Who's 'The Prince Fam Club' ? "We just let people talk & say whatever they want 2 say. 9 times out of 10, trust me, what's out there now, I wouldn't give nary one of these folks the time of day. That's why I don't say anything back, because there's so much that's wrong" - P, Dec '15 | |

I thought PRN family was hosting something at the Muse Oct 12 - 15??? So confusing keeping all the different events straight as the continue to add on last minute even. This sounds more fun than the tribute actually. Sadly I have to work fri morning. Plus I'm attending the tribute with my pregnant DIL who doesn't want to be out that late. It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. We all need one another. ~ PRN | |

Prince fanclub is official and has a twitter account. The North Star group is run I believe by Londell and partners. Business Manager to Cat Glover. |

I sure would like to hear some reports on the after show from orgers who attended... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

The concert ran so long this didn't start til after 1AM and done by 2AM. For $65. Wish I had saved my money. It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it.

For me it was a cool experience to actually be at First Ave to see them perform. Had it been another location, I probably wouldn't have bought a ticket since I had already paid for a ticket to Muse that night. The show seemed to have ended pretty abruptly and a lot of us were looking around, like it's over already? I don't think anyone had expected the tribute concert to be that late. Luckily, the party at Muse went til 4 that night, or should I say morning, so when Morris and the Time finished, I went to Muse. | |

This was...interesting. I bought tickets because I really wanted to see Morris at First Avenue. When we toured First Ave. earlier I asked what they would do if the concert ran longer. Her response is that they had been told the concert would end at 9 | |

I had already heard 11 from someone else. Anyhow, left Xcel as soon as it was over and went straight to F.A. Bilal was singing his last song. Morris Day and the Time waited for the crowd to come over from Xcel, starting about 1 and played 5 or so songs. Londell McMillan, Stevie Wonder and their entourage arrived about halfway into Morris' set. They were upstairs surrounded by security and no one was allowed near them. So basically I paid $130+ for 5 songs by Morris and then staff cut on the lights and starting asking people to leave. I wasn't terribly happy. However, getting to be in the crowd, 3 rows away from Morris on the very stage where Purple Rain performances were filmed, for his first performance at First Avenue in over 20 years was a once in a lifetime experience so I'll just eat cereal for the rest of the month.

I went to this...or at least to an hour or so of it, since we reached First Ave just before 1:00. We got there shortly before Bilal went on stage, followed later by The Time.
