Does Prince Still Do $100 surprise night?

I remember reading that Prince use to offer band members during shows every now and again "$100 Surprise Night", where the band member/s who played the best, gave an unexpected surprise, etc, etc were awarded $100 extra for keeping everyone on their toes.

Does Prince still do this?

I think this is a great incentive for giving the crowd the best show possible and was just wondering if they still do it?

I remeber either 'diamond' or 'pearl' saying that prince was often very generous with bonuses. She talked of one time after an aftershow where price came into the room and gave them all $1000 each as a bonus.
