Last night at the (Celebrate Brooklyn) Maceo Parker show at the Prospect Park Bandshell...guests who stuck around til the end got a treat when Prince took the stage. Brooklyn Vegan was there, and reports on the show. Above is a clip of Maceo Parker with Price, from what we can tell - it's from a few years back (the two have played together many times).
Prince also played GMA at Bryant Park this morning and will be playing Butter tonight. Details:
"catch Prince & The NPG per4m in a very intimate little spot called Butter in NYC....Space is VERY limited in this joint so there will only be a small amount of tickets made available. And we are making these tickets available 2 the NPGMC so we can be sure members are there 2 keep the vibe tight......We will be selling the tickets online in the BACKSTAGE PASS room at 12 noon ET, June 16th 4 $121.03 each. There will be a ONE TICKET LIMIT. Space is very limited so no guest tickets this time. U have 2 b a member if u want 2 have this much fun. Get ur ticket and join us at Butter - 415 Lafayette St, NYC , Friday, June 16th. Doors open at 11:30pm. 21 & Over."
Good luck getting tickets! We're not members, apparently.
