I think the tickets were like $85. The venue, pretty intimate, not big at all. While waiting in queue to go in, it was pretty obvious that word had spread that this was the last Prince show at the club. We were offered $1000 each for our tickets, but we'd flown to Vegas to see this show and the tickets were not for sale. I was a fan going in but damn I had no idea what a show this man could give. It's one thing to play his albums. It's an entirely different thing to see him perform live.

You can get an idea here.


Just wow.
