21 Nights in London: Positivity, y'all

I wanted to start a thread dedicated to the great things that have been happening during the 21 Nights in London. I know people have had problems and criticisms, and this is not an attempt to stop anyone airing them, but they risk overshadowing the many great experiences people are having. Feel free to post your positivity in this thread.

I'll start. It's fantastic to have Prince camped out in my city like it's his second home. I don't think I've ever been to more than one date of the same tour of any act before, but I'm going to five nights of this (so far), including the opening and closing nights. The rocky version of U Got the Look thrills me every time I hear it, and it's been a treat to hear Joy in Repetition, Take me with you, Girls & Boys, Sometimes it Snows in April and If I was your Girlfriend. When the place is rocking, there's a real party atmosphere, especially on tracks like Guitar and Kiss. The band is great. Really great. When they jam the horns around tracks like Musicology and 3121 (anyone else spot The Entertainer dropped in there?), it makes every performance unique and surprising. The stage is brilliant and provides a spectacle to everyone. I love the dancing by The Twins - great routines, especially on Guitar and U Got the Look. Friday night Prince looked like he was having a ball here and the show seemed really fluid and spontaneous. Last Friday was one of my favourite concerts ever, toppling Prince at Brixton Academy from the charts. Such a cool way to start a gig, with the band playing as they came into the arena, and a fantastic set list.

So thanks for coming to London, Prince, and for putting together such a great show. There's been something unique on each night I've been. Looking forward to more gigs, and more surprises unfolding.

Here here!!

Went on the 3rd and as soon as I left the o2 I knew that I had to come back before the end of the tour.

I thank Prince for making these shows affordable to everyone, lets remember alot of the other big name artists are charging a hell of alot more than what we are paying for your standard ticket which in turn means we can go to more than one show.

There is always going to be something that someone is unhappy about, I would of loved to of heard some more personal favourites while I was there but he cant keep 20,000 people completely happy every show. I had the time of my life and its good to see Prince still out there doing what he does best, he's not getting no younger and he could quite easily sit back and just live off the money he already has so lets all be grateful that hes out there doing what we all love!

I would just like to say a huge thankyou to prince for these 21 nights. I wish I could attend them all, managing 5 + 2 aftershows altogether inc final night.
The utter joy I've experienced since the news emerged saying Prince was coming to the uk has felt like I've been reborn lol
