I tell ya, I’m almost afraid to ask what Prince has in store for us next. Thank you Mr. Nelson for yet another incredible experience. Just when I thought nothing could top being in the half time show, you raised the bar yet again.

Don’t forget to bring Maceo, I miss him. I gotta give some shout outs to the peeps I met during this awesome weekend…

Hi, I wondered what happened to you? I didn't know about your back.

I enjoyed our chat before the show and I'm truly sorry it wasn't better for you,
I do agree that the logistics at Target and First Avenue left a lot to be desired, but my post would have been way too long if I did more than touch on it briefly.

I thought that Macy's was the most organized. They gave very clear instructions. We came at 8, got our instructions and the red band and left. When we returned, we went straight to the air conditoned 8th floor. Waiting for P to complete soundcheck was the main bug and threw the timing off for the rest of the shows. How comes the people who already had the first wrist band were waiting hours on line outside?

Believe it or not, the Target show was better soundwise than the Hard Rock show in Fla. and I had floor seats there.

I wouldn't have been able to wait in that line for the aftershow tix. I only got in because I was at First Avenue early the night before, asked questions and did exactly as I was told. No connections...just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

The worst thing that happened to me was falling down in the middle of First Ave and I wasn't drinking anything but Vitamin Water. :

As I mentioned to you, I don't plan to continue doing this if things get much more complicated because I do think that the entertainment factor shouldn't be outweighed by a tedious ticketing process. Luckily, that wasn't the case this time.

One thing I can say is that I have an intense love of music, (got BB King tix for 7/24) and when great music starts playing I'm instantly transported out of myself to another place. Other cares and concerns usually kind of fade into the background for me during that time.

Another thing is I've always been a lemons to lemonade type of person...it's just my nature.

Hopefully it will be better for you next time, I look forward to seeing you again.
