great show.....another free one.....great to live in Vegas....but it is going to suck when Prince leaves.....pretty packed for a Wednesday.....and if you can imagine a Canadian version of Bjork with soul.....that is what Esthero is.....at one point she did an impression of Bjork that sent chills down my spine it was so good.....but she has an amazing voice.....and she didn't cuss because she "was in Prince's house"

another interesting thing is that there were tables and chairs on the dance floor up front.....not sure if they will be there for future shows but i guess if they are, it is one way for fan club members to sit down in chairs rather than on the floor

What songs did she perform? I hate I missed that concert. She is my favorite female vocalist right now.

I am not sure actually. I don't know her work. But 2 guys (one was her brother) were with her playing acoustic guitars and they sounded great. Her father was right up front and gave her some liquor at one point. I left early so am not sure if Prince was even there or came up on stage.

But she did a great Bjork and an Erikah Badou impression.

I ADORE ESTHERO.

She blends jazz, hip-hop, rock, and soul so seamlessly. I only hope that she won't be referred to from here on out as a Prince associated artist; she's been working her tail off for 10 years, with artists from North America to Japan...

does anyone here remember the track she cut waaay back when with The Black Eyed Peas, when they were a hip hop group, called "Weekend"? That use to be my cut!

Wow, you are getting the most out of these Vegas shows. She's so cool..I love her music. It has a jazzy, hip-hop, blues sound to it. I love the track "My Torture" and "Thank Heaven for You"...love it!!!
