I can't speak for anyone else, but my Prince encounter was a very pleasant one. My brother, two friends and I were near the front at the original Vegas shows when we saw Prince nearby. He chatted with us in a friendly way and was very gracious. Then I got onstage to sing "Peach" and after I was done, he got a security guard to give me $40.

If you do get up close to Prince, don't put your hand on his shoulder!

That was hilarious. Not your performance -- you were great -- but that he paid you. I forgot about that. (The look on his face when you were performing was priceless. I've never seen Prince smile and laugh like that.)

Wait -- he gave you $40? How did the rest of us end up paying for our own breakfast at Denny's?

(Kidding... )

question:

if you`re in Vegas and go to 3121... how do you know when Prince is coming or when he regularly comes

are these dates posted and planned or is it just unexpectedly?

i plan on going ... thats why i ask

This is pretty damn funny! Dude cracks me up sometimes, paying a fan $40 for singing is classic!

What date was this? It'd be cool to hear...if we're lucky.

I don't know what I'm bitching about. That whole episode was definitely worth the price of a cheeseburger.

It's not a wobbit, it's a HOBBITCH! :lothan'sspleenexplodes:

Oh, shit -- I forgot the wobbit part!

This was during the purple rain tour.
Prince had 6 dates in houston, I was lucky enough to attend 2 of his shows. I had read in the paper that prince was looking for "that special someone in the audience" to come and dance on stage, which I'm sure was just a rumor, but just in case.....I went to North Beach leather to find a purple leather dress...which was way too expensive. I managed to find the perfect cotton blend outfit, with a hot pink jacket, which I thought was sure to catch his attention.

At the concert, I saw him at the corner of the stage, so I walked down the steps so he could see me. The second night, right before he sang Purple Rain, somebody ( it may have been me, started the ooooohhs and had the entire stadium singing before he came on) He acknowledged the crowd and the mood was set.

Later that night, Me and my buddies went to a local club and were just doing our thing, then I start hearing Prince is in the club. I didn't beleive anybody, but they kept telling me he was there. So I went upstairs, looked around, and who do I see at the bar. Our eyes locked and I thought I would pass out. I had to tell myself it wasn't him, so I wouldn't die right there on the spot. Biggest mistake of my life. I may have been dreaming, but I swear, he looked afraid and in love at the same time. I wanted to kiss him, but who was I?. I was stupid enough to go see purle rain 20 times, but did he know that??? Did he know?

So I think, that if he knows you, he would more than likely be amicable.

I hope he comes to see the big yellow amazon at least once more.

I have a question,I would like to know, to the fans who have met Prince, or been near him in the past at like shows or private events, how does he treat his fans?

Share stories.

I'm very interested in learning about this.
