6th Oakland Review

Ok I feel better now, I got the sleep back in me and now I'm ready to deliver the scoop. I got to the arena around 7:30 pm, I couldn't wait at my cousins anymore, I was too excited. When i got to the arena, there was a small crowd outside and I didn't waitlong period to get my ticket, 2 minutes max. The ushers began to let the people inside around 7:50 pm, I made it to my seat around 8:30. I heard NPG Ahdio 1 playing, then the dj played some rap then ended with Prince's music. Can u believe this? The show started at 8:50, I thought Prince was always fashionably late smile.


Anyway Millenia took the stage and sung a couple songs, but the song that stuck with me was proud mary. Their performance, well let's just say they need more practice and they shouldn't be opening for Prince. Next, was DVS, the boy has potential! Oh my goodness, the funky bald heads were just outrageous, they started with "a funky good time." Somebody is in need of some serious guitar lessons, but the gave us funky a good time! Who said Kirky couldn't beat the hell out of those drums. They pulled somebody from the audience and shaved their head, just hilarious, and guess who walks out in the middle of their performance, Prince! Well, last but not least he and the NPG graced the floor. Geneva, what happened, did she take dance lessons or something, because ole girl tore that floor up saturday night. Najeeeee! Man, he can blow! Kip, just played as lovely as he wanted to, but Prince kept kicking him off the keyboards. They played oh shit, let's see, well hell I can't remember but I can remember that he played UMMSS, and it was awful. I liked the instrumental music to the work, but I think personally the lyrics are said too fast for the song. But overall, the concert was the best I had attended.



U could actually hear Prince sing lyrics! Prince talked about God and Jesus, and said that eveyone who is not self employed r slaves. Hmmm, now where did I hear that before? Anyways, he also said he is no longer dealing with record industries because they involve contracts and the only way u could get his music now was by joining the NPGMC. He had a lot CD's for sell for $5, of course i bought supercute/underneath the cream. He had that poster on sell, damn I was just joking, I don't buy semi porno or porno, but if u send it to me, I'll pen it on my wall, thumb tack some clothes on it and then remove the clothes and play pin the penis on Prince when I have company. Don't get mad if we pin in it the wrong area, it's not like ur clueless smile.


Prince wore the same wardrobe he wore at other concerts, and I think one of two outfits were the same outfits he wore at the first hit and run gig! Larry graham was in the house but he didn't perform, huh? Was he afraid? He sat on the stage right in front in me the entire performance. Where was Doug?



I've got two complaints, I paid good money to sit in section b row 2 seat 1. When PRince came to my side of the stage, everybody bum rushed the area and security could not control the crowd. The people who were in the levels had a better seat than the people on left side of the stage did. Some woman came flying out of nowhere just to get a chance to touch prince when he started shaking people's hands. Some drunk b#$%6 came from out nowhere took somebody's seat, stood in it and fell on some poor fat girl behind her, I'm glad she didn't fall on me. The girl didn't get hurt, she had cushion to break fall. But the fat girl was pissed, It think she got slapped in the process. I asked her was she alright she said and this nasty w@##$ started leaving and coming back through the aisle stepping on the chairs. I had my purse and my jacket on my chair and this cow stepped on both of them and crushed everything in my purse including my brand new prescription eye glasses. She wouldn't aplologize or anything. I wanted to beat her ass right there but I didn't because a 1000 other people were ready to fight. The men were perverted they were always touching u and groping u and screaming and calling their friends on their cell phones to make sure the other person had seen everytime Geneva bent over, showed her ass, or lifted her skirt. It was amazingly crazy! It is dangerous in the VIP section, but yet he charges so much to be there. I'll be happy with a $30 ticket from now on. To end on that note. Prince brought that lovely booty to my side of the stage all night long! smile Peace and much love u all!
