HELLO TO ALL!

Firstly, I would like to introduce myself, as a new member.

I'm from Australia and a Prince fan, since 1991. I just recently saw Prince's last Sydney concert

- PHENOMINAL!

I'm just wondering if anyone has any information from official sources, about Don Johnson jumping on stage at one of Prince's concerts, back in the 80's?

I've heard stories, but have never seen any articles, pictures etc., relating to the event.

Any information is appreciated.

I used google and within seconds I found this:

Not exactly what wou were looking for, but something that indicates that he might be a fan.

*edit*:

I found something here on prince.org:

Yeah, he did. I think it was the last show of the tour, but it was in Miami.

Johnson walked out either during the encore, or right at the end of the part before the encore. He had a guitar.

According to Johnson, Prince didn't know he was coming onstage and looked at him like "What the *$*% is this?" But he recognized him quickly (Johnson was at the height of his "Miami Vice" popularity at the time) and the jam went off without a hitch.

This is the story I remember reading at the time. The story was told by Don Johnson, and I think it was in the National Enquirer or the Star (so draw your own conclusions, LOL). BUT, the story was all quotes from Johnson himself, and not the usual "a source close to Don Johnson said", so I think it was legit.

NOTE: I just read ludwig's post. Yay, me!

Oh, and welcome to the Org! We're glad to have you!

OMG I used to have a poster of Don Johnson in my garage - he was sooooo fine back in the day. LoL ~ sorry had to share.

Some post a picture of DJ from back there, please if you can. Thanks.

My apologies, I should have mentioned that I had already searched the link to this topic in the .org thread, when I first joined.

I am aware of the Don and Kelly photos and they are a great set of photos!

Thank you for your efforts, ludwig.

Thanks for the lead, RodeSchro!

I will definitely follow up on this and post back in this thread, if I find anything.

Oh, and welcome to the Org! We're glad to have you!

Cheers, for your welcome matey.

Don Johnson was SMOKIN' HOT, back in the day!

Like Prince, he's aged very well over the years.

For you, ScissorsRockPaper:

For a smorgasbord of Don..........

If anyone else has any more leads to official sources, it would be much appreciated!
