Woohoo!!!

According to the Vancouver reports, Eric performed with the NPG!!! First we have Alan showering praises on the Chicago show, and now Eric playing. Good to see that old disputes are being resolved. This is a very good sign!

Can you imagine if we get Eric AND Sheila at the Celebration? I smell a Lovesexy revival

OHMYGOD! This is great news!

I have to back & look thru on of my first comments bout the ONA shows!

After reading Alan Leed's review of this tour on OK playa

I was hoping that they would get back together...

I hope this is more then just one night alone on tour with Prince.

I want him at the celebration...

Eric & Alan in, Larry out...gonna look for my comment & post it on here.

I am so stoked.

Alan Leeds is a person that will tell you that you kicked ass tonight or if you sucked booty. No one likes to hear bad stuff about them but Alan was critical of Prince cuz he cared. I wish Prince n Alan would find themselves again cuz when you surround yourself with yes men, you will end up like two former Kings shoes (one real King & one self-proclaimed King).

I have been waiting for Prince to do something like this for quite some time. At first, you might have those people requesting "Purple Rain" but in the end, if you stand strong with this, in the next few years, you might have people complaing; "Man, I miss the old days! I mean he doesn;t play 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 no more!"

This tour can only get better & no doubt he will own the U.S. after this mini-tour cuz everyone in L.A. is talkin bout this tour & cannot wait to see him. In the end, when Europe gets this tour, & the reviews are glowing cuz the musicianship is back, altho it never left, it was just in his funk-trunk, we will truly know if this is great after Europe gets a taste.

This Alan Leeds review was one of the best cuz how in depth he is & I think we all respect Alan cuz of the era's him & his brother were around Paisley Park.

Much Love 2 All.

This thread should be titled 'Eric Leeds is ginger'.

Bless him though. Bless Eric.

Good to see him around. Sounds like Prince is mending some bridges these days.

OMG!!! I SURE hope Eric performs at the Celebration!!! That would be SO funky!!! And you're right, him and Sheila would just be too much...damn!

One down ... two 2 go?

I said this on another Vancouver thread...but i too am excited to hear ERIC LEEDS-if even for one show--BACK with Prince!!!

He has always been my fav sax player for Prince's music.

Hoping he makes it for the Celebration!!!

PLEASE LET HIM BE AT THE CELEBRATION HOORAY!

Not to bring up "old stuff", but does anyone know why Prince and Eric "fell out"?

eric was magical @ the winnipeg show!
