(She paid for everything and       used her car as well).        To me Prince was meh.         We were in the nosebleed section as well, could barely see the stage, the       sound bounced all around and so distorted I couldn't even make out the       lyrics, Connie (in her late 30s early 40s) was acting like she was seeing the       Beatles in 1964, etc.        Joe       --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5        * Origin: Fidonet Since 1991 www.doccyber.org bbs.docsplace.org (1:135/392)       SEEN-BY: 1/120 123 10/0 1 14/0 15/0 18/0 19/36 80/1 90/1 102/401 103/1       SEEN-BY: 103/705 105/81 106/201 116/18 116 120/302 340 123/0 25 40       SEEN-BY: 123/115 126 131 150 160 180 190 200 257 755 124/5016 129/305       SEEN-BY: 135/300 366 371 379 382 383 384 385 388 390 391 392 153/757       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/10 203/0 218/0 1 109 410 700 720 802 810 840       SEEN-BY: 218/850 860 870 880 220/70 221/0 6 222/2 226/17 30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 428 452 664 700 230/150 152 240/1120 2100 5138       SEEN-BY: 240/5234 5411 5824 5832 5853 249/206 307 317 400 250/1 261/38       SEEN-BY: 261/100 1466 266/512 267/155 800 275/100 280/464 5003 282/1038       SEEN-BY: 282/1056 291/100 111 292/854 299/6 300/4 301/1 310/31 317/3       SEEN-BY: 320/119 219 322/757 340/400 1000 341/66 342/200 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 633/280 640/1321 712/848 770/1 100 330 340 772/210 220 230       SEEN-BY: 801/161 189 2452/250 2454/119 3634/0 12 15 24 27 50 5020/1042       PATH: 135/392 300 3634/12 261/38 218/700 840 770/1 280/464 240/5832       PATH: 229/426           |
