Was the awesome or what? Just going through the 'Prince Live' old VHS tape and this show was a classic! The extended version of Purple Rain is amazing. Just wanted to know if anybody here actually attended the live show. Peace!

On the Purple Rain tour, I attended 4 shows. Two at the Forum and two at Long Beach. I have the VHS tape of the show you're talking about as well. His Forum show, the one Madonna came to, he turned it out. And both of his Long Beach shows were killing. Played the song Purple Rain for damn near twenty minutes!

I wasn't there as I live in the UK !! However I have the Video also have two CD recordings of Syracuse and Atlanta 85 - Both seriously kick ass, probably my most listened to concerts - I love the Interlude just before Do Me, Baby....Reminds me of hanging out with my friends and blasting the hell out of the old Telly with the Video - Back in the day when Televisions came in wooden boxes and had more buttons than a Dressmakers !!!!!

"Can U Hear Me?" "Can U See Me?" "Dig If U Will The Picture"
"OF U and I....Engaged In A Kiss" "I Love U.....And Whats More....I Want U.....Do U Want Me" "I'd Love To Take U To My House" "Its A Purple House"
"Would U Like To Go?" "I'll Take U .....But U Have To Promise Me One Thing"
"That U'll Stay With Me Forever" "I Love U .....I Love U So Very Much..."
"And Yet....I Can't" "I Cant"

"Oh My Darling Close Your Eyes And Try To Imagine" "As The Rain Begins To Fall.....17 Days" "Yes I Love U" "I KNew it the Moment I laid Eyes On U"
"And Yet....I Can't" "Something"

"Close Ur Eyes And Imagine As The Rain Falls Faster And Faster And Faster And Faster"
"Do U Believe In Love?" "Do U Believe In Lust?" "Then This Songs 4 U"
