Unfortunately it did not. The very top section was completely empty. The bottom sections look empty in the picture because everybody headed for the exits when the house lights came up but then Prince and the band hit the stage again! Glad we stuck around a little while longer! It filled up again quickly! I wonder if the people who paid for VIP seats were ticked?

Wow. That's amazing.

I always thought Prince didn't allow pics to be taken at shows.

Thanks, tankfully, hankyful, fully thanking Prince, he's so SO! (Can't go w.o. him...) -and I'm a bait joker, erase this.

They tried to enforce it. They confronted one lady in my section. I guess they could tell she was recording video because there was no flash and she was just constantly holding the thing up. I saw lots of people recording video during the last encore. How can you really enforce that unless you collect every cell phone from every ticketholder. That's a losing battle. We were so close at one point it looked like Prince was looking right into some of the cameras and didn't seem to mind. He's getting cooler as he gets older.

Great pic-thanks

No...it was full. This is a picture of the surprise encore. Most people had already left or were on their way out when the band came back. This was the first few seconds of the surprise. Check out the people on the stairs.

Nope, I paid for VIP tix and sat tight. I knew that man would come back out. LOL

I was there, still in my VIP area.

nice picture.

i think people are soooooo worn out by the end of the main concert from dancing, screaming, smiling, jumping, pure amazement, comprehension, clapping, sweating, etc., they'll stand and shout for one, maybe two encores; but after that, the unaware fan just can't hang any more...they are exhausted...its all they can do to make it to their car/transportation, get home, shower and go to bed with a smile on their face and love in their heart. God bless them.

the die-hards can do it all night long!

Prince is truly incredible.

I'm sure this has been discussed- but I don't come here 24/7 - how did you get VIP tix? Thru Prince or ticketmaster? How much were they? thanks for any info

For the price you paid for a VIP ticket I would be there till security had to carry me out at the end.
