The Richmond show was not to be missed for those of you afraid of the ticket price. His set was almost the same as Worcester as I compare it to Prince.org reports, but he closed with a tight, 10 to 15 minute Come On groove that made the admission costs a bargain. Other notables were Father's Song and a near perfect dose of Purple Rain. Add what amounted to an hour of Najee, and this show could have sold for the Fairfax ticket price of $85 easily.


The latter half of the show outshined the former, especially since the sound cleared-up after the first few songs. Rhonda's play was a bit loud when she wasn't on the upright base; by the way, she plays that maybe better than the alembic.


On a personal note, this was my sixth show with my wife, and Prince always reminds me what a delight it is to hold hands with her. Thank you, Mr. Nelson. See you on Friday.
