 No u r not mad, I'm going on Sept 1st armed with tissues this time  and every time I think about Sat Aug 18th I want 2 cry with sheer joy at what we witnessed that nite.
I think we should ask The Priory to book a big purple room for all of the orgers from 22nd September onwards, I think the downer that we are all going to feel after the last nite will be huge   I know what you mean - I'm seeing him for the first time on the 9th and I know that the excitement I'm feeling now is going to be the complete opposite once that night's over! I have never looked forward to a concert as I am this one, and the thought of it being over isn't even worth contemplating! "I'm so funky I can't even sleep with myself"...

I think I'm going to need one on Sept. 22nd. I managed to get through the whole first night without crying (while my sister and friend both blubbed next to me) so was feeling quite pleased with myself. Then blew it on 14th - cried like a baby during Purple Rain. Mind you - I have form - I burst into uncontrollable tears once at Earls Court when he came on stage - because I felt like I had been waiting for years to see him again and when he was finally in front of me - the release of stress was just incredible. That's my excuse anyway - a stress relief reaction! Mind you - when he played Purple Rain on the 14th - I think I was just crying because I knew this was just the most special moment in my life, and I couldn't believe I was there to witness this most amazing human being, at the height of their powers (has Prince ever been better???) - and I do think that these performances will be something I tell my kids and grandkids about - much like Elvis/ Beatles fans probably do... so go ahead - CRY!

I'm glad to hear from other people who have had the same uncontrolable reaction.
I think it's just an emotional release at seeing him in the flesh. It must build up between gigs. I still take a LOT of stick for it though. | |
