My body is dead, I m still in some weird bubble stuck on the ceiling and I refuse to come down! I m at work but with the concentration of a blue bottle! The only words coming out of my mouth are Prince although still cant get my words out correctly cos I m too excited from it all!
Listened to gold on replay this morning on the bus, huge smirk on my face like a cheshire cat, hairs stood on edge fantastic feeling!
As for working pff, got the org on refresh! mwahaha. Thanks to those who spread the words at the concert about NPGUK (UK & Ireland Prince Group) we ve had loads of requests and anyone who wants to join us is more than welcome

Prince left the concert in a police escort direct to the airport shortly after he got off stage, one of our taxi drivers back from the Tripod updated us he didnt go to Malahide and worked the airport instead! Wonder where he went.. looking for new sound technicians or equipment maybe in London?

Thankfully I am self employed, so I gave myself the day off today, wouldn't have been able to work anyway. Gonna watch and download as many of the Malahide vids on Youtube before they are gone. | |

What can we say...there is something about Prince that brings out extremes in people (emotional, sexual, spiritual...as 4 some haters here, even jealousy).
Fact remains, Prince is one of, if not THE greatest live performer now...and many of us have known this for many many years.
I do challenge Prince though: funk the hits, on each release of yours, there is a gem. Play them, people love surprises and not just the hardcore fans.
Love u Prince...1 of a kind, i mean king

agree the abrupt end was quite shocking i thought , but the soundcheck as we walk thru the park heading into the concert around 5 was even more shocking as my sister said "thats not him" i was like "think it is" it was unbeleivable he was soundchecking soooooooo late but my sister got the treat of her life as he soundchecked "forever in my life" FOOOK ME !! WHAT A DAY , IL NEVER FORGET IT , THANK YOU Prince big hugs(like the 1 you gav the support group) havu had u + today ? fookn rite ! | |

What an amazing show. 20 years a fan and my 9th time seeing him, and every time he has delivered. Sound was really great, which was such a relief after reading about Cologne. Doesn't quite top London in 2006, but it's a close second.
It was our first time playing as a Prince band, but I think we might keep doing it - so much fun. If you're interested, you can hear/see some tracks here. http://www.facebook.com/s...hetimesIRL

I can't even listen to Prince right now, or Ill get obsessed with the dates left in the tour and how to do it all... In an alternative reality! It's an Amy Winehouse day today or Ill annoy myself too much. is it possible for a concert to be too bloody good?? | |

WOW, thanks for this one - I recognise those hands, lol - its my friend and mine (purple and pink nail varnish).. !!!!! I feel exactly the same - cant concentrate on anything other than checking out links, keeping the memory alive and fresh of an amazing concert. I am an addict and need more Prince!!! What are we like? I feel like a teenager again, lol!!!! | |

Get your facts straight and don't mislead others. Mayte's tweet states: "Just left a beautiful wedding. True love does exist!" She doesn't say anything about Prince. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

I was just gonna post the same...there is no mention of Prince marrying Andy. He probably left Dublin to go back to his Paris residency. That's how rumours start [Edited 8/1/11 9:57am] so, what is the answer 2 the question of U | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Having serious withdrawal symptoms, had to go back to work today and was soooo not in the mood, but if he has a home in Paris we may see more of him play here in Europe!!! | |

Andy Allo has put the pics that Prince took on stage of the Dublin crowd, on her facebook. See if you can spot yourself!

Does anyone have a close up video of him doing kiss?, this was my favourite part of the show but no one seems t have video, (probably coz he was so sexy dancing everyone was mesmerised i know i was )

May i just say how brilliant you guys were! Got to Gibneys shortly after the gig, and we were contemplating leaving since it was so packed, but you guys were BRILLIANT. Me and my friend loved your version of I Wanna Be Your Lover, with the funky outro and everything. A great ending to a great night! | |

I love hearing all these stories! Glad he put on a great performance for you! It takes me back to Hop Farm, I was walking around with an inane grin on my face for days afterwards. He definitely needs to pay us another visit soon! | |
