1st: Earl's Court - Diamonds and Pearls' tour, first night.

Last: Welcome 2 Australia - Allphones arena, first night.

Last should've been Auckland...fuck.

Actually, last should've been in about 30 or so years from now in a club somewhere here on earth.

Wow. That is impressive. Please share your experience in 1979. I am sure that you already have before, but I would love to hear it. I have a special place in my heart for fans that loved him before 1999.

I agree, I'd love to hear about the experience.

I remember standing back a ways from the stage, and out comes this delicious young man to the stage. He wore his little bikini briefs and thigh highs, his hair was not straightened but kind of a cross between an afro, and not sure what. Anyway I do remember he sang FOR YOU, and SOFT AND WET..Good grief he was so incredibly talented. I knew then that he was going to be a star... We danced so hard.. So in the time I was there, Prince and I made eye contact, (yep, at that time I was cute and Latina, but I was so shy) the only thing I could think of doing was to give him a huge smile. He smiled back and that was that. Since that time I have watched him evolve into the music genius that he is, I have been to so many concerts over the years, never to disappointed.

i became spoiled after seeing him at paisley park the past 2 years. I had a great 15th row seat in atlanta and thought "wow, he's so far away!"

hopefully some kind of parties can continue somewhere in the spirit of paisley? of course there would be some1 physically 'hiding', but still could b magic

I first saw him at my local Regal theater when he broadcasted his Musicology tour show from Staples Center on March 29, 2004. Would've been better live in person, but those of us in the theater here in Portland, OR had a BLAST singing along and dancing in the aisles!

The only time I saw him in person was his last show in Portland - the late show on April 21, 2013 at the Roseland Theater. My sister and I got in line around 9, and thank goodness we did - we got wristbands that got us in front of the barricade, so we were literally touching the stage. I've never danced so hard in my LIFE!

I was hoping to catch him during the Piano & a Microphone tour...
Still, I'm thankful I saw him when I did, and that I was so close to him... I'll cherish that memory for the rest of my life.

My thoughts exactly!

250 even... Wow... They say it's quality not quantity, but with Prince it must have been both!

What was you most memorable Prince show SquirrelMeat?

I'll never forget my first time (l got lucky and got front row) for Prince and the Revolution, but my favourites were (and it can change on mood):

1. Dublin Point 30/03/95. The roof was truly on fire.

2. Shepherds Bush 10/02/2014. Wow, just wow.

3. One Nite Alone 03/10/02 - Personal reasons. Thanks Prince.

Tomorrow, I could list another 3!
