oh god I'm totally bringing pumps with me as well, probably won't put my heels on until I get to the pub!

Shboogiebop · 23/06/2016 10:14

I did think of that Tonight as I went to Ascot last week and managed all afternoon in really high heels cos we all wore flats for all the walking there and back, but I want to only bring a little shoulder bag with me that just fits in my phone and money etc so I won't have space for shoes. I'll see how I feel about it on Saturday.

TonightYoureAStar · 23/06/2016 10:52

I'm sure your purple pumps will be funky enough :-) really looking forward to it - DH set off for glasto this morning and looking at the weather I actually think I've got the better deal, though I'd love to go next year...hope Cee-lo does this version of crazy - its one of my absolute favourite live performances I've seen, Prince took the song to a whole new level and looked majestic..

I'm in London now and was shocked to hear about floods in London! 😱 It was hot in the Midlands ☀️

Thought, do I need to bring wellies?? Fortunately it's not so bad now, hope it will be dry Sat night!

Hellooo. Have a lovely time. I'm so sorry I can't make it. The planets didn't line up. I could really do with a night out as well!! I'm thinking purple thoughts for you all. Next time.... XxxSmile

Hope you all have a great time! 💜
Prince Party UK have videos up from last night .

TonightYoureAStar · 26/06/2016 17:47

Loved it! Sore throat and feet today from all the singing and dancing 💅🏻

Destinysdaughter · 26/06/2016 17:51

Was a great night and lovely to meet Tonight and Shboogiebop! I'm sure there will be some stuff on YouTube as lots of pp were filming it.😁

Was it any good though?!

Shboogiebop · 26/06/2016 23:33

Yes I had a great time too and lovely to meet up. Although I did feel like everyone could have sung more Prince songs, rather than their own songs. I think the best thing was being with so many other Prince fans and it was a really mixed bunch, loads of youngsters as well as oldies like me! It was a fab evening!

Shboogiebop · 27/06/2016 00:07

Yet another brilliant performance that I hadnt seen before!

ComputerBlue · 27/06/2016 11:42

Hi all! Smile From what I have seen the BET tributes were all amazing, especially Sheila E and co, fabulous, I find these tributes so sad to watch though, really brings home what a superstar we have lost.

HRHlikeahornyponywould · 27/06/2016 23:43

Did anyone do a prince tribute at Glastonbury?

I read beck did a bit of 1999 but that's it

Shboogiebop · 28/06/2016 22:13

Haven't seen much of the BET tribute yet but this guy is brilliant!

TonightYoureAStar · 29/06/2016 14:59

oh wow Shboogiebop who is he? that was amazing - I've seen them all, and they were all great, looooved Maxwell too, but I think this guy really really took the torch, must check him out Smile

princeismagic · 29/06/2016 16:00

Sheila E was fabulous! Had to watch SOTT afterwards to indulge my Sheila love. Smile

ComputerBlue · 29/06/2016 16:25

Tonight It's Bilal singing Beautiful Ones

TonightYoureAStar · 29/06/2016 16:34

computer listening to his music now, very smooth, I think I could have another crush Blush

buttermymuffins · 30/06/2016 17:37

Fat boy slim did a Prince tribute a Glasto. I'll find a link.

princeismagic · 03/07/2016 08:16

Hey, hope you're all well - thought I would share this article because I found it so fascinating, goes some way to explaining his musical genius - though how he then combined that with his moves, style and poetic lyrics surely makes him one of kind Halo

Shboogiebop · 06/07/2016 17:43

Thanks Tonight, what an interesting article. Funnily enough when I told my Mum that the tribute we went to was for an Autism charity and that Prince had done concerts before for that charity, she asked if Prince was autistic. I said that I wasn't aware that he was but thinking about it, he had loads of traits so I wouldn't be at all surprised. So obsessive about his music and wanting to control everything in his life, it certainly rings bells with me, having a son with Aspergers. The savant thing is fascinating.

TonightYoureAStar · 06/07/2016 18:23

Yeah he was certainly on the spectrum I would say, and I think he was probably aware of it hence he supported autism charities and openly admitted to finding speaking in public difficult, just makes me love him even more, that he must have battled to overcome it at times but still made sure he always performed and shared his talent with us all 💜💜💜💜💜
