It was the best ever. My wife and I were in section 3 4th row back and it was hot. Musicology was the opener, I loved the Leno performance of that song but this performance was tight. I know when my wife gets up and jam then its on the show lasted 2hrs and probably his best ive seen since Lovesexy.

I was in section 2 row C (which was actually a front row seat!!!!!), and had a blast. Great show, lots of guitar, he looked like he was enjoying himself. I was staring up P's nostrils for maybe 1/4 of the show (when it wasn't P, it was Candy, who looks A LOT better in person than in photo).

One of the greatest things about a Prince show, is the crowd. Probably one of the most courteous crowds I've ever been in (yeah a couple of drunks tried, but what can you do). Sat (stood) between 2 couples I'd never met before, and had a great time w/ them...

This is too true...there were some annoying folks at the shows I went to, but that's bound to happen when you get any huge group of people together...but overall, I felt really comfortable with everyone there, and overall the vibe was just incredibly warm and friendly. I'm glad you had a good time at the show!

Whats this about running out of cds???

WE were in section 4 front row....WOW. We had a blast! We were right between the stairs the drummer and keyboard guy used so we saw them alot. Then right before "PurpleRain" Prince came down those stairs to. Too Cool! My 10 year old is jelouse the kids put in a Prince DVD so that they could have a concert too

After the concert, they announced an "official NPG aftershow" on the loudspeaker....and then when the announcer repeated it, he changed it to "official NPG afterparty."

Unfortunately, I was with my little brother who's underage, so I didn't think he would be able to get into a club. Plus I had to drive a couple hours home and make it to work early this morning....but obviously I SO wanted to go!!!

Did anybody go check it out? If so, could you hip us to some details? How much was the cover? Was there a performance?

Prince rocked and funked the house down in Cincy last nite my ears are still ringing.....I beleive it was almost a sellout crowd and we showed Prince the love.....I had awesome seats thanks to NPGMC I was in section 8 FRONT ROW we were by Rhonda but I could see Prince almost the whole time except when he was on the side of the arena furthest from me.....the set list is basically the same he has been playing except he has the acoustic set in the middle of the show now which I think works really good....a couple highlights of the show for me was when he did "Question of U".....damn his guitar playing just blows me away everytime....and when he did "The One".....he was right by us when the part he gets down on his knees and he is just so into it.....I was screaming like a horny teenager.....LOL.....there were a few times he was close enough to me I could see the sweat pouring off him.....hehehehe

One thing that was disappointing is we were very late getting to the arena cuz parking in Cincinnati is a freaking nightmare plus it was raining/sleeting/snowing outside....in April can U beleive that....thank god there was no Reds game cuz their stadium is located right next to US Bank Arena so we get to the will call window and when we walk in the show is starting....and by the time we got to our seats Musicology was almost over and we didnt get our FREE CD.....they apparently ran out of them....not real happy about that

They did announce an official aftershow at Jillians nightclub and me and my friend look at each other like no freaking way then the PA guy came back on and corrected himself and said after party.....well it was on our way home so we thought we would go check it out....and about midnite we are hanging out the side of Jillians in the car....and hear comes Prince in a big white limo and we saw him get out and go in the back entrance.....hehehehe........we didnt go in cuz it was a $20.00 cover charge even for NPG members.....so we called it a nite and went home

Now I got to get ready for Columbus on Friday nite!! Peace!!

I was there last night too & it was my 8th time seeing Prince & it was his best show. I had a blast! I love the acoustic part & Sign O the Times & When Doves Cry sounded great, what am i saying it was all great! He throws one hell of a party! I just hope that eventually he brings this tour on dvd because i would love to be able to watch it over & over again.
Peace.....Randy

I was in Section 118 Row H Seat 3 and man this was a great section. I was eye level with the stage which i was suprised with. After all the people around me were removed and re-seated by security, i finally got to enjoy my show. The set list was amazing, but didn't include many of the numbers that have been listed before **no insatiable, no adore, no ride** However, we were treated to full renditions of most of the songs that he just shot thru on other dates. Shh was the highlight of my night, the gold album is my favorite. And mixing "A Womans Worth" with "The One" was TIGHT!!! Go Candy!!!! There were a number of songs that I wasn't familar with "Sweet Thang" being one of them. I am ignunt and I shall raise my hand. I was too into the show to remember the set list, so if anyone can give it to us I would be thankful. But in my opinion, This is the best show that I have seen. Thank You for the full song, not just a snipit.

No tourbooks yet huh?
I noticed that the NPGMC has tourbooks for sale. Does anyone know if they are the old ones or the updated version?

I was in section 6 row c which was really the 2nd row, i was right at the front of thestage. I took my fiance Bridgett and it was the closest she has ever seen prince. She was'nt able 2 attend the Xenophobia celly so i was hoping that the seats would be great and they were. We sat at the end of the stage where the band walked thru b4 and after the show. I was told by friends that they saw us on the big screen a couple of times, i hope we make it on the dvd. Anyway the show was great lots of energy the band was TYTE as usual. I miss prince doing the splits but he's still phonkey as heck!!! My bday is 4/14 so it was a great present 4me. Best 1 since 4/14/2000 when i celebrated by seeing the TIME at BOGARTS night club in Cincy. I might do 1 of the Minny shows but i will probably go to the Essence festival 2 see him on july 2nd. I love prince's hits but after listening 2 Musicology i want the new shtit from Slaughterhouse, Choc. Invasion plus some TRC. The weather was horrible but the Purple Reign made it so much mo better, long live the 1!!!!!

Prince was on fire! Did anyone go in the afterparty? Did he play, sing or just make an appearance?

i was in section 6 in the second row on the end. i was eye to eye with mike scott. it was a great seat because i could see every move Prince made. some female drunk spilled beer on my pants .while sitting in my car, in the parking garage, waiting for the cars to exit here walks 3 girls ( drunk as a skunk ) pass my car and 2 of the girls fell down. i swear to you this one chick did a back hand flip when she fell. this was so funny. some guy came over to help them up. they were so wet and muddy. PRINCE is still simply best.

Yeah I saw her fall 2 LOL

no, the so called security was bulliing people around for no reason, that makes us drunks?
