    I grew up listening to Prince and had the honor to go see him in San Diego. That was one of the best nights of my life. I invited my sister and we enjoyed the show from the 5th row since that's all it was available. I paid $400 per ticket, worth every penny.

    It was such a joy to watch Prince converse with the people he felt most comfortable with. Because then his true personality would shine through. There were no shades, his body language wasn't rigid he was just relaxed and quite funny. I miss him so much.

      Well said .... I 100% echo your words .... and loved the way Prince gave insight as to how many artists get financially scr*wed by the immoral contract structures.
      Keep up the good work "The Prince Encyclopedia" ..... you're fine people !

I have see so many 🌟 in concert. Although the other stars were great. No one even came close to Prince. He was so damn amazing 💓. Very Powerful man. Prince was by far the greatest performer ever. I. So happy that I has opportunity to meet him. God Bless this soul. There would never be another Prince

    He was such a bad ass guitar player and a lot of people didn’t even know it. So many people thought that his instruments were played by other people especially in the beginning it took people a long time to figure out that 👎 He played them all! 27 everything was always him. I have loved him since I was in 5th grade. Seen him 4 times. Awesome performance!

    I see a lot of comments of how people are surprised that Prince was so such a sense of humor. When you see purple rain you can tell he had a sense of humor especially the part when he has the girl jump into like Minitonka 😂😂😀
