And the rumour is that Gwen Stefani is sat night (get a check up with the funk doc). Mint are amazing! Perfectly compliment Prince. Man i wish i could make one of these shows. I got london though so it's all good. LA is experiencing history right now!

Yes. I went to the show in Columbia, SC and they screwed Mint big time.

Makes me wonder if it was home cooking for John Blackwell. lol

Mint Condition DID open for Prince in NYC on December 29th, 2010.

Here's a clip from them performing their new single "Caught My Eye" at the NYC show.

Stokley let loose at the end!

I wouldn't say they killed it. They were solid though. They had a short set, under 30min. Stokely was doin' it though.

Makes me wish that they didn't have the technical issues in Columbia when I saw them.... Still haven't quite gotten over that. smile

Glad it was a great set.

Makes me wonder if they are getting a pretty penny for opening for Prince and

enjoying the exposure or else why the hell would they sign up for such a short

set.

I have seen some reviews from unhappy concertgoers citing disappointment that they "played rock and roll". I remember reading some folks saying that they did not like the way songs like Pretty Brown Eyes were played in "rock style" and that Stokley was on drums too long. I think some people expect to go to the show and hear the cds verbatim.
