    I was able to attend and it was AMAZING! Prince is still the BEST and the band is the best. Does anyone else think Shelby is totally unlikeable. She can sing but she needs to take it down about 10 notches. Thanks Prince!

    only a select few people in MPLS have the fun ;)…the announcement was super secret and tix sold out too fast to involve many people. also….prince’s last album hasn’t even been released in the U.S. Wonder if the free U.K. didn’t get reviews he wanted?

    Wow, the people in Minneapolis have all the fun! Looking forward to your Spreecast Doc, ’cause all things considered–I’m not convinced Hannah is 3rdeyegirl..just saying.

    In March 1986 I lined up with hundreds of others in front of First Ave on just a rumor that Prince would play. We got in for a 3 dollar cover charge (I kid you not!) and watched a 2.5 hour show. Amazing show. That is my gold standard for concerts ever since. I think I paid more for drinks than admission.

    Wow sold out! well I’m happy 4 him. I’m in too much pain anyway ): I guess I wont be able to get out n have any Fun until I get the surgery to feel good in my skin again. Speaking of skin or skins is there a drummer audition r not?? She’s awesome I was just wondering, I also love Meytal Cohen more rock but she’s hot! I want to be it so bad, but alas I only have rudimentary skills thus far, plus like i said I have to heal thy self first.

    If by some miracle u do what u said and tell the people who have numbers let me/us know bout shows after at Park r somethin we could at least hang and enjoy the music perhaps with a few Advil even dance (:

    How may I get tickets?

    The tickets are all sold out and the Dr.Funkenberry site originally said tickets would go on sale at 11AM – but the Dakota site said 5:50 CST the tickets would go on sale. Now everything is sold-out. There needs to be additional tickets added there was inconsistent information on the Dr. Funkenberry site and what was listed on the Dakota site.

    There is no drummer audition. Hannah’s husband and dad have been trying to link her with Prince on a permanent basis since Hannah met Sheila at KOSA last year. Notice how Third Eyed Girl is spelled different on Hannah’s YouTube video and doesn’t come from the same YouTube account as the others. It’s really sad when you contemplate the underlying factors.

    I think I’m going to have to get over this 30 year addiction to Prince and his music. I can’t afford it anymore. If this were 10 years ago and the NPG Music Club were still in existence, the soundcheck access would be free and the main show would have been $70. I’m glad I’m not in Minneapolis right now, because I would be so depressed!
