MY BAKERSFIELD REPORT... HOT SHOW!!! Let me start with the tickets so we can clear the air and address some concerns. I'm almost sure ur tickets r assigned once u purchase them. They r not randomly givin out at will call. I read earlier in the month that they select seating according 2 ur last name and that could b true cuz my last name begins with an A and I was in section 2 front row (rite behind Chance). Also, once u go in, they hand u his new cd which is in a cd sleeve and not a jewel case.
The set list was pretty much the same as L A but I must say that the acoustic set is a highlite! Candy took over vocals on "the One". Originally that was Rad's part but since she is no more... Candy sing's good though. Very impressed. All the horn players play a big part in pumping up the crowd. At one point Prince motioned one of the audience members pointing 2 him-self nodding "no" then pointing up 2 God as if 2 say "don't look 2 me but look 2 God!". Thought that was kinda cool. Homeboy even had diamonds on his heels. Prince does really work all corners of the stage. I had family all around the stage and I asked them if they thought he didn't spend 2 much time on thier side and they said that they thought he did. So he dosen't leave anybody hanging! All in all it was a good show. Started at 8 and eneded around 10:30. Oh yeah, they said he was wheeled in and out of the stage/arena in a box. I asked one of the staff memberes and thats what they told me. Then one of my family members said they saw them do this. Can u imagin him all bundled up in a roll away box? And one more thing, the security staff also said that he did a sound check 4 about an hour up in till 6:30. I asked if he was stern with anybody and they said yes. U no Prince ppl, he want's all that stuff rite. Gotta sound good! Well, thats it. I have some pix of his crew breaking down the stage but I dont no how 2 load them on The Org. If someone can help me with this I will load them. Plz don't miss this show. 2 Hot! Klick2me klick | |

Usually when you purchase your tickets via ticketmaster and have them left at the Will Call window, they are assigned just as if you had them sent to your house. you get the "best available" when you call, and that is what you pick up. | |
