When was the first time u seen Prince in concert?

When was the first time u seen Prince in concert and what was that experience like 4 u? My first time seeing him was Last year in Montreal At the Molson Centre.I went with my brother Djemale and his girlfriend.It was such an amazing experience 4 me.I always dreamed of it but never thought it would come true.When he sang "PurpleRain" i cried cause that song always reminds me of my father who passed away when i was little.cry His voice is truly amazing! worship

1997 - Jam of the Year Tour - Nashville, TN at the then Nashville Arena now dubbed the GEC (Gaylord Entertainment Center).

and I also attended the after-party at the Music City Mix Factory. This is also the the same night and place that Prince met Larry Graham if I am not mistaken.

my first time was in Boston for the Jam Of The Year Tour at the Fleet Center. unfortunately we were sooo far away from the stage but it was all good. we also did the aftershow at The Roxy where he played a few months before for the Love 4 One Another tour and where The Time play whenever they play Boston. i saw them twice there.
but i do have to say that ONA tour was sooo much better.

my first Prince concert was at the LA sports areana in '88, Lovesexy! i was way to far, the second to the last row at the very top of the arena, but i had a blast. i also had some binoculars, that only worked on one side. LOL the guys behind me also spilled some beer down my back. i had heard some rumblings about an after party from the various people around me as my sis-in-law walked around, but alas! i was only 15. wasn't going to happen. smile

My nine year old says: My first time I saw Prince was in Vegas (this past December at the Aladdin). It was cool! I liked it. I had lots of fun seeing him for the first time because I listen to all his songs and I've heard my mom say that he is great. "Maceo blow your horn!"

My first Prince show also happened to be my first concert ever. It was June 7th 1986 in Detroit at Cobo Hall. HIT N RUN plus it was his b-day. Just a phenomenal show all around.(The revolution, with eric leeds and atlanta bliss, andre cymone, sheila e., mazarati opened up) Just killer. i look back on it now and damn the man was just turning 28 and he looks the same now!

My first ever concert was in 1993 at gothenburg, Sweden. I wasn't able to see him in Australia, but it was pure luck that I was visiting relos in sweden at the time.
