I got in to see (the artist formerly known as but is currently once again known as, I think) Prince at The Fillmore. It was a good show, but not full of Prince hits. He came on about 12:45 and the I left around 2 AM. He played "Controversy" and "I Feel For You" a few other songs, but mostly it was long funky jams. I think some folks were hoping to hear some hits, but the 15 to 20 minute jams were pretty tight and ok with me. The band was tight and Prince plays great guitar.



I haven't found a setlist yet, but he left the stage at 2 and I don't know if he came back. Oh wait I did and he did.



If you were lucky enough to buy tickets, you had to pick them up at will call and show ID, so there was a long line to get in, but they moved it along quickly, and there was no chance for scalpers to get any to resell.



Oh and P Diddy was there in the private box, right rear of the 2nd level.



Here is much better review of the show. The songs listed were mostly bits of songs played during a longer funky jam. He played another 50 minutes after I left.



Dang. Oh well.



BTW my favorite line of the night was Prince saying I don't need drugs, I just need the 2 and 4. (beats)
