How long does the Soundcheck last?

I'm so psyched about tomorrow night's Toronto show! I went to the Buffalo show back in March but I can't remember how long the soundcheck lasted. Does anyone know (on average) what time P's soundcheck is usually over with? I'm trying to plan my night & wanted to see how much time I have between soundcheck & the start of the show. Thanks!

I have been to three soundchecks, and they all seem to run about an hour.

The Paisley Park staff meets you at the venue door around 5:30 to give you your pass. You are then ususally ushered into a waiting room until 6pm. At 6, you are let into the venue, and my advise is to look all around, because alot of times, Prince is sitting somewhere in the venue by himself, and not on stage. They end at 7pm so that the band can change.

Have a great time tomorrow night. I have enjoyed the soundchecks more so than the shows themselves.

PS - Don't be nervous if Prince asks you up on stage to sing the chours to a song -- THE MIKES ARE NOT ON!!! Thank goodness, or I would have been banned from Paisley Park for life!
