My first Prince concert was on the Rick James Tour. It was either 1979 or 1980. I was in the 5th grade at the time.



no disrespect to your parents but what the censored were you doing at a rick james concert at that age?


lol


I don't know what my mother was thinking..lol. But let me tell you she was more shocked by Prince than she was by Rick.She had no idea that he was going to be performing in nothing but a trench coat, thigh highs, bikini underwear and high-heeled boats biggrin .That was the day I fell in love with Prince. It was all she wrote after going to that concert. I was hooked. lol

The only thing I remember about Rick's performance was that part of his stage setup were 2 giant blunt props at opposite ends of the stage and that he had everyone flick their lighters and 'fire it up.' biggrin

My mom and I laugh about it to this day. lol

I know someone that worked for Warner Bros back in the 70's. The company flew him out to Minniapolis for the show at the Capri.

I first saw him at Flipper's in Los Angeles for the Dirty Mind tour and saw every tour after that!!!


BTW, I wish you could have been there when he described the show at the Capri in 1978. CLASSIC!

LOL!!
