I was at the show right after this one. In San Antonio. Yes, the one after he fired Terry and Jimmy. I was close enough to see Prince playing behind the curtain for Vanity 6 and The Time. It was my first concert and it was a full party. It ended up being the first of about 10 Prince concerts all over the world, as a service member. I was indeed blessed 🙏🏽
I was at the concert Vanity 6 and the Time got the crowd warmed up and Prince gave us HEAD I was at his first two in Houston Man when he came out in the Trench with the garters and speedo we went crazy We had seen Parliament with a man in a diaper so it didn't faze us because he was the Truth,a great performer
Don't be mad you guys but I saw this concert I also saw him open for Rick James back in the day. Also one more thing and I guess I'm bragging a little bit. When he came to my home town in the 80's there was a club that was very popular in the city called The Ritz. The DJ was a Cool ass woman by the name of Liz. Me and my girlfriend at the time Carolyn always went every weekend never missed. The best music the best dance floor and the crowds. and always dressed to the 9's. So the time came in the city Everybody was excited cuz Prince, PRINCE !!!!! was coming to town at the Civic Arena. Was the first at the ticket booth waiting forever to get tickets.. So remember Liz ? Well... Liz had something cooked up where because of promos and things like that Prince was supposed to come to the club after the show. !!!😮😮 ( He would do that in certain cities just show up) Well anyway Liz told me that Prince was coming to the Ritz and only a few people knew about it. I looked at her I said don't be playing with me. You are not for real !? She said look are you and Carolyn going to the concert !? I said hell yeah she said make sure that you come directly here after the show because he's going to come here. I Literally could not contain my excitement. You have to understand guys this is in the 80s Prince ruled the land. So we went to the concert at the Civic Arena 1999 tour. DON'T WORRY I WON'T HURT YOU I ONLY WANT YOU TO HAVE SOME FUN😂😂. That was the start.. The show was off the hook. The Civic Arena was packed to the rafters and we had the best seats I'm telling you. Back in those days you dressed up like the person you went to go see. So I was all Princed out, YEA I ADMIT IT, makeup too hahahaha And my girl Carolyn was dressed just like one of the nasty girls.( The lingerie dressed girls VANITY 6 dancing on stage) also the Time was there too Yes Morris Day y'all!!!. The concert was incredible was about 2 hours but we could not wait to get back to the club. It was near my house too!! When the show was over y'all I cannot believe how fast I drove . Remember what I told you there was only a certain amount of people that knew that Prince was going to show up because if she would have told everybody it would have been a mad house. LITERALLY 😂 We got to the club it was always crowded. It was all themed out purple. People just assumed it was done that way because Prince had just had the concert in the city. ( LITTLE DID THEY KNOW) To get to the DJ booth you had to cut a left and go up the stairs. It was a huge VIP section roped off upstairs, all themed out purple as well. And of course it was cordoned off by the purple rope . There were about 25 people upstairs they all knew. Liz came out of the booth let us in. We sat down and chilled for about a half an hour in anticipation. IT SEEMED LIKE HOURS AND HOURS HAHAHA. So we're just sitting and sitting and then In about an hour or so... Suddenly from downstairs you heard this huge roar screams and all, we jumped up and ran over to the balcony and looked over. Looked down and saw his bodyguard I know y'all don't know this but back in the day Prince had a huge, I mean Big dude ... bodyguard his name was Chick. ( Chick Huntsberry RIP brother✝️) Imagine a biker looking dude real big broad shouldered big barrel chested flowing white hair big white beard. Bushy eyebrows Imposing looking no smile. That was Chick. Prince and the band went nowhere without him right there by their side. There were times he would literally pick Prince up and carry him no joke Well he walked in the door first and when everyone saw him, they knew !!!!!oh my gawd. NO LIKE OHHHHH MY GAAAAWD!!!!!!!!!!!! The whole damn band walked in the club came right up the stairs sat in the section around a huge circle setup. No lie y'all Prince sat right beside me and the band all around Bobby z Matt Fink Lisa Wendy Dez or Brown M can't remember, everybody. Like I said before you have to understand Prince ruled the planet during those days. No diss on Michael but Prince was in a whole different stratosphere. I mean the man played everything, to see how he directed his band on stage to come in, when not to come in the cues etc. His leadership on stage his performance on stage that damn guitar work and his piano work his dynamism musicianship all of that. And the way he carried himself that air of mystery like he wouldn't talk to anyone he was all low-key and chill it just made you want him even more. Like he sat right beside me. No he didn't speak to me nothing like that but his thigh was right beside my thigh barely touching . Almost lost mind Hahahaha. My girl was to my right she was tripping man squeezing my arm whispering it's Prince it's Prince. Damn near cut off circulation in my arm 😂😂😂 I was sitting there being cool. FACADE!!! Cuz on the inside I was like a little girl squealing. I'm surprised I didn't pee on myself. Facts..! That seems like a century ago now. I was a Prince fan from his very first album, always told my friends about him before he became famous they're like who the hell is that. Like I said y'all I saw him open for Rick James, he blew him off the stage by the way. I'll Never forget that .. trench coat and some stockings hahaha But then like the old saying every true story ends in death ... I think a part of all of us died and went dark inside when he passed. One of those moments when you stop you can't believe it and you struggle to catch your breath. We've all read the stories and I've done some research and looked into it and thought to myself if only there was somebody there that could have cared for him , protected him fought for him, ( when he was struggling with this and couldn't fight for himself) loved him to have helped him through the struggle he would still be here. When he passed out on that plane during his piano and microphone tour that was the warning then. Somehow he didn't have the strength or support Somebody to stand in the gap grab him up and love him back to life That cryptic thing that he said don't waste your prayers on me yet. Death was near... So sad and Fkdup😢 Then barely a short time after he was gone. I cried you cried we all cried from the deepest part of us for him. There was something magic and special and blessed somewhat visceral powerful passionate intelligent persuasive loving engaging seductive Inspiring about what came out of him to us. We still feel it. Especially if we were there during his time. Miss him still... Do me a favor There's a song I want y'all to look up it's a very simple song you probably don't know it.

Yeah he definitely sat beside me I'll never forget that. Also my cool 16 year old friend I'm so glad you listened to " Free" Isn't it the coolest thing you ever heard. Remember the song "Sometimes it snows in April" There's a verse in it that says Those kind of cars don't pass you everyday. Well that's Prince. I'm glad you guys especially the young ones are really starting to appreciate what he was. For me it's very painful to even look sometimes because he was truly the soundtrack of my life. He was the soundtrack in so many ways of all of our lives. Thanks for letting me share my story y'all. I'm glad I could. When I look back on it now I'm like damn did that really happen,!? I wish he was still here I really really do😢
Thank you for sharing your AMAZING EXPERIENCE MEETING OUR BELOVED PRINCE!! I will always adore him!! 💔❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜 I seen Prince during his Purple Rain Tour as a teenager!! He was a supernatural, magical, mesmerizing talent blessed by God!! Absolutely love him in a spiritual way, as a brother!! Omg!! I’m a Lyme disease survivor and been through more physical suffering than I ever thought I could possibly endure!! God blessed me with an absolutely BEAUTIFUL DREAM WITH PRINCE!! It felt soooo real omg!! I actually felt his warm, kind HUG!! He was wearing the amazing outfit when he sang Purple Rain in the amazing movie!! I journaled the dream so I will never forget every beautiful detail of Prince showing me kindness and compassion like a brother does. I sadly lost my only sibling, my amazing brother Steve 💔He was my best friend always. I pray my brother Steve is playing GUITAR WITH PRINCE!! I LOVE YOU DEAR STEVE AND DEAR PRINCE!! Missing you both with a broken heart 💔🥲 Love, always and forever, Anita 🙏💔❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜💜🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💜💜💜❤️❤️
Totally agree! I was looking hard to see what Dr. Fink and Lisa Coleman were playing. I think she was playing an Oberheim OBXa and a Yamaha Electric Grand piano. Dr. Fink had an Oberheim and probably a Minimoog somewhere. Bobby Z was playing those Simmons drums triggering a Linn Drum machine. I was at this show. Man, one of the best concerts I've seen in my life!
I would have absolutely died watching this concert live in person if I was there as an adult back in the day but I ALWAYS dreamed about seeing him live on this Tour even after Purple Rain came out when I was a little boy. So much that I thought that 1999 was a better album than Purple Rain.
You’re right 1999 was a better album and these concerts were amazing. My first time seeing him was in 1979. Purple Rain album is not in my top three Prince albums.
I miss him so much…🙏🏻 I still cry when I think of him… He was an incredible musician! I hope you are resting in Eternal Peace Prince…❤️❤️🙏🏻💐 You are SO MISSED!😢😢
In '82 A H.S friend asked me if I wanted to go this show when it hit its NYC leg of the tour at Radio City Music Hall. I never heard of Prince at the time. He and his band looked too zesty for me from his Album cover. My friend was a little on the zesty side himself so I took a pass on the show. Shortly after this tour he became the phenom that we now know. I didn't believe my friends in attendance stories of his performing with a brass bed on stage. This video affirms my friends story and my foolishness of literally judging a book by its cover. One of the biggest regrets of a lifetime. But I did attend 4 or his tours after. Thanks for posting this and allowing me to see what I missed out on 4 decades ago! RIP King Prince!
It’s okay, we all have our missed opportunities. I saw the Purple Rain tour - then had tickets to Lovesexy but was a poor college student and didn’t have the train money to get home. No mobile phones back then and I couldn’t get in touch with my mom to ask her to western Union some money. It still pains me that I missed that concert. At least you got to see him several times. And I completely understand… to use your word “zesty” … I thought the same as a kid when I saw his Controversy album cover in a record store, I was like, “Who the heck is this guy?… although I found it mesmerizing yet too nervous to buy it” haha 🤣 Upcoming I have a post coming where I briefly talk about that. Thanks 4 the great comment, I appreciate full comments. 🕊️☮️ Oh… and my mom took my Lovesexy tickets and went with my grandmother - too funny 😂… at least they didn’t go to waste.
@@duane.PrinceDMSR Good thing they didn't go to waste. That your mom and grand went was hilarious. But ,Your story is a little more heartbreaking because you knew who and what you were missing out on. When I missed the 1999 tour it was about a year later that he blew up, so there was a delay in my realizing the impact of my earlier decision. When I told my friends that I loved Purple Rain movie when I saw it in '84, they mocked me about bailing on the concert. They all reminded me that they saw ALL of the performers live that participated in the movie. (Exception being Appolonia who subbed for Vanity) After that movie , pre-Ticketmaster days, you couldn't get tickets to his NYC shows for years. Then he went dark on NYC for close to a decade when he was in that contract dispute with Warner. Fortunately I got a ticket to his return to NYC, a one-night show in '98 at Madison Square Garden. Its actually immortalized in a Concourse display at the Arena. They immortalize historical greatest events that happened at MSG over the full 365 calendar. That show was one of them. An over 3hr dance party that featured opening solo set performances by the great Larry Graham and the incomparable Chaka Khan. Each playing for about 45 minutes before Prince hit the stage. Best concert of my life! I thanked the Prince Bootleg Channel for digging up that actual concert last year. I later went to his Musicology and Welcome 2 America tour. Sorry for babbling but I miss the little Purple genius. RIP!
The further his career went the more polished he became and he eventually reached perfection but trust he had to go through some changes starting with the sound man.This was a good performance but i saw him at his best and i feel so blessed to witness his progression from start to finish.He is by far the best all around musician that i've had the pleasure to see and may he always RIP and his music continue to live forever!!!!!!
I am so blown away ay this concert. i was young and media was not like it is today. We were lucky to catch him on Soul train. Prince was so ahead of his time. this was before Purple Rain. The boy was so bad. RIP to the great one. Blessings.
The DVD was included in the Supreme Deluxe Edition of 1999. Unfortunately, I think the Estate has stopped selling it but maybe you can find it second hand. Thank u 4 viewing. 🕊️☮️
I was at the show the night before this one. He did not preform, he came out and talk to us. I can prove it because I did not think it was him because he looked like a little white girl until he spoke. I was 15 years old then I was like. Oh yea, it's him!!! I have already posted this.
But good point, prove it, because there only things you would know about Prince for even meeting him him for a brief moment. In 1997, I saw him twice, the second time he called me onto the stage. He kept his eyes on me the whole time before that!!! I will tell the rest in another post. I had something that PRINCE DIDN'T HAVE ANYMORE IN THE YEAR OF 1997. I LOVE PRINCE AND HE IS THE REASON I WANTED THAT AND HE KNEW IT!!!!

🏁❤️✌️🌹☝️💎💋❤️ YESS!! YEAHH!! Here it is!! This is the one! On the 1! I can tell you this, ..EVERYONE- that was there - was Lucky! This is the most memorable, to me. Besides that its 1 of the BESTEST!! TY for upload!!❤
I WAS 20YRS OLD, & COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL, ALL OVER THE PLACE WHEN IT CAME 2 MUSIC, WIT A BASEMENT FULL OF INSTRUMENT'S, TAUGHT MYSELF EVERYTHING I WANTED 2 LEARN, EVEN TAUGHT SOME OF MY FRIEND'S HOW 2 PLAY THE INSTRUMENT'S OF THEIR CHOICE, I LOVE MY GOD WIT NO END N SIGHT, I STARTED OFF WIT JAZZ, (MY DAD) & MY MOM WAS COUNYRY & CLASSICAL, THE REST IS HISTORY.3
I've seen PRINCE 3 times in my life time too!!! THAT'S GREAT, THE 3RD TIIME, HE SAW ME TOO!!! I HAVE POSTED ABOUT IT. MY LONG PIMP OUT HAIR LIKE HE HAD HIS HAIR FROM, "I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER," LOOK!!! I HAD FUN!!!!
Thank you sooo much for posting this amazing concert!! I ADORE PRINCE!! I’m so grateful to see this!! We miss you and love you Prince!! Always and forever!! Xoxo 🙏❤️❤️❤️💋💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🌹🌹🌹
I was there. 14 years old. Lower left Mezzanine off the floor. I could see everything including Prince, Jam, Lewis, Lisa,and Jill Jones playing behind a curtain for Vanity 6.
This tour came to Toledo Ohio in February 1983. I HAD to go with my sister. I was only 11, I had no idea what I was witnessing until a year later when Purple Rain dropped. RIP. I miss you Sis!
I know, why not everybody else say they where there. AND, WHY NOT EVERYBODY ELSE SAY THAT THEY WERE ON STAGE WITH PRINCE!!! HE STARTED LATER IN HIS CAREER CALLING A FEW FANS ON STAGE, LIKE HE DID ME AND ABOUT 10 OTHERS IN DALLAS TX 1997! I WAS AT THE SHOW IN SHREVEPORT LA 1982, THE NIGHT BEFORE THIS ONE IN HOUSTON. I WAS 15 YEARS OLD. I GUESS THE PEOPLE LIKE US ARE BUSY WITH LIFE AND DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THESE VIDEOS , BECAUSE I WANT TO HEAR OTHER PEOPLE'S STORIES ABOUT BEING ON STAGE WITH HIM. I ACTUALLY MISSED MY CHANCE, BECAUSE I WAS TOO SHY AT FIRST AND PRINCE WOULD NOT GIVE ME A SECOND CHANCE TO COME UP THERE. THAT'S OK, AT LEAST HE PICKED ME AND HE ACKNOWLEDGED ME BECAUSE I HAD LONG BEAUTIFUL HAIR LIKE HE USE TO HAVE BACK IN THE ,"I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER DAYS!!!! I LOVE PRINCE, FOREVER !!!
The band as a whole were so talented. They took songs to a higher level. Funky pop rock. This period of time was the best for music. Mixing styles with ease.
Yet another remaster where I actually HEAR BrownMark slay on the bass. IN the other case was the 1985 Syracuse concert. Up until the most recent remaster of that iconic concert, I'd NEVER heard BrownMark kick ass on bass. Not on the original VHS release, nor the first remaster (when the anniversary edition of the Purple Rain soundtrack with the DVD a few years ago) seemed to showcase what a damn good bassist BrownMark is. However, the newest remaster on Blu-Ray..holy squick. They really brought out the big guns (sonic-wise). Then, there's this video. Loved being able to see BrownMark jam, and hear him so clearly. Thank you from those of us who didn't get the 1999 remaster set this is from.
I noticed the same thing in the Syracuse remaster. I was like “Mark is killing that bass” I wonder why they kind of mixed him out of the original release.
My first Prince show was April 8, 1983, Joe Louis Arena, Detroit. I sat in the upper bowl, 26th row. The Time and Vanity 6 opened. I was 13 years old and I remember it like it was yesterday.
@belafontejames667 Easy way to stay sane, in a world where insanity runs ramped. BIBLE STUDY. 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Souls, come to CHRIST and: be healed, be guided, be saved, be protected.
This was my 2nd Prince show. Just WOW!! Every time I pass by Joel Osteen's church with someone new in the car, I say, "I saw Prince play there several times!"
I was there in front row third row with my ex wife back then. She was in chock couldn't believe I got those tickets in front. Loved it when Apollonia and Shena Easton and Shelia E. came out all together 💜💜💜 awesome concert!! RIP!! Prince Rogers Nelson!!🙏✝️🙏
40:09-40:21 Thx 4 postin.I Knew there was"somthin" 2 learn here,but I didn't kno what until this segment.The 1999 Album was very influential on my development and I was able to trace it to how Prince programmed his Hi-Hats.I have the exact-same sound on," Lil Miss Payback"(Ev9 Topic)and " Brew Doo Lady".
Despite achieving considerably more commercial success with the Purple Rain Album released in 1984, the body of work that Prince produced through 1978-1982 was by far his best work in my humble opinion . . . The lyrics conjured up imaginative and euphoric visuals. 🤩 The music also felt raw especially in comparison to the “lush arrangements” he incorporated into later productions. However, the musicianship was always on point from start to finish throughout his entire legendary career. Rest In Glorious Peace! 😔
I saw him one month later in Detroit. Vanity 6, The Time, Then this incredible Master walked on the stage. This is Greatness!! Listen to him around 27:00, doing How come you don't call me anymore, just WOW.
It’s crazy that I was 5 when this concert came out and maybe 12 yrs old when I was staring at his album in the record store wanting to hear it and thinking how amazingly beautiful Prince was on the cover!
Guessing you got locked in on the Diamonds & Pearls CD that was about 7 years later. My experience is the same but opposite direction. The previous album, Controversy, I saw it on display for weeks after school in a record store and his look was so different for the time - it mesmerized me. Didn’t buy it (broke child) but when 1999 came out my mom bought it for my birthday. I was hooked. Thanks 4 the view and comment. 🕊️☮️
The "1999" Tour i attended this tour in San Diego, Ca 1983 .....First concert at the tender age of 16 Prince mania was taking off and what a time to be young...
To the uploader of this vid, first of all…thank you for this! Secondly…did The Time perform on this bill, and if so, do you have a video of that? I’ve found a couple vids of them from this tour but the video quality is nowhere near this good.
I saw the Purple Rain tour but missed this tour. But from what I can see he was better during this tour. And that’s saying something because the Purple Rain tour was awesome!!
🎄🎹🎸🟣🎙️ HELLO EVERYONE! MERRY XMAS 🎁, C.L. community 🟣🎸 WE THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK , GIVE IT UP PURPLE ARMY 💪, THIS UPLOADS IS THE BOMB 🎙️🎄👋 OKAY C.L. IT'S ALL YOURS! LET JAM😂 FROM DALLAS TX JAIME TREVINO RADIO U TUBE PREMIUM 🎬🎙️🎄👋
Fortunate enough to experience the Indianapolis, IN (Market Square Arena) tour stop.. (11/20/82) at the ripe age of 11 yo with my older sister. Life changing experience to say the least! I remember it vividly, front row seats in front of Susan (V6), Terry Lewis (Time), and Brown Mark.
You always hear people compare Prince to guys like Jimi Hendrix and James Brown, but you can't deny as much as he was in a stratosphere all his own, you can see the influence of early performers like Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, and even Liberace. This man was amazing and on a whole level above all the others
One of AP’s fav shows Prince did. He knew all of the moves for this show, all of the choreo. He was Portland’s best DJ & a big fan. Now deceased sadly.

I was there stage right. He yanked the necklace off his belly it flew over my head.. Girl behind me caught it.. Great performance, start to finish.
LOVE PRINCE. SAW THIS CONCERT 1982. HOUSTON
Yes!!! I never sat down..even on the salads! 😂
"BALLADS "
I was there flew in from Detroit stopped and got some bbq and straight to the concert 💜💜💜😎🤘🔥🖤 I'm playing bass right now because of that man
When saw this concert as teenagers. I knew this man was something special 💜💜💜🔥🔥🔥
I was at the show right after this one. In San Antonio. Yes, the one after he fired Terry and Jimmy. I was close enough to see Prince playing behind the curtain for Vanity 6 and The Time. It was my first concert and it was a full party. It ended up being the first of about 10 Prince concerts all over the world, as a service member. I was indeed blessed 🙏🏽
Wow that’s amazing and you should be proud to have witnessed that!!!! ✊🏾🥁
I always heard that story of him playing bass behind curtains on that show.
It must have been strange
for you to see him having to do that.
I think I'm Terry offspring
• Ticket price: $15.65
• Vanity 6 opened and The Time also performed!! hot, danggg!
I was at the concert
Vanity 6 and the Time got the crowd warmed up and Prince gave us HEAD
I was at his first two in Houston
Man when he came out in the Trench with the garters and speedo we went crazy
We had seen Parliament with a man in a diaper so it didn't faze us because he was the Truth,a great performer
Yes!
He fucked me up 😅
I'd pay $600 for that line up in 2024. just to see and hear them one more time
I seen this tour! Good old days.
Best era of Prince by far
This is the era of Prince that made me a Prince lover
Agreed, Purple Rain hit right after this. Good Times 💜
The “Revolution” in my opinion was his best band. The energy level and musicianship were high level and made an awesome party atmosphere. Love them❤
Absolute agree
Agree 🙌🏾💜
The Sign Of The Band was his best
Prince's peak of success was during the Purple Rain era. The music and the film set him over the top during the mid 80's.
Amen!
This is my favorite line up 😂😂🤘🤘💜💜💜😎
Don't be mad you guys but I saw this concert I also saw him open for Rick James back in the day.
Also one more thing and I guess I'm bragging a little bit.
When he came to my home town in the 80's there was a club that was very popular in the city called The Ritz.
The DJ was a Cool ass woman by the name of Liz. Me and my girlfriend at the time Carolyn always went every weekend never missed. The best music the best dance floor and the crowds. and always dressed to the 9's.
So the time came in the city Everybody was excited cuz Prince, PRINCE !!!!! was coming to town at the Civic Arena.
Was the first at the ticket booth waiting forever to get tickets..
So remember Liz ? Well...
Liz had something cooked up where because of promos and things like that Prince was supposed to come to the club after the show. !!!😮😮 ( He would do that in certain cities just show up)
Well anyway Liz told me that Prince was coming to the Ritz and only a few people knew about it.
I looked at her I said don't be playing with me. You are not for real !?
She said look are you and Carolyn going to the concert !? I said hell yeah she said make sure that you come directly here after the show because he's going to come here. I Literally could not contain my excitement. You have to understand guys this is in the 80s Prince ruled the land.
So we went to the concert at the Civic Arena 1999 tour.
DON'T WORRY I WON'T HURT YOU I ONLY WANT YOU TO HAVE SOME FUN😂😂. That was the start..
The show was off the hook. The Civic Arena was packed to the rafters and we had the best seats I'm telling you. Back in those days you dressed up like the person you went to go see.
So I was all Princed out, YEA I ADMIT IT, makeup too hahahaha
And my girl Carolyn was dressed just like one of the nasty girls.( The lingerie dressed girls VANITY 6 dancing on stage) also the Time was there too Yes Morris Day y'all!!!.
The concert was incredible was about 2 hours but we could not wait to get back to the club. It was near my house too!!
When the show was over y'all I cannot believe how fast I drove .
Remember what I told you there was only a certain amount of people that knew that Prince was going to show up because if she would have told everybody it would have been a mad house. LITERALLY 😂
We got to the club it was always crowded. It was all themed out purple.
People just assumed it was done that way because Prince had just had the concert in the city.
( LITTLE DID THEY KNOW)
To get to the DJ booth you had to cut a left and go up the stairs. It was a huge VIP section roped off upstairs, all themed out purple as well.
And of course it was cordoned off by the purple rope .
There were about 25 people upstairs they all knew. Liz came out of the booth let us in.
We sat down and chilled for about a half an hour in anticipation.
IT SEEMED LIKE HOURS AND HOURS HAHAHA. So we're just sitting and sitting and then
In about an hour or so...
Suddenly from downstairs you heard this huge roar screams and all, we jumped up and ran over to the balcony and looked over.
Looked down and saw his bodyguard
I know y'all don't know this but back in the day Prince had a huge, I mean Big dude ... bodyguard his name was Chick.
( Chick Huntsberry RIP brother✝️)
Imagine a biker looking dude real big broad shouldered big barrel chested flowing white hair big white beard. Bushy eyebrows
Imposing looking no smile. That was Chick. Prince and the band went nowhere without him right there by their side. There were times he would literally pick Prince up and carry him no joke
Well he walked in the door first and when everyone saw him, they knew !!!!!oh my gawd. NO LIKE OHHHHH MY GAAAAWD!!!!!!!!!!!!
The whole damn band walked in the club came right up the stairs sat in the section around a huge circle setup.
No lie y'all Prince sat right beside me and the band all around Bobby z Matt Fink Lisa Wendy Dez or Brown M can't remember, everybody. Like I said before you have to understand Prince ruled the planet during those days.
No diss on Michael but Prince was in a whole different stratosphere. I mean the man played everything, to see how he directed his band on stage to come in, when not to come in the cues etc.
His leadership on stage his performance on stage that damn guitar work and his piano work
his dynamism musicianship all of that. And the way he carried himself that air of mystery like he wouldn't talk to anyone he was all low-key and chill it just made you want him even more.
Like he sat right beside me. No he didn't speak to me nothing like that but his thigh was right beside my thigh barely touching . Almost lost mind Hahahaha. My girl was to my right she was tripping man squeezing my arm whispering it's Prince it's Prince.
Damn near cut off circulation in my arm 😂😂😂
I was sitting there being cool. FACADE!!!
Cuz on the inside I was like a little girl squealing. I'm surprised I didn't pee on myself. Facts..!
That seems like a century ago now.
I was a Prince fan from his very first album, always told my friends about him before he became famous they're like who the hell is that.
Like I said y'all I saw him open for Rick James, he blew him off the stage by the way. I'll Never forget that .. trench coat and some stockings hahaha
But then like the old saying every true story ends in death ...
I think a part of all of us died and went dark inside when he passed.
One of those moments when you stop
you can't believe it and you struggle to catch your breath.
We've all read the stories and I've done some research and looked into it and thought to myself if only there was somebody there that could have cared for him , protected him fought for him, ( when he was struggling with this and couldn't fight for himself)
loved him to have helped him through the struggle he would still be here.
When he passed out on that plane during his piano and microphone tour that was the warning then.
Somehow he didn't have the strength or support
Somebody to stand in the gap grab him up and love him back to life
That cryptic thing that he said don't waste your prayers on me yet. Death was near... So sad and Fkdup😢
Then barely a short time after he was gone.
I cried you cried we all cried from the deepest part of us for him.
There was something magic and special and blessed somewhat visceral powerful passionate intelligent persuasive loving engaging seductive
Inspiring about what came out of him to us. We still feel it. Especially if we were there during his time.
Miss him still...
Do me a favor
There's a song I want y'all to look up it's a very simple song you probably don't know it.
But please look the song up and listen to the lyrics it will touch your very soul.
It's simply called
" FREE"
This simple yet beautiful and haunting Melody personifies everything that he was.
Let me know what y'all think .
Love you Prince Rogers Nelson.
Always did always will.
May u Live 2 C the Dawn
You had quite the experience and lasting memories. That’s awesome 👏🏽!!
🕊️☮️
Prince sat next to you? 🤯 lucky doesn't even start to describe you! 💜
I love this. Comment so much!! I’m just 16 but I love free haha :) :)
Yeah he definitely sat beside me I'll never forget that.
Also my cool 16 year old friend I'm so glad you listened to " Free"
Isn't it the coolest thing you ever heard.
Remember the song "Sometimes it snows in April"
There's a verse in it that says
Those kind of cars don't pass you everyday.
Well that's Prince.
I'm glad you guys especially the young ones are really starting to appreciate what he was. For me it's very painful to even look sometimes because he was truly the soundtrack of my life. He was the soundtrack in so many ways of all of our lives.
Thanks for letting me share my story y'all. I'm glad I could.
When I look back on it now I'm like damn did that really happen,!?
I wish he was still here I really really do😢
Thank you for sharing your AMAZING EXPERIENCE MEETING OUR BELOVED PRINCE!! I will always adore him!! 💔❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜
I seen Prince during his Purple Rain Tour as a teenager!! He was a supernatural, magical, mesmerizing talent blessed by God!! Absolutely love him in a spiritual way, as a brother!! Omg!! I’m a Lyme disease survivor and been through more physical suffering than I ever thought I could possibly endure!! God blessed me with an absolutely BEAUTIFUL DREAM WITH PRINCE!! It felt soooo real omg!! I actually felt his warm, kind HUG!! He was wearing the amazing outfit when he sang Purple Rain in the amazing movie!! I journaled the dream so I will never forget every beautiful detail of Prince showing me kindness and compassion like a brother does. I sadly lost my only sibling, my amazing brother Steve 💔He was my best friend always. I pray my brother Steve is playing GUITAR WITH PRINCE!! I LOVE YOU DEAR STEVE AND DEAR PRINCE!! Missing you both with a broken heart 💔🥲
Love, always and forever, Anita 🙏💔❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜💜🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💜💜💜❤️❤️
WOW... the way those analog keyboards sounded back then!!!!!
Agreed! Lisa’s intermission song is fucking beautiful sounding
Totally agree! I was looking hard to see what Dr. Fink and Lisa Coleman were playing. I think she was playing an Oberheim OBXa and a Yamaha Electric Grand piano. Dr. Fink had an Oberheim and probably a Minimoog somewhere. Bobby Z was playing those Simmons drums triggering a Linn Drum machine.
I was at this show. Man, one of the best concerts I've seen in my life!
I would have absolutely died watching this concert live in person if I was there as an adult back in the day but I ALWAYS dreamed about seeing him live on this Tour even after Purple Rain came out when I was a little boy. So much that I thought that 1999 was a better album than Purple Rain.
You’re right 1999 was a better album and these concerts were amazing. My first time seeing him was in 1979. Purple Rain album is not in my top three Prince albums.
What are your top 3? 1999 and?

Saw this live!
I never got to see Prince live in concert …
and I still hate it to this day !!!😔
THANK YOU DON'T. EVER STOP THE MUSIC. THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY. THE MUSIC. NOBODY IS GETTING IT❤❤❤😊
So glad we still have footage of him.😢
To share with the newer generations.
Extraordinary and Lisa ,Jill Jones wonderful concert
Wow, this is great.... greatness. EPIC Prince. Thank u so much for posting !❤❤❤❤
I miss him so much…🙏🏻 I still cry when I think of him…
He was an incredible musician!
I hope you are resting in Eternal Peace Prince…❤️❤️🙏🏻💐
You are SO MISSED!😢😢
In '82 A H.S friend asked me if I wanted to go this show when it hit its NYC leg of the tour at Radio City Music Hall. I never heard of Prince at the time. He and his band looked too zesty for me from his Album cover. My friend was a little on the zesty side himself so I took a pass on the show. Shortly after this tour he became the phenom that we now know. I didn't believe my friends in attendance stories of his performing with a brass bed on stage. This video affirms my friends story and my foolishness of literally judging a book by its cover. One of the biggest regrets of a lifetime. But I did attend 4 or his tours after. Thanks for posting this and allowing me to see what I missed out on 4 decades ago! RIP King Prince!
It’s okay, we all have our missed opportunities. I saw the Purple Rain tour - then had tickets to Lovesexy but was a poor college student and didn’t have the train money to get home. No mobile phones back then and I couldn’t get in touch with my mom to ask her to western Union some money. It still pains me that I missed that concert. At least you got to see him several times. And I completely understand… to use your word “zesty” … I thought the same as a kid when I saw his Controversy album cover in a record store, I was like, “Who the heck is this guy?… although I found it mesmerizing yet too nervous to buy it” haha 🤣 Upcoming I have a post coming where I briefly talk about that. Thanks 4 the great comment, I appreciate full comments.
🕊️☮️
Oh… and my mom took my Lovesexy tickets and went with my grandmother - too funny 😂… at least they didn’t go to waste.
@@duane.PrinceDMSR Good thing they didn't go to waste. That your mom and grand went was hilarious. But ,Your story is a little more heartbreaking because you knew who and what you were missing out on. When I missed the 1999 tour it was about a year later that he blew up, so there was a delay in my realizing the impact of my earlier decision. When I told my friends that I loved Purple Rain movie when I saw it in '84, they mocked me about bailing on the concert. They all reminded me that they saw ALL of the performers live that participated in the movie. (Exception being Appolonia who subbed for Vanity) After that movie , pre-Ticketmaster days, you couldn't get tickets to his NYC shows for years. Then he went dark on NYC for close to a decade when he was in that contract dispute with Warner. Fortunately I got a ticket to his return to NYC, a one-night show in '98 at Madison Square Garden. Its actually immortalized in a Concourse display at the Arena. They immortalize historical greatest events that happened at MSG over the full 365 calendar. That show was one of them. An over 3hr dance party that featured opening solo set performances by the great Larry Graham and the incomparable Chaka Khan. Each playing for about 45 minutes before Prince hit the stage. Best concert of my life! I thanked the Prince Bootleg Channel for digging up that actual concert last year. I later went to his Musicology and Welcome 2 America tour. Sorry for babbling but I miss the little Purple genius. RIP!
@@duane.PrinceDMSR😂😂😂awesome story!
@@brucesmith1754Such a cool story! We all miss the Artist!!! 😢
The further his career went the more polished he became and he eventually reached perfection but trust he had to go through some changes starting with the sound man.This was a good performance but i saw him at his best and i feel so blessed to witness his progression from start to finish.He is by far the best all around musician that i've had the pleasure to see and may he always RIP and his music continue to live forever!!!!!!
I am so blown away ay this concert. i was young and media was not like it is today. We were lucky to catch him on Soul train. Prince was so ahead of his time. this was before Purple Rain. The boy was so bad. RIP to the great one. Blessings.
Amazing! This is a rare video. My room was transported back to the wonderful 80's.
The DVD was included in the Supreme Deluxe Edition of 1999. Unfortunately, I think the Estate has stopped selling it but maybe you can find it second hand. Thank u 4 viewing.
🕊️☮️
One of the best tours ever!
LUV it sweetie pie Prince great concert 💋💜💋💜🙏🎱🎱🍷🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 happy world Prince day Prince sweetie pie forever luv YA 💜💜💜💜💜 💜💜💜💜💜💋💋💜
Wonderful Prince forever !!!!!
I WAS THERE!!!
Me too
I was at the show the night before this one. He did not preform, he came out and talk to us. I can prove it because I did not think it was him because he looked like a little white girl until he spoke. I was 15 years old then I was like. Oh yea, it's him!!! I have already posted this.
But good point, prove it, because there only things you would know about Prince for even meeting him him for a brief moment. In 1997, I saw him twice, the second time he called me onto the stage. He kept his eyes on me the whole time before that!!! I will tell the rest in another post. I had something that PRINCE DIDN'T HAVE ANYMORE IN THE YEAR OF 1997. I LOVE PRINCE AND HE IS THE REASON I WANTED THAT AND HE KNEW IT!!!!

Prince looks like he is having a damn good time on the stage! Fabulous artist and entertainer.
I was at the Oakland, California show!!!! My favorite Prince era!!!! ❤❤❤
DONT. STOP THE MUSIC❤❤❤
The king of all concerts right here.
I think this sounded better than the Purple Rain tour, and this is when he still had Dez Dickerson.
RIP PRINCE. 🙏
Best lineup ever💜💜💜
I attended the 1999 concert in St. Louis, Missouri. The Time and Vanity 6 performed. Awesome concert.
I WAS 20YRS OLD, & COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL, ALL OVER THE PLACE WHEN IT CAME 2 MUSIC, WIT A BASEMENT FULL OF INSTRUMENT'S, TAUGHT MYSELF EVERYTHING I WANTED 2 LEARN, EVEN TAUGHT SOME OF MY FRIEND'S HOW 2 PLAY THE INSTRUMENT'S OF THEIR CHOICE, I LOVE MY GOD WIT NO END N SIGHT, I STARTED OFF WIT JAZZ, (MY DAD) & MY MOM WAS COUNYRY & CLASSICAL, THE REST IS HISTORY.3
Omfg so unspeakably good....phenomenal. Saw the man 3 times in my lifetime.....best artist ever!!!!
You’re so right and lucky 🍀 to have witnessed someone so talented!!!! 😊🥁
I've seen PRINCE 3 times in my life time too!!! THAT'S GREAT, THE 3RD TIIME, HE SAW ME TOO!!! I HAVE POSTED ABOUT IT. MY LONG PIMP OUT HAIR LIKE HE HAD HIS HAIR FROM, "I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER," LOOK!!! I HAD FUN!!!!

My pleasure!! Glad u enjoyed!
🕊️☮️
The 1980s era was my favorite!
Thank You So Much!
You're welcome! 🕊️☮️
I was there. 14 years old. Lower left Mezzanine off the floor. I could see everything including Prince, Jam, Lewis, Lisa,and Jill Jones playing behind a curtain for Vanity 6.
This tour came to Toledo Ohio in February 1983. I HAD to go with my sister. I was only 11, I had no idea what I was witnessing until a year later when Purple Rain dropped. RIP. I miss you Sis!
💜💜💜💜
This tour changed my life 03/29/1983 San Diego Sports Arena
Lol ! I was there also. San Diego sports arena
Thats me in the front row wearing the black t-shirt.
Why not, everybody else said they were there. 😂
Yes, I sometimes smile at the comments - everyone was there and met him at the after party - haha 🤣.
🕊️☮️
I know, why not everybody else say they where there. AND, WHY NOT EVERYBODY ELSE SAY THAT THEY WERE ON STAGE WITH PRINCE!!! HE STARTED LATER IN HIS CAREER CALLING A FEW FANS ON STAGE, LIKE HE DID ME AND ABOUT 10 OTHERS IN DALLAS TX 1997! I WAS AT THE SHOW IN SHREVEPORT LA 1982, THE NIGHT BEFORE THIS ONE IN HOUSTON. I WAS 15 YEARS OLD. I GUESS THE PEOPLE LIKE US ARE BUSY WITH LIFE AND DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THESE VIDEOS , BECAUSE I WANT TO HEAR OTHER PEOPLE'S STORIES ABOUT BEING ON STAGE WITH HIM. I ACTUALLY MISSED MY CHANCE, BECAUSE I WAS TOO SHY AT FIRST AND PRINCE WOULD NOT GIVE ME A SECOND CHANCE TO COME UP THERE. THAT'S OK, AT LEAST HE PICKED ME AND HE ACKNOWLEDGED ME BECAUSE I HAD LONG BEAUTIFUL HAIR LIKE HE USE TO HAVE BACK IN THE ,"I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER DAYS!!!!
I LOVE PRINCE, FOREVER !!!
The band as a whole were so talented. They took songs to a higher level. Funky pop rock. This period of time was the best for music. Mixing styles with ease.
Yet another remaster where I actually HEAR BrownMark slay on the bass. IN the other case was the 1985 Syracuse concert. Up until the most recent remaster of that iconic concert, I'd NEVER heard BrownMark kick ass on bass. Not on the original VHS release, nor the first remaster (when the anniversary edition of the Purple Rain soundtrack with the DVD a few years ago) seemed to showcase what a damn good bassist BrownMark is. However, the newest remaster on Blu-Ray..holy squick. They really brought out the big guns (sonic-wise). Then, there's this video. Loved being able to see BrownMark jam, and hear him so clearly. Thank you from those of us who didn't get the 1999 remaster set this is from.
I noticed the same thing in the Syracuse remaster. I was like “Mark is killing that bass” I wonder why they kind of mixed him out of the original release.
I just got out of the time machine. ..this was Badddddd concert yes indeed. .P forever ..June 7 prince day💜💜💜💜
My first Prince show was April 8, 1983, Joe Louis Arena, Detroit. I sat in the upper bowl, 26th row. The Time and Vanity 6 opened. I was 13 years old and I remember it like it was yesterday.
I remember paying 23 dollars to see that concert💜💜💜💜
Great memories ❤❤❤ I was 13 years old back then. Definitely miss.
Bloomington was the best show hands down
@belafontejames667 Easy way to stay sane, in a world where insanity runs ramped. BIBLE STUDY.
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Souls, come to CHRIST and:
be healed,
be guided,
be saved,
be protected.
Saw this tour at the Capital Center near D.C. and it was insane. The Time and Vanity 6 opened for him. Now that was a wild funky night.
Excellent Concert!
How could he? A PRINCE and A King at the same daxxm time!
Remarkable!
Saw him perform here in Champaign Illinois on April 10,2004. But show I’d ever seen in my entire life!!!! Love Him!!!!!
i luv PRINCE!!!!
&
MISS HIM!!!!
all the GREATs leave us way to early
💜💜💜💜
Amazing!!!
Extra-ordinary Artist .. never again
💜what a fat sound💜whoohoooo🙌last one "Head"🔥
This is where Bobby Z started triggering the Linn LM-1 with the Simmons SDS-V drum pads on this tour! 💯💯💜💜
❤
This was my 2nd Prince show. Just WOW!! Every time I pass by Joel Osteen's church with someone new in the car, I say, "I saw Prince play there several times!"
That is Awesome History and Knowledge about PRINCE!!!
How come u don’t call me should have been on the 1999 album 💜💜💜💜💜⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was there in front row third row with my ex wife back then. She was in chock couldn't believe I got those tickets in front. Loved it when Apollonia and Shena Easton and Shelia E. came out all together 💜💜💜 awesome concert!! RIP!! Prince Rogers Nelson!!🙏✝️🙏
i want more full concerts,,,,the time and vanity6....love this concert
wonderful - love so much - PRINCE - and his people
Love Prince
40:09-40:21 Thx 4 postin.I Knew there was"somthin" 2 learn here,but I didn't kno what until this segment.The 1999 Album was very influential on my development and I was able to trace it to how Prince programmed his Hi-Hats.I have the exact-same sound on," Lil Miss Payback"(Ev9 Topic)and " Brew Doo Lady".
Despite achieving considerably more commercial success with the Purple Rain Album released in 1984,
the body of work that Prince produced through 1978-1982 was by far his best work in my humble opinion . . .
The lyrics conjured up imaginative and euphoric visuals. 🤩
The music also felt raw especially in comparison to the “lush arrangements” he incorporated into later productions.
However, the musicianship was always on point from start to finish throughout his entire legendary career.
Rest In Glorious Peace! 😔
💜
I saw him the very beginning,i remember this tour.He never let me down out of all the times i’ve him.
This was just before filming of Purple Rain began which subsequently catapulted Prince And The Revolution to stratospheric heghts.
Not really, Purple Rain started filming on 1st November 83, almost a year later
Jep! :D Thanks! Anna,Christine,Tinja&Markku 🌹
Would loved to have been there‼️‼️🙌🏿🙌🏿💜💜💜💜
I saw him one month later in Detroit. Vanity 6, The Time, Then this incredible Master walked on the stage. This is Greatness!! Listen to him around 27:00, doing How come you don't call me anymore, just WOW.
I know!!!
The tickets were 23 dollars. Cobo Hall came alive.
Who does their opening number entirely in silhouette? My GAWD! ICONIC!!
He did things differently and no one ever will come close… as you said ICONIC!
🕊️☮️
It’s crazy that I was 5 when this concert came out and maybe 12 yrs old when I was staring at his album in the record store wanting to hear it and thinking how amazingly beautiful Prince was on the cover!
Guessing you got locked in on the Diamonds & Pearls CD that was about 7 years later. My experience is the same but opposite direction. The previous album, Controversy, I saw it on display for weeks after school in a record store and his look was so different for the time - it mesmerized me. Didn’t buy it (broke child) but when 1999 came out my mom bought it for my birthday. I was hooked. Thanks 4 the view and comment.
🕊️☮️
LOVe this _ The revolution made it complete. I was 2 young this time but I wish I was there, 💜💜💜💜
I attended the New Orleans show! Thanks for the upload!
The fact that he only played songs from 1999 and controversy album and not his 1st 3 albums says alot.
Omg ...this is so beautiful I wish I was there. I still miss prince ..💜💜💜💜 June 7th Prince day
The "1999" Tour i attended this tour in San Diego, Ca 1983 .....First concert at the tender age of 16 Prince mania was taking off and what a time to be young...
Opened with Controversy!
Awesome memories.
Divine in magic move in music. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Prince … arguably one of the best guitarist of all time. I place him at the same level as Eddie VanHalen, Randy Rhoads, and other great guitarists.
Prince was more versatile than Eddie.
To the uploader of this vid, first of all…thank you for this! Secondly…did The Time perform on this bill, and if so, do you have a video of that? I’ve found a couple vids of them from this tour but the video quality is nowhere near this good.
I saw the Purple Rain tour but missed this tour. But from what I can see he was better during this tour. And that’s saying something because the Purple Rain tour was awesome!!
Detroit was the number one show his second home
🎄🎹🎸🟣🎙️ HELLO EVERYONE! MERRY XMAS 🎁, C.L. community 🟣🎸 WE THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK , GIVE IT UP PURPLE ARMY 💪, THIS UPLOADS IS THE BOMB 🎙️🎄👋 OKAY C.L. IT'S ALL YOURS! LET JAM😂 FROM DALLAS TX JAIME TREVINO RADIO U TUBE PREMIUM 🎬🎙️🎄👋
Loved Lisa's solo and those creamy synths.
That synth interlude that starts at the 21:28 mark in this video is just...gorgeous!
Lisa Coleman is gorgeous
I’ve seen PRINCE 3 times
WOW!
Fortunate enough to experience the Indianapolis, IN (Market Square Arena) tour stop.. (11/20/82) at the ripe age of 11 yo with my older sister. Life changing experience to say the least! I remember it vividly, front row seats in front of Susan (V6), Terry Lewis (Time), and Brown Mark.
I missed this.. i was able to attend 1981's Controversy Tour
Prince szuper music better✌👍🙏🎸🎤🎹🎶
You always hear people compare Prince to guys like Jimi Hendrix and James Brown, but you can't deny as much as he was in a stratosphere all his own, you can see the influence of early performers like Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, and even Liberace.
This man was amazing and on a whole level above all the others
Best of his bands ever real tight and aggressive
I was at the Providence Rhode Island show in early 1983!
1992 270 min live new power generation zenith concert and man💪😎💪😎simply the besttttt
Madrid biplaza de las ventas con María redios zenithhhhhhh
One of AP’s fav shows Prince did. He knew all of the moves for this show, all of the choreo. He was Portland’s best DJ & a big fan. Now deceased sadly.
