If Terence Trent D'arby and Lenny Kravitz are considered Prince-related then I saw them live too--only one headlining show each though.

Nikka Costa would be someone else who falls in that category. I've seen her many times.

They worked with him/shared the stage with him, so if James Brown is considered Prince-related they are too .

If I had seen Nikka Costa I sure would have put her on my list

If that's the case, add Lenny to my list...I've seen him 5 or 6 times (twice he opened for Aerosmith, once the Black Crowes opened for Lenny, once Smashmouth opened...I forget the rest), and I saw Nikka Costa play with Prince at the Aladdin in Vegas, 2002 I think...

Since we are expanding the Prince circle, I forgot about Amy Winehouse. I saw her live twice.

I've seen Alicia Keys live a few times.

I saw Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings once live too.

To consider every artist with whom Prince has shared a stage enlarges the potential list considerably. Like all those guys who played with him on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony. I never before would have thought Tom Petty and Steve Winwood were Prince-related artists.

Okay I would not consider Tom Petty and Steve Winwood Prince-related artists - but soembody like Lenny Kravitz who performed with Prince several times because Prince chose him to do so is Prince-related IMO . Amy Winehouse, Alicia Keys and Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings all are artists who also were chosen by Prince to perform with/for him - so I would have added them to my list too. And I am still pissed I chose not to see Amy live when my ex wanted to go and see her with me .

I see the distinction now between Prince-related artists and "Prince-related" artists.

The first time I saw Amy Winehouse was her first ever U.S. show I believe so she was still humble and eager to please the audience. The funny thing about that gig was I went because The Pipettes were the opening act whom I loved at the time. I may not have even known who Amy Winehouse was when the show was announced.

The second time I saw her was a few months later, but by then she had already settled into the some of the bad stage behavior which eventually tarnished her reputation as a live act. It was still a good show though.

Because of that reputation you mention I didn't want to see her . Now I regret it.

I've seen Candy Dulfer (doing her own shows) a few times.

I've seen Sheila perform with Prince, but I've not been to any of her own shows.

I've seen the Time open for Prince, and also at First Avenue back in October.

I saw Judith Hill and Andre Cymone at the Muse Event Center in MPLS in October.

I saw a number of Prince-related acts at the October Tribute concert!

Last and not least...I saw Sheena Easton here in Las Vegas on Saturday night! http://prince.org/msg/5/437921
