A special mention is needed to those aftershow attendees to the left of the stage including the prince look-a-like and the captain funk dude for their energetic dancing which kept us all entertained before the arrival of the main man. Oh, and DoMeBaby69 was there as well!!

Hello again. I sure was! Lovely to meet you and looking forward to meeting you again on the 21st. Gave you a mention too in my thread when I got in from the aftershow this morning!

That lookalike guy was wicked. We were behind him in the line to pick-up our tickets and the woman who served him couldn't stop laughing (in a good way). He even spoke like Prince

Ellie said:

I was speaking to him too. He's from Chicago (hence the similar speaking voice) and came to London to see the show. He was a really nice guy.

Cheers my dears, I'll go and read it. It was nice to meet you too, and I'll be loitering to the left on the 21st, so come catch up with me!

He must have been made up when prince acknowledged him by coming over to the side of the stage and ran his hand along the brim of his own hat (clearly to show his approval of look-a-likes attire).

BlackCandle said:

don't suppose any photos flying around of this guy? Would love to see a Prince look-a-likee = don't think I've ever seen one before! Wouldn't imagine he gets to open many village fetes???

Easter said:

Nor any record stores I imagine...

Also, much props to the yound lad front and centre that shelby molested during Suga Mamma : I saw him at the bus stop afterwards and shook his hand...

can anyone translate for me please?

Only ribbon cutting at hospitals and supermarkets

Holy crap!!! I know that "Prince-look-alike- dude"! I used to live in Chicago, and he would turn up at ALL of Sam Jennings' Prince parties. I seem to remember Morris and Jerome seeing him from the stage at the Cabaret Metro and pretending to get nervous 'cause Prince was in the house. Funny shit!

Have you heard Jamie Fox's impression of Prince. lolll..
he sounds so much like him..!!!

and wow dude traveled all the way to London.. good on him.

Easter said:

Here's a pic of me and said lookalike - known as Mr Markus (coincidentally, my name is Mark too). We chatted for quite a while after the mainshow and, as others have said, he was a really cool guy!

Mindflux said:

That's freaking awesome.....do you think he had his legs lowered to look the part to???

BlackCandle said:

Hi! I was there with Blackbird1973 and he held her hand and then he touched my hand!!!! - what a nite, still have not come down, very very special.

onlymatt said:

Yeah, but he WAS carrying an O2 plastic carrier bag which Prince would NEVER do!

Hi Tiger7!! I've still not come down either. I'm still feeling in a surreal state. We will never forget that very special night
