It was good and yes it was at The Roxy. It was surreal because I had just come from the show at the Fleet Center, first time seeing Prince ever but there was something empty about that show. I think it was because I had been listening to so many Prince boots of that era and I could almost always predict what song was up next. Anyway, it was a good show but didn't compare to the ONA Tour or even the Musicology tour.

But anyway the after show.....it was so long ago but what I remember about it was his bald headed bodyguard standing on the edge of the stage over-lording over the audience. I remember seeing Prince off stage shadow boxing, I guess trying to warm up before he came on. I don't really recall him doing any of his songs but I remember he busted out a lot of Motown and old soul covers. He stayed on for about 45 mins and then left. I was hoping he'd play his guitar but he never did. What I do recall is how such a small band made so much noise. I've been looking for a boot of the Fleet Center show but no luck yet.

I also saw The Time at The Roxy a few months earlier.

nod Yup, that Time show was off the hinges, lol.

One highlight I do remember was that Prince did "Johnny" and I was like a body away from the stage just to the side. When he raised his fist at the 'my Johnny gets hard..harder than the handle on the.." he looked over at my girlfriend and I because we were doing it at the same time. It was her first Prince concert, but she'd seen me do it so many times it was instinctive, lol. Big fun.

Now that's C-O-O-L

Does Worcester count? I saw him there on the Lovesexy tour from promoter seats, it was incredible!

And on a somewhat related subject, I'm seeing Lenny in 3 weeks at the Wang music
