Prince once again rocked Madison Square Garden last night with the fourth of his Welcome 2 America shows. These exclusive photos landed in our inbox just now – thanks to the purple one for sharing them. Hot, no?
Last night’s openers were ol’ skool band Mint Condition and the funkified Janelle Monae (who also joined Prince on stage for “If I Was Your Girlfriend” during his set). Rolling Stone had this to say about Prince’s high-energy, hit-packed, sold-out show: “Such is the power of Prince: With songs as funky and fresh as that, the party doesn’t ever stop.” (full RS review here).
Were you at the show? Was it as funky as these pics??? -Dr.FB

Posted at 16:42h, 31 DecemberThe show on 12/29/10 at MSG was “off the hook”. Prince blew the MSG audience away, especially with his rendition of “Question of U”. Totally awesome…and then some!!!!!!

Posted at 15:46h, 31 DecemberGreat show indeed. My $50 seats were excellent too! I wonder why “welcome 2 america ” was notplayed. Too realistic for the casual Purple Rain fan I guess?
