Prince Concert: August 17th!

Prince's concert was amazing, I feel so fortunate to be one of the lucky people to have seen it! Seeing him play guitar live is simply mindblowing!

Unfortunately, he didn't show up at the after show and it's really too bad because I was just a few meters from the stage. However, his band made a great jazz performance. Marva King performed a great version of "Tell ME Something Good". Shelby performed "Tears Dry on their Own" and "Crazy". I heard that Maya performed at 2:30 am but I didn't stick around for her performance as I thought that the show was over after the NPG left. Maya was also the support act before the concert started and sang some songs of her new album "Liberation". I'm not a fan of Maya, therefore I don't think that I'll be a good judge of her performance but I saw some fans having a great time.

Well I hope that I'll get another chance one day to see him either in concert or at an after show concert, I can assure you that seeing him once is not enough!

The only problem I encountered during the concert was drunk people. I really encourage to go easy on the drinking when going to any concert, it's not fair on those of us who simply want to enjoy the show. Some people were behaving pretty badly, spilling beer on people and being way too noisy.

It's a good thing that I'm such a huge fan of Prince, because I just ignored all of these people got into the music, danced, sang and enjoyed it to the max!
