother, and your Father’s Old Girlfriend.” -At the end of the show, Prince talked about why the NPG Music Club was in all the good seats. He said, “They believe enough in me to deliver the music they want, and I see to it that they get the best seats.” I have to admit, the new way of buying tickets did work, when he asked for the Music Club to make wave, we were ALL in the first 5 rows. This was the second show of the ONA tour that I have seen (you may have read my in-depth Louisville report). I have to say, this show was much better, because Prince was really in a great mood. I did like the additions of “I wanna be your lover,” “Do Me, Baby,” and “Diamonds and Pearls.” I did miss hearing “One Nite Alone.” It was also cool that during the piano medley at this show, they moved Prince’s keyboard to the middle of the stage. There was no aftershow or afteparty, but a rumor was floating around that tomorrow night will have an aftershow at eleven50 (where he played in 2000). It’s now 2:30 in the morning. I am off to sleep to do it all again tomorrow. Ohh, and by the way, Prince kept his guitar a little louder than normal tonight!!!!! Thanks again NPG!!!!! | |

AtlantaHatGuy said: Prince worked very hard at teaching the band a new song. They played “Extraordinary” twice, saying that it will replace “A Case of U” on Thursday night. Najee played a very long solo on this song.
For the record, Najee stated on Sunday that he didn't know the "four new songs." Prince was about to teach these to him and play them that night, but that's when Divinity kicked in with all her drama. Thanks Div... Hmmm... maybe I should cease this truce with Div... she made DC miss Extraordinary! Zero Stars!!! AtlantaHatGuy said: Prince then took off his wedding band, and went into a full version of “Joy In Repetition.”
Apparently Mani is personally offended by this song, so Prince will be taking his wedding band off whenever he plays it. Go figure those Canadian chicks? AtlantaHatGuy said: He asked us what we thought, and I jokingly said that his guitar was too low, so he cranked it up really loud, played a quick solo, and then gives me his guitar pick saying, “Give this to your grandkids.”
To which you responded... "What is this? What do you mean Sunny said you could give it to me? Why are you wearing that stupid catsuit Prince?" AtlantaHatGuy said: Before the Santana Medley, Prince said how Santana joined him the other night on stage in DC. Prince said he couldn’t play the Medley that night, because Santana would have torn the roof off, and Prince was trying to keep his job.
He made a similar comment on Sunday at the soundcheck... but then he wound up playing it anyways. Is he kookoo for cocoa puffs again like a certain prince.orger? No Candy 4 Me | |

And how exactly would u know that Manni is offended by this song?? Prince removes his ring whenver he is gonna get wild on the guitar, I have seen him do it loads of times, bith with Manni's ring and Mayte's.

Uhmm...why would Mani be personally offended by that song? I was just kidding about that. The report made is sound like Prince taking off the band was related in some way to him playing that song. I guess sitting in the same row as Divinity on Sunday made a bit of her veracity rub off on me. Oh wait, I called a truce... No Candy 4 Me | |

I couldn't hear that last part (I was in the 2nd row right behind you), but after Prince asked if Blackburn would be OK, you shook your head "No." and Prince looked a little shocked for a moment like no one ever tells him no in that situation. It was funny to see the surprised look on his face. But then he recovered quickly, and said "Too late". After that he changed it to Rosenbloom. Then he said "Rosenboom" during the vocals for Family Name. Anyway, great review and it's good that no security people "removed" your pen during the show. | |

Hello everyone. I'm 18 years old and Wednesday was my first-ever Prince show!! I was simply in awe. I have been a lover of his music for about 2 years now and to see him live was one of the best experiences in my life. The young lady I took never really listened to Prince, then she tried to take my CDs after the concert!
I just want to know from the "old heads" how this show measures up to his previous ones. | |

Great detail. I was at the DC show and I can only remember bits and pieces. I'm from ATL and saw him there last year for Hit and Run, it was great. The ATL crowd definitely kept him going, and I'm sure it was the same this year!
I'm very jealous! ".....I'll be standin' naked with nothin' but a smile on!" | |

The Revolution had NOTHING on any of these folks. John Blackwell is SICK!He didn't move around a lot (dance) like I ususally c him do, but dude is 43. Hell, I'm 35 & I can't move either like I did then either. | |

Mani who...
The wedding band prince wears is the same one he wore when he was married to matye. I got that info from someone who knows him very well but he would tell me anymore...still working on him. I also meant one of his women a couple of months ago and asked her why he never put a ring on hear finger. she smiled and said she doesn't need a ring and that she has known prince for years and that he is married to his music but he hate being alone and plus he has a image to up keep and that they have a understanding.what ever that means.. I don't know what God he is praying to.... | |
