Did he sing about Rotterdam in Gelredome

I can't remember in which song, but I think it was in COOL (or maybe Let's Work).

My wife and I heard Prince singing something like:

"Back in the old days in Rotterdam, they know how to roll"

These are definitely not the correct words he used, but we both looked at eachother at the same time: Hey, did he mention Rotterdam?????????

Anybody heard it ? and if so, in what song was it and what did you hear him sing (exactly)

I'm pretty sure I heard him say "one more keer" (keer means time (in this context)) also, or was that one too many Barcardi-Cola's??

Hi Sander,

Prince did sing about Rotterdam during the Geldredome show.

It was in the song "Cool".

- (C-O-O-L) What's that spell?
(C-O-O-L)

I might dine in Rotterdam
Dance all night in Rome
I go any freakin' place I want 2
And my lear jet brings me home (Listen darlin')
I got ladies by the dozens
I got money by the ton
Just ain't nobody better
Heaven knows that I'm the one

cool Prince heeft er zo vaak opgetreden, dat het waarschijnlijk de eerste Hollandse stad was die in zijn hoofd kwam boven drijven.

Het wordt tijd dat hij weer eens terug komt naar Rotjeknor, dan hoef ik niet zover te rijden biggrin

Mick.

It ain't oveR

yes - we heard him say Rotterdam as well.

And it's probably in his COOL lyrics, the same where he mentioned Milano in the ROME concert what Romans made wonder and netx he referred to Rome.

Later.

What do you mean it's not in the computer?

All of the above cared, except you.

I live in Rotterdam and visited lot of concerts and 2 aftershows in my hometown, so I was curious if I heard it right and what he sang. Love the reactions I got and how fans shared answers and experiences.

Why did you bother to let us know you don't care, just move on to the next topic if you don't.

Hmm. The Gelredome isn't fabulous but good enough for the occasion: we at least avoided the dreadfull parking fees that are mandatory at the Ahoy.

I'd say the 12 euro at the Gelredome is dreadfull enough.

I'd rather pay the 11 euro at the ahoy (or less if you park in the surrondings) for a far better venue and less congestion.
