Unfortunately, this was my last Prince concert. Oct.12, 1997, Irvine CA. The only time that a Prince concert was actually close to where I was living at the time. I loved it. I guess one thing that makes this tour special is that it's the last time he was cussin' live. Face Down was definitely a stand-out. Also it was bootlegged as "Partymix" by Optimum, which is cool; a document of a concert I attended. Really good sound, too.


I saw this show too! Yes, I remember face down being a highlight and was so happy that he played it as I thought it represented his rude boy personality pretty well. It's funny because I had broken up with the girl who got us tickets to see the show. I had just started dating someone new and the old girlfriend caught wind of it. The old girlfriend asked me if I wanted to go with the new girlfriend and she would give me the tickets but I felt guilty and went with the ex instead. As soon as we found our seats and sat down before the show started, she asked me if I was serious about the new girl and I said yes. She immediately got up and walked away about a hundred yards and came back with a few tears in her eyes. Needless to say that kind of colored the show for me. As the show went on though I forgot about the ex and just enjoyed the music. At one point during the latter part of the show, he stopped everything and said I want everyone to turn around. We all did and he pointed up at the moon and said this is why I love doing shows outside, or something to that effect. The moon was full and bright and directly in the middle point of his view so how could he not acknowledge it? It was a great moment and brought us all together. Very much like the one night alone soundchecks. All in all a memorable night.
