Dr. Funkenberry says Mint Condition will open Friday and there will be a SUPER SURPRISE GUEST opening on Saturday. He said it was a girl.

I'm going to both shows. Can't wait!

Lot's of talk about Gwen Stefani on Saturday. Though I think it's more of an appearance than her as an opening act.

and it is Mint Condition on Friday, from their twitter:

Who do you think it could be, or who do you want it to be? lol I'm curious because I'm looking at tickets for Sat now.

I was hoping for the Time but since the person is supposed to be female, I don't know. What is your guess?

Maybe its Janet Jackson!!! She's on tour now and would make sense

EDIT: never mind that - Janet is in Vegas Saturday night and I just read Dr F. post..

"she's just a girl" thats just obvious its Gwen!!!! AWESOME

not sure how much gwen stefani can add to a show...but i'm a prince n00b.

and i used to think she was hot.

i was hoping for guests more along the lines of stevie wonder...

a girl ? maybe Stevie nicks? Gwen stefani? , sheila e. or janet jackson???

wait maybe cindy lauper ???=)

Beyonce maybe???

Tonight is Sheila E for sure.

For the 4/14 show, I never saw any mention of an opener. Who was it? Or was it just Prince?

Just Prince.

That's what I was thinking too. I said the same thing in the thread I posted from DrF's site. Somehow that little hint "She's just a girl" reminded me of Beyonce's song "If I was a boy". Who knows, but some are speculating it may be Gwen Stefani.

Here's the others I thought it could be based on DrF's hint:

Madonna

Beverly Knight (I think that's her last name)

Cindy Lauper (She did do that song "Girl's just wanna have fun
