First show: 1999 tour with The Time and Vanity 6! April 1983 in Oakland Ca. GREAT SHOW! AMAZING!

Last show: Musicology tour. 2004 in San Jose Ca.

Last show of the tour. Show was OK....being the last show of the tour I thought it would be longer or he would do something a little different. But he cut the show a little short compared to the other 6 shows I saw from that tour.

My first:

SIGN "☮" THE TIMES.... in Göteborg/ Gothenborg Sweden 1987,

I missed the Parade tour in Valby Hallen Denmark 1986...

First Prince show I saw was in 1982 - Controversy tour at the Met Stadium (no longer there - Mall of America is where the Met used to be.) The next night I went to First Ave. to see Defunkt. They played a full set and then.... surprise! my second Prince show! Prince with Sue Ann Carwell and Morris Day etc. jammed at First Ave. This one is out on boots and such. Damn! I'm so lucky to have seen this show and the 1983 First Ave show and the "For Those of You on Valium" show too plus a jam in the 7th Street Entry in '84 and on and on..... Those were the days!

Both shows

2nd Show Row 3 Aisle Seats Main floor,Main side of Round

Remains to be the best seats I have ever had in an arena Concert

Countless up closes for Paisley Park though

Oh my friend!!! Details, details, details PLEASE! I have been to a ton as well, but didn't move here until 1991. If ever there were concerts I wish I had been to, it was those. Wendy, Lisa, Susannah, Jill, George, Mavis??? When did they get on stage and for what songs? Did you go to the aftershow at Paisley Park in the parking lot, if so, do you remeber the songs? I remember seeing a news clip on MTV back in the day and they were interviewing people going into the party/aftershow. What about the Glam Slam video shoot and that concert in May of 88? Did you go to that as well?

First: Werchter Boutique, Belgium, June 2010

Last: Nice, France, July 2010

1st - 1993 SF Bill Graham Civic, missed the DNA aftershow at Slims, heard about it via radio while halfway across the golden gate bridge

It was the Controversy Tour. Missed Vanity 6, got there when The Time was on.

Then Mr. Prince came out in his leg warmers and bikini with that raincoat over it.

I'll never forget it. Awesome show. I still have the shirt!!!

Last prince concert was in Las Vegas 2006. The empire Ballroom...(3121)

Got in at 6pm left at 12:30 am...Prince was not very happy that night, but it was a very

intimate setting...and lasted a long, long time......chriss....

First - Diamonds and Perals - Earls Court 1192

Last - 21 Nights at O2 - 2007

Opening night of the Purple Rain tour in 1985 at the Cow Palace San Francisco, Ca. I believe he played either 5 or 7 nights there. I had tickets for the last night but I owed money to my aunt so I had to give her my tickets.

Last show I saw was at the ORPHEUM Theatre in San Franscisco 2007.

Lovesexy October 16, 1988 in Greensboro, NC.

I WAS THERE TOO!!! My first P concert! My last was Musicology in Raleigh in '04.

The first and, thus far, only show I've seen was in Melbourne in 2003.

I was still clueless about aftershows at that point and found out afterwards (one, the following day and another years later) that he'd played two aftershows whilst in Melbourne, both of which were within 1 block of my apartment building...

It's ok. I'll be ready next time!

First-ONA in New Orleans,LA

Last-Musicology in Biloxi,MS

ONA blew my mind. I loved that show.I loved how Prince was so spiritual/political yet soooo funky.

Musicology was good but who the hell has'nt at least seen a dvd of the hits live. I enjoyed the more in the moment ONA the most.

Purple Rain Tour. Feb ?1985 New Orleans Superdome. Amazing show. I was 16. The Dome was FULL. 70,000 plus! Last Musicology 2004.
