All I'm going off of is him leaning against the drums and catching his breath before he started singing on Purple Rain, my mom's reports of him limping (I told her that was just how he usually walked but she thought it was "different", and the way that after he danced he would usually take a really really long break afterwards.

I'm sure he's trying to prove that there is nothing wrong with his hip but there's a lot of evidence that says there very well could be. At least he didn't have a cane in this performance.

This is not me trying to start shit or spread gossip, it is coming from a place of caring and admiration for Prince. The fact that laurarichardson attacked me for it is offensive.

...i was a ball of nerves and i needed 2 un-wind myself...but when i saw prince strut about like the TRUE-pea-cock he is...especially the walking-on-ur-tip-toes...i wanted him 2 walk on my back!!...i KNOW that would F-E-E-L ohhhh sooo GOOD!!!!

My husband and I were watching him backstage as the music to Purple Rain started. He was not happy about something, pounded his fists on the stage by the stairs and then he obviously got up on stage from the back by the drums ... I could not see how he got on stage from where I was standing, but like I said, it was very obvious to us that he was definitely in pain. And the only reason I have piped up here is because, like you, of my admiration and care for Prince.

He said something like "I wouldn't be the man [maybe he said 'artist'] I am today without Larry Graham," and THEN Prince went through and name-checked the following list:

Larry Graham
James Brown
Stevie Wonder
George Clinton and P-Funk
Sly Stone
The Jacksons
Tower of Power
Miles Davis
Carlos Santana
Joni Mitchell
Chaka Khan
Rufus

Amen.

So, the few brief videos on YouTube have been removed "due to a claim by NPG Records."

Yay. Haha.

That's why there's software to copy that shit as soon as you see it.

squirrelgrease said:

Yup.

At 11:10, the band took the stage, followed shortly thereafter by Our Man. He had on (from what I could tell under the colored lights) a black satin tunic with self-fabric fringe, his black stretchy pants, and a pair of furry, knee-high boots with lights in the wedge heels. This was the only outfit he wore all night - the first time I've ever been to a Prince concert that didn't have a wardrobe change.

Genesia said:

I thought the outfit was plum colored.

He walked past her at first and said something like "He" was having a good time then took a double take and corrected it to "She" Then looked yet again and called her "shim" I was in the front row on Prince's left side and yelled out "daammm" and started cracking up, Prince looked directly at me and had the biggest grin/smirk on his face I have ever seen...
I am still laughing about it today...

The person you are referring to is a friend he personally escorted to sit in his guest section so she would not have to stand up and people were pushing towards the front of the stage and he was concerned for a friend. I think he was a dear friend and gentleman to literally stop playing to personally escort her out of there and have her sit in his guest area.
If you had looked back later you would have seen the person sitting in the area with Larry and Tina and his other guests

I was right next to this woman he yanked and saw what happened. She was extremely bossy throughout the evening when standing in line. When she got inside the venue she was very annoying throughout the first song, she was right under Prince's nose singing loudly (over him) and banging that tamborine so hard. I think he was distracted by her "Audition for Shelby's job" and did not want the microphones in the front picking up her voice and tamborine instead of his. He banished her to the back. At first she did not want to leave and he yanked her by her hand. Anyway I was glad to see her leave she was a pain in the ass, kept pushing me and was very rude.
