Just got a phone call about 1st Melbourne gig - Review.

Sketchy reveiw, I'll let those who were there tell it all, but from what I can gather:

Concert was similar (songwise) to Hong Kong gig
Prince was in a great mood.
Stage was pretty plain, the only prop was the "Pearls" chandelere during "Insatible", same prop from the Diamonds & Pearls" tour.

Onstage seating is split into 3 sections, about 10 to one side, some in the middle between keyboard player and Prince, and some to the other side (hope i got that right).
He also got those people to dance alot on stage.
Used the Tele guitar, habibi on Purple Rain, and that new blue Fender strat he used on the LA gig earlier this year.

He did "Sign O The Times" with no guitar whofarted

Details are still sketchy, anyone wanna add anything else?

This is all that I have heard so far

Members were handed green wrist tags and go to "The Prince Of Wales" after the show, which is where everyone is headed now

From where I was sitting it looked like a lovely shade of baby blue.
