What was the stage-design like for the ONA-Concerts in the US? Anything interesting? What can we expect to see?

Well, I will tell you what you are NOT going to b seeing!!! LOL
Beds, baths, scantily clad dancers, sexual theatrics,and other stage sets that one would normally associate with Prince!!!

I think someone said it was a basic layout with 3 video screens showing various images during the show ?

Don't know about ONA (Yet!) but at Xenophobia you had Nato on the left, then Rhonda with her upright bass and her '75 Fender Jazz bass, then John Blackwell back/centre behind his see-thru sound barrier. Prince has a couple of keyboards setup centre stage plus there is a Rhodes Piano on the right of the stage. Prince had his guitars passed to him from down infront of the stage by Takumi (his guitar tech). No props, no fancy lights - just pure music (and Prince's funny stories!).

Should be pretty much the same!

there's a small white llama to stage left, a 1969 Ford Cortina (mk 1) at the back, a small barbie doll wearing a cinderella costume at the front by his mike and the 1974 Thunderbirds album tied to a chimpanzee over on the right near Rhonda.

Any more details, feel free to ask

and George Bush sitting on a chair on the left (waiting)
cigars wont be there neither socks or small ducks flying around, no shoes lying on the floor no trees a sample of cheese maybe

I thought that because it was called "one night alone" that he was going to be alone, with a guitar and piano? Why is it called the "One Night Alone" tour if he has a band? Does anyone know if there will be an after party?

At the NPS music festival concerts in 1998 the stage design was also very basic. The addition of the video screens with images is a cool thing. So it's a little more visual. I never read in reports that the video screens will B used to show the band and Prince on it in close ups etc. In some European arena's that would B really great because some are quit big (10.000-17.000 fans)

But hey, we'll hear about the show tonight when the first London reviews will come in!
