Sign O' The Times? ONA? 1999? Tell me people.....

Lovesexy... WINNER!

4 sheer spirituality LOVESEXY COOL

ONA tour, tops. Initmate venue, aftershow and soundchecks push it over the top.

I liked the LOVESEXY tour the best actually.

Lovesexy.

from the stash of videos that i have and have seen (as well as the bootleggage i've listened to), it's a 3-way tie between the dirty mind, controversy and 1999 tours.

1993 at Radio City Music Hall.

ONA - Europe & Japan
Gold
Parade
SOTT
Lovesexy

Must have been Lovesexy though I didn´t witness it (only saw the video).

From the tours I have seen: "ONA", just because I was in first row and saw the soundcheck. "Diamonds And Pearls" was fantastic,too, because it was my first Prince-concert.

The best Prince tour is whichever tour is going on at the time

Nope. New Power Soul 1998 was weak. I was very disappointed after that concert. Fortunatly there was a nice aftershow.

For the overall experience/theme: Lovesexy
For the musicianship: ONA

Sign O the Times. (US didn't really have a tour per se, but I saw him perform at The Country Club in the San Fernando Valley after his MTV performance that year, and it was the best show I've ever seen him do.)

Open your eyes!

Lovesexy. It was my first P concert. I wasn't a big fan at the time. I have seen it on VHS and was really amazed at all he DID do. From the car on stage to the Black Album stuff to the Liberace piece...just all of it. Doubt we'll ever see a concert like that again. It ranks up there with one of my favorite concerts.

Second would be the Parade concert on P's B-Day (the full audio for this tour is really good)...i think it's where the anotherloverholeinyohead video came from.

Anyone know why these were never released? THey seem to be created like they were going to be...were they shelved?

Yep I agree. And I thought 1990 Nude Tour was pretty poor. In fact the only Prince tour I've really enjoyed was the D+P concerts ( I didn't make ONA)

Oh my rave, you saw the beginning of the tour leading up to the LA Coliseum w/Rolling Stones. U R Bad Ass...

I liked LoveSexy cuz of the Bambi era hair...I cried like a schoolgirl

Love Purple Rain (Long Beach 85, not Forum 84) for the special peeps who left after the 1st encore (duh) so me and my friend rushed the stage and were right there when he came out in his purple lace w/tails vest and pants and hat. I felt like one of those girls they show when they show Beatles footage, cuz I was cryin' just like that!

Also at the beginning of the show he performed 17 days all behind the curtain YE-AH.

Still would like to find someone who was at Don Kirschner's Rock Concert in '80 (81 or 82)) when P did Party Up and Uptown. That the 1st time I saw the Purple Trench w/Silver thingies. And Uptown kept me up for the 2nd song, which was Party Up and I thought, "OK he might dress weird, but he's COOL" Also cuz I loved Soft n Wet and I Wanna Be Your Lover, so...

Thanks for letting me share!
