Greensboro Aftershows?

Anyone have any thoughts if Prince would perform at an aftershow in Greensboro and if so, how difficult it would be to get in? I was at the Dec 29 NYC show and went to the Village Underground because I heard a rumor P would be there because he was there a few weeks before. Later found out the aftershow was at a place called Butter, but you had to be on a special list to get in. Some fans waited outside in the frigid cold for hours only to be turned away.

Do you think it would be less exclusive in Greensboro? Any thoughts where an aftershow might be? I would love to see Prince in a more intimate setting.

I'm hoping there wil be a Greensboro aftershow as well. That would be the best way to see him perform I think. For some reason I doubt there will be an aftershow there since it is a much smaller city but then again you never know; but here's to hoping!

I missed the Greensboro show in 98, but made the "Afterparty." No performance though. Since he is almost 53, I think long aftershows are a thing of the past, but we can still dream. Most of the after parties from 1997 to 2000 meant too much Doug E Fresh, and somebody either Rhonda, or Marva King, or some other woman would sing I'll Take You There. Prince hardly sang a full length original song at an aftershow back then. I went to tons of them, luckily, somebody got me in free to at least 5 of them. There wasn't a single aftershow at any of the Musicology "Afterparties," that I went to, and that was 7 shows.

These were Musicology shows in NC or in other states? I don't remember there being 7 shows in NC but I could be wrong.

There was an afterparty in Birmingham after Musicology (SUPRISING!).
I also went 2 the 1st Ave. party in MLPS, but thank the LORD I knew a guy who hipped me 2 it b4 word got out. My theory is, u never know. We didn't have twitter back it those days, but I'm betting if something is poppin off, u'll hear it there 1st.

we tried hard to find out if there was an after show for Raleigh but didnt hear of one. i wonder if they stay in a hotel after the show and then drive the next morning to the next venue? hard to tell?? if there was an after party, who would you ask? the guy passing out the guitar (s) to Prince said he just worked for the road crew and didnt know much. he did give me a guitar pick though!!!!
