From Chicago to Champaigne lol

I don't go out of my way to see Prince play. I've always been lucky enough to live in places where I can wait for him to come to where I am.

Generally, I've never really traveled just for a concert. shrug

Yeah it's like "oh you mocked me for liking him but now he's dead it's cool to play him again?" And then they look at you funny when you don't play him. -Timmy on after 6-25 fans

I've traveled from Cleveland to Minneapolis to see Prince perform. It was worth every penny spent.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

I traveled from Anchorage to South Anchorage, aka Honolulu, Hawaii, in February 1997, for Prince's anniversary (with then wife Mayte)/ Love4OneAnother Chairty Tour gig. At the time I was living in Alaska. Best $2000 I spent (charged!) on short notice!

I spent a total of 54 hours in Honolulu. I went from minus-10 F to 78-80F and then back to minus-5.

From Chicago to Vegas and it was worth every inch of land between the two!

I've seen him 15 times live and the phrase Prince concert still = excited

I traveled from Chicago to Vegas to see him. He pulled my boyfriend at the time on stage and told the audience that my boyfriend was his nephew because they looked so much alike. The week before my boyfriend and I saw him perform in Chicago, and Prince allowed him to come on stage and sing a couple of verses of "KISS". After the show, people kept coming up to me asking if my boyfriend was really Prince's nephew. They even asked me the same question a week later in Vegas. It was crazy. Hit and Run tour it was. 2001 I believe.
I didn't even know last night was the ten year anniversary of Prince Night. I'm sure glad I went! I've been going off and on since 1997.

L.A. to Cork, Ireland. OK, actually I was on vacation and he was playing, but it was the furthest I've gone to see him and it was an amazing show.

2nd furthest is L.A. to Vegas for 3121.
The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018. (www.amazon.com/gp/product/1538114623/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0) or www.facebook.com/groups/1...104195943/

*Detroit 2 Chicago (nothing but U on my mind... lol I couldn't resist!) 2 see him and Tamar (got flashed by the twins all night, almost had my hand pierced by Prince's high heeled boot, got pulled onstage with a bunch of other folks, got a guitar pick, got 2 shake Prince's hand, had my numerous requests 2 play Prince's guitar turned down with a sly grin, and was inches away from him when he turned around 2 face me and my bandmate during the "Play that Funky Music" intro, while he made the "funky" face 2 us. cool )

*Detroit 2 Cleveland on the Musicology tour.

Does his name begin with a "J" and end with an "N"?
