Cheers,

Si.

1 hour 45 tops, and damn, bet those upper level seats seem high !

What? No Little Red Corvette or 1999? How dare he not do those warhorses?

What was 'Crazy' like (The Gnarls Barkley song)? I'm intrigued by that one.

'Rock Lobster' WTF?

Prince was a no-show at the afterparty. Dr John did a set though I'm not sure how many people knew who he was.

Third set-list : Lets go crazy, Take me with U, Guitar, Shhh, Musicology, Pass the peas, Play that funky music, Sexy dancer, I feel for you, Controversy, Wonderful world, Cream, U got the look, If i was your girlfriend, Pink cashmere, Lolita, Black sweat, Kiss, Purple rain
acoustic encores : Little red corvet, Raspberry beret, Sometimes it snows in april
electric encores : Crazy and Nothing compares to you

That damn little Prince is varying a lot.
Have tickets for the 24th. "Mountains" would be great to hear.

Still looking for 3 tickets for the football game England-Germany on Aug 22nd.

What a killer week...

Just curiosity.... to what hour is starting the shows of Prince???

seems to be onstage between 8.30 and 8.45 I believe. I read there was an 11 pm curfew.

Ok, Thanks a lot Gazza, something similar to the Stones shows then..... there´s opening act too??

Theres a variety of opening acts over the 21 nights, I believe.

Dont know who they all are, but Beverley Knight is doing some of them as far as I know. Nikki Costa (4/8), Chaka Khan (31/8 and 1/9), Mya, Grupo Fantasma etc

I'm unaware of who's playing on the 24th and 25th, which are the dates most of us in town for the Stones would be interested in (I'm going on the 24th)

Maybe Nikolai can tell you more as he's more au fait with what Prince is up to than me, but I've read that its expected that a few ex-colloborators will show up at various points during the run - Candy Dulfer,Sheila E, Wendy Melvoin etc.
