Oh yeah. At that one Hotel Ca. show, I met the notorious Vera. I was in line to the hotel venue and she handed me a JW Track. A truly "wtf" moment.

I just stare at 'em and real calmly like say, "Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan. Satan." Seems fair to me.

At the Tamar show in Houston in 2006, I was stationed on the floor, right in front of where Prince was going to be. About an hour before the show, I wanted a drink so I asked the couple next to me to save my spot, and in return I'd buy them a drink. The girl had been very nice, and they asked for a couple glasses of wine, which I gladly returned with.

A little while later the guy - who was much bigger than me - grabbed me and accused me of slipping a mickey in his girl's drink.

Does that count?

Ha that sucks. But Id be damn if I accepted a drink from anyone other than my friends or s.o. Why'd he think you dropped his gf a mickey? Was she acting funny after or did she say something stupid like all of a sudden her wine didn't taste right?

She kept telling me she thought she knew me. I'd never met her before in my life. Then she started hanging on her boyfriend and I guess that wasn't SOP, because that's when he started accusing me of putting a mickey in her drink.

Later, I got onstage and sang "Play That Funky Music White Boy". When it was over, I went to the front of the stage because I wanted to stage dive. I'd never done that and I thought "Wow! Here's my chance!" But when I looked down at my potential landing spot, there was that dude! I knew he'd never catch me and the floor looked awful hard, so I just stood there with my arms spread out like a moron, and then left the stage.

lmao!!!!!!

But hey, you got to get onstage! What a rush that must have been..and Im sure that dude was really hating you even more for having that experience.

At one of the LA Forum shows there was this woman in the VIP section who was trashed off her ass... Glassy eyes, slurred words, her makeup and hair completely messed up -- she looked just terrible. Kept trying to get onstage, but Prince's guards wouldn't let her up... She kept trying anyway... Finally her guards were just like, "NO, Whitney, you can't come up!" and she stumbled back to her table.

happen to me once .. I thought now theres a dedicated pain in the ass i shoulda dumped her head first into the trash can but instead i said ure drinks watered down n sneezed on her .. she left

it's never happened 2 me. i usually let all the hot chicks cut in line. the ugly fuckers can get to fuck, and if they spill a drink on me i'll accidentaly smash my fucking elbow in her motherfucking face and break her nose so it starts bleeding everywhere and she gets tears in her eyes and can't see, then i'll push her over

once you do that, no bitch motherfucker will try and cut in line again

dems da rulez of the prince line. any true fan knows these

in may of this year i went to one of the san jose shows and the 2 teenage girls next to me were drunk, and the one passed out and fell on top of me.

I think every show is gonna have these type of people. We were front row at Studio 54 back in 1999 and this tiny blond white girl made her way somehow. Never mind the dude in a wheelchair who's leg stand was grinding the back of my leg, she just pushed her way between the wheelchair dude and I. I'm sorry but I am not normally rude but we were already packed like cinnamon sticks and I did my time in line hours prior to the show, so I gave her the ol' shove and told her to get on her way! Felt kinda good to do so because homegirl had no regard for the gentlemen in the wheelchair. On a lighter note, a few years later I was in line waiting for tickets at the same club when a very pretty Latina girl walks up to me and offered me money to let her and her boyfriend cut in line. I told them no problem but that they didn't have to pay me. We chatted and I gave them the lowdown on what to expect when it came to a Prince show. It came time to pay and they went before me. As I approached the ticket booth the lady selling tickets informed me that the couple had just paid our way. I looked over as they walked in and they gave me a nod as I motioned a thank you. I was appreciative. klick

that's awesome!!!

... & then after u had a nice drinky poo & got down on a deserted dance floor ...but still , it better not have been u bob coz i'd have 2 hunt u down &

woah ninab i'm allergic to violence, brings me out in bruises. wasn't me promise, my gf at the time would have chopped my goolies off! ow!!!!!!!!!

lol it's weird how vivid the memories of that show still are. definitely one of those "you had to be there" shows.did u pick up the rumour, about 2 a.m. that prince wasn't showing up and that sting was taking his place?? bizarre night!!!

I'm sorry, I like to have my own assigned seat. I like to have room to dance, space to stretch out, sit down if I want to, whatever. If it's a small club show, and I have no choice, then that's what it is. I don't like being smushed by people on the side of me, back of me, front, etc. It can get hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable in general admission shows. Also if the opening act sucks, I can skip that too, come late and go straight to my seat. I don't have to stand for hours waiting for the main show.

If he's only known that I forgot the first line of the song and was literally pooping my pants when Prince began the opening riff, he wouldn't have been so jealous!

But luckily the other guy onstage with me sang the first line and everything came rushing back to me, LOL.

No, he was an African-American guy with dreadlocks. His name is Anthony, but he goes by AntBoogie. He and I became great friends after that night. My son worked for him last summer!

I haven't had the pleasure of going to a prince show yet, so nope. But if someone did try 2 throw a drink at me or push their obnoxious, inconsiderate ass 2 the front, it would be on.
