I've seen this guy 9 times in concert
beginning with the Triple Threat tour.
And I must say,
every show has aways reminded me why this fucker is my favorite artist.

I'm not embellshing or even trying to brag because I've been very very
lucky to witness and experience Prince's live performances over 50 times(lost count, honest).
I was privileged to be in Mpls when he would play every 2nd or 3rd weekend,
in 93, 94, and 1995.
My favorite night of music started at 1st Ave seeing TTD and then going out
to Paisley Park the same night to see Prince perform until 3 or 4 in the morning....
My two favorite artists and musical angels in one night!
It seemed heavenly but also completely normal like this how life is
supposed to be...but now I know this was a once in a lifetime event, never
to be duplicated. I can remember exactly where I was during both
concerts and that will be with me until the day I die.
The amazing thing really is that I...and many of us have been blessed
to be witness and touched by this man's God-given talent and beautiful
soul. I look back on all the times I've seen him. At Paisley. At small
venues. In arenas. And with 40,000+ screaming fans in downtown Mpls during
Mill City Fest. All amazing, all brilliant. And just as exciting, the thought
of seeing him again sometime soon I hope in the near future.
If anything, the one thing we all share here is the passion and thrill when we're holding that elusive 'golden ticket' that says "Prince: Live in Concert"
There is nothing on the planet like it. Nothing.

every friday nights at the Park for about a year or so, plus at the two celebrations. I would get in for free. Now when I see the price of the tickets at the Rio, I can't believe it.

and gone to a handful of aftershows too.

I came close to that dream.

By the time I was old enough to see him, I wasn't all that down so:
Jam of the Year
Musicology (twice and The Time opened both nights)
With Tamar (if that counts as seeing him in concert, he was a very real part of the experience)
3121 in Vegas
3121 aftershow in Vegas

So only 6 different shows.
After being physically so close to Prince at the last three shows, I almost feel like I know him as if he's one of my boys. I don't usually allow random people in my space like that.
