Prince Vancouver

“He sang in his raspy midrange and piping falsetto, danced with liquid ease, and played ornate moody guitar solos as though thinking aloud through the instrument.” – The Globe and Mail.

“…continuously wowed for three hours by the undiminished vitality of the man’s stage presence, and indeed of the whole, mesmerizing Prince thing, 30-odd years into his singular and uncompromising career.” – Toronto.com

Tickets are still available and they start at $38 and go up to $246.70 (plus fees, taxes).

I used to mow the lawn to Prince. Once a week all summer, when I was 12 or 13. Both sides of 1999. Can’t imagine what it did to me. Hand cranked down on the throttle. Smell of gasoline thick in the air. Sweating heavily. Feeling my booty start to twitch. Little Red Corvette!
