I patted Prince on the back as he walked past me at a concert in london! I have also shaken hands with Morris Hayes and Maceo Parker. I also said "nice playing" to Johnny Blackwell after a concert. He said "thanks" to me! Beat that! The Tao te Ching gives advice to rulers:

That is the exact night I was going to post about! I went to Trocaderos every Thursday to see The Truth and the one night I didn't make it I found out Prince had shown up. 'You must first be a Prince before you can be King'

I was about 4 feet away from lil' man as he stepped out of his limo on the way to the Nokia theater last year.
But I couldn't afford tickets to the concert though. [Edited 2/22/07 15:01pm] NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |

Thanks to the now "defunct???" NPGMC, I got front row seats to see Prince in D.C. at the MCI Center for the Musicology tour. I was so close to him that I could have grabbed his ankles from the stage!!! It was tempting but I didn't want security to grab MY ankles!!! I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

I almost saw Prince a couple years ago at a show that almost no one knows he even did. He was in Reno for a week rehearsing for the Musicology tour, which he would actually open in Reno (officially in L.A. the next night). During that week, I drove by the coliseum a couple times and saw a lot of action there. I so much would've loved to have peaked in at the rehearsals. Anyway, one night, the Reno Hilton was bathed in purple light, and I just had this feeling that Prince was doing something there that night -- I mean he was in town, right? But that same night, I was fighting a real bad flu bug, and I fought and fought within myself whether I should go over to the Reno Hilton and see what was going on. But I wasn't feeling good at all, so I drove home. I became even sicker the next day when I read in the paper that Prince performed at the Reno Hilton the night before. Hardly anyone knew he was going to be there. It was a surprise performance, and if not for my flu, I would've been there too! I think it was Wednesday night, two days before he opened the biggest selling tour of 2004. [Edited 2/22/07 22:29pm] | |

When I did meet Prince at the press conference in NY as posted earlier, I told him that I looked forward to working with him. I introduced myself and he repeated my full name twice. I told him to remember it because I WILL be working with him. He said, in that voice of his.."I look forward to it". A few days later he posted if you want to audition for him bring a tape with you to the celebration at Paisley Park. My working with Prince.....stay tuned "......I gotta' lotta' butta' 2 go" | |
