    🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😱☺️😊😎😉👌😁 Prince had 50,000 purple roses in a net at the top of the ceiling & at a certain point when he hit a certain note or pedal on the the stage that controls his guitar sounds it would drop the Rose's down to the crowd & someone in the crowd threw a purple rose back at him on stage😱😱😱😱😎😉👌😁

    Yes !!!!! Prince is all that !!!! He is something that this world has never seen or experienced.........and as phenomenal as he was on vinyl, he bought the house down with his live performances....once u attend a Prince concert, you will never ever be the same, for you will experience something so rare, so wonderful that u feel such a rush of love and gratitude that u find yourself thanking God and sweet baby Jesus, for being alive in this moment, 4 being in the right place at the right time.....the first time I went to a Prince concert was in "1982 thru "2011" for a total of 8 concerts but it feels like it may have been 9, but it's all good, because I got to witness the brilliance of Prince. You definitely got your money's worth and then some because Prince Rogers Nelson came to slay! So happy to accompany you, Just Jammin on this journey of discovering the artistry of "His Royal Badness!!!!

    I saw Prince perform in 2011, he was 52 at the time (but looked no older than 38) and he was still performing his ASS OFF like he had something to prove! That's what blew me away the most. This man had proved how great he was decades before and was still putting on incredible performances that went on for 3 hours +! Incredible!

  • @johnneils9084

    This tour was the one I got to see him and he was booked for six nights in a row at the Cow Palace in South San Francisco(tickets:$17.50) and i believe it was the last night and it was packed(12,000 seat capacity) a friend had bought me a ticket...Amazing! His energy was nonstop! I miss his presence in the music industry, but obviously he could not stay here with the physical pain he must've been living with for years. He would jump off a speaker at least 6 feet off the ground , in platform shoes, landing in the splits! FOR YEARS...that guitar is wailing, like painfully. Crazy. Purple tears. Sheila E was with him on that tour and she was amazing...The Glamorous Life...Live.

    Hey you know what’s funny, a lot of people didn’t know how good Prince was on guitar until they saw him perform While My Guitar Gently Weeps… they obviously had not seen this concert!

  • @theteleisewilliamsexperience

    Most ppl don't know Prince hated this tour and began 2 hate the song Purple Rain because he said it was an Albatros hanging around his neck and it kept ppl from appreciating his musicianship. Many concerts after this he wouldn't perform it. In Hindsight he was right because ppl call him the Purple Rain singer as if his career stopped in 84. Those who don't request his newer music do him a great disservice because he has such an amazing catalog

      He was a true honest artist. Always on the move forward
      I saw him many times live.
      And his late-night/early-morning aftershows was always so good, interesting and alive.
      There he could play music and have fun. Not be a superstar that only plays the same old hits. But jam as a musician. That's what he wanted most of all
      And you could feel he enjoyed it so much, even though he'd been playing and working all day and it was 3 AM
      Musical hunger and passion

    The studio version was already good, but Prince is like "nah I can make it 20 minutes long and do it better". I just can't believe he would do this at every single concert on the Purple Rain tour, and knowing him no two versions of this song were exactly the same.

    It's really unfortunate that someone who likes him so much never got to see him live. For the artist you like, try to see them when you can. You never know what will happen. I learned that lesson from when I missed Nina Simone. One of my biggest musical regrets was deciding to go to Montreal instead of seeing her show when she started touring the US again. She died soon after and I never got a chance!!!

    Awe man, this is one concert that I regret missing. I remember when it came out on VHS, I didn’t even own a VCR but I would rent it from the video store over and over again and watch it at my friends house. He thought I was crazy for watching it as often as I did. I have to say on another note, the original VHS version looked so much better than the digitized version and in my opinion sounded better, apparently it didn’t transfer to digital media very well.

    I got to see Prince twice and both times were incredible. The first time I saw him walk onstage I was only about 10 ft away from him and lemme tell you, I'm a grown man but I couldn't breathe when he stepped in front of me. The energy coming off him, u could feel it. He put on such a show and I must have looked like I was really enjoying myself, he tossed me his guitar pick. I've had it for 27 years 😎🎶

    I haven't watched your vid yet, BUT this was the first concert I ever went to. I was 14, a week before my 15th birthday and I saw it in Syracuse NY, 3/30/85. You better give Prince props. Not only judging him on this tour but also his guitar solo, playing with others, 'while my guitar gently weeps' by George Harrison. He stole that show with his incredible solo. Prince was one of the few true musicians of his time. He controlled every aspect of his albums, down to playing the instruments. His amazing music was all due to him. 100! I love MJ and others from the 80s, but Prince was the best. What hurts the most is I was a teen in the 80s. I drank, whatever teens do. Prince didn't, no drugs, no alcohol, he was firm. but as the years went by with his dancing, his hips went out he started pain meds to get through his shows and that's what killed him. Those fucking pain meds. The world lost an AMAZING and supremely talented musician that day. All because of those opiates.
    That's funny, just started watching and I hear you say Syracuse, totally wrong, but that's ok. that's my first ever concert. You got it mostly right, but the cu in Syracuse has a q sound so like syraquse.

    Love the tee...the Hohner he was playing in the beginning is a classic guitar as well (and my fave). I remember when this concert came out on VHS...wore it out! A friend transferred it to DVD for me, but I still have that old VHS.
    Also, he was saying "He (The Lord) said it's gone be alright...He said it's gone be alright."
    Loving your Prince journey.

    The first guitar that Prince played here was a cheap mail order number which he liked so much that he continued playing it until his dying day.
    The second guitar he plays here was a custom order 3K. number which was specially made for him by a local luthier. It's the same one he uses in the movie. Sadly Prince completely destroyed that one a year after this was filmed at the very show of the "Parade" tour.
    But even for those who don't know anything about guitars, the difference in sound is obvious. That 3000 dollar one sounds way better.
