What are you listening to, reading, watching? How do you get ready for a Prince concert. If it is your first how are you handling the excitment?

like this.

This is about the 6th time I have seen him and prob the most excited I have been, doesn't get any better than to see him in his hometown and hang out at 1st ave with alot of the people I have met on here! You ready to party wonder? lol 4th row, he might pull you on stage! ....actually have dirty mind cranked up while I'm writing this!

oh you know it's been on my mind!!!

i've also seen him before before but this just feels surreal. i am ready to partay! First Avenue is gonna be off da hook.

I have seen him 8 times:
Lovesexy Tour - Charlotte 1988
Nude Tour - London 1990
Symbol Tour - Atlanta 2 nights in a row! 1993
Jam of the Year - Atlanta 1997
Jam of the Year After show - Atlanta 1997
? Tour - Charlotte 2000
Musicology Tour - Columbia SC 2004



I am more excited about this show than any of the others. My mother took me to London to see him when I was 19. I am taking my 14 year old son to Minneapolis for a great father son trip. He loves Prince's music. (he is a musician) This will be a weekend that we will remember for the rest of our lives! I really hope that the Time opens for him and that he plays an aftershow that under 21 can attend!

I haven't been doing anything.


Oh, I'm visiting my stylist Thursday night for a fresh color and cut. That's about it.

i don't have to prep. these days i just go on auto fam-out mode when the need arises.

I'm trying sooo hard not to fam out just yet. This will be my 7th show but the first in MPLS.

I'm conserving my energy.

wow, this is my first MPLS prince show too. and if it happens, my first paisley party. not my first princey party at first avenue, but certainly the first one that will be packed to the gills with the fammage. just thinking about it is prep enough!

Same here...minus the 1st ave thing cuz that will be new for me....IM soooo excited

Making sure I'm alive when July 6th ends.

Well- I as of yesterday, me and Angela(who is coming with me) watched the behind the scenes Purple Rain extras from the DVD, then we watched Rave unto the Joy Fantastic and Graffiti Bridge. We have also listened to nothing but his purpleness since our awesome experience in SF from May. So now we are just biting our nails, waiting for Friday to come so that we can fly on out there and experience it all over again. SO excited to be going to Minneapolis. Cant wait for all the orgers to meet up (wherever the afterparty ends up being) and meeting some new friends. Oh- and Im getting a purple pedicure on Thrusday to match my mood! Other than that- business as usuall-popping in cd after cd of Prince(my poor 6 year old boy calls my car the Princemobile! ) Probably by doing that the rest of the week-along with at least one more viewing of my favortie movie since I was 9- Purple Rain.

I'm preparing by going to see Morris Day and The Time tonight at Taste of Minnesota.

I wish I was going!!!!! I can't complain though. You guys are going to have a blast, and I really hope he does an after show at Paisley for all of you!!!

Damn. The Time is hitting at the wrong time.

I don't get to MPLS 'till Friday.

Morris? 1st Ave? You hearing me? I know you know where Paisley Park is too...
