I will be there (at the show that is).

I think Yoshi's would be a cool place for an Aftershow, but for some reason can't imagine Prince playing there. It's pretty close to Oracle though. Wishful thinking on my part.

Regarding a possible after show......

Yoshi's doesn't stay open that late, even on weekends. It doesn't seem to fit anyway.

There's a place on Telegraph called the Uptown Night Club. It's right up the street from the Fox Theater. I'm not just throwing it out there because of the connection to the song, but it's the only place I can think of that's usually open anyway and is the right size for that sort of thing. I checked the website of the venue. They have stuff scheduled both nights, but nothing that couldn't be canceled in a hot minute.

I'm actually more interested in a possible stealth show on Tuesday. It would probably be more of a private party to avoid possible conflict of interest issues with the current promoter, but I could see it happening.

That's an interesting theory. I've been wondering what was going down on the off day between shows as well.

I wouldn't doubt that he throws an aftershow and donates it to a local charity. Prince was in San Francisco late last year in the Tenderloin district. It was reported in the newspapers and recall someone posting it in the org. I could have swornt the article said he was spotted in a non profit that helps the homeless in SF.

past after shows in the Bay Area have almost always been at DNA Lounge or Slims. while it is a bit of a trek, it seems more likely to me.
