Prince: Sign o' the Times ‘Gig-Like’ Screening
Advertisement
Prince’s 1987 summer tour hit Europe with a blaze of glory.
In front of a crowd at the Rotterdam Music Hall, Prince and his band perform 13 numbers, 11 of which are from his double album, “Sign ‘o’ the Times,” and all but “Now’s the Time” are his compositions. This is high energy stuff, with neon signs flashing above the stage, suggesting the honky-tonk district of a big city. Between a few of the numbers, there are vignettes of street life. Three women – Sheila E, Boni Boyer, and Cat – provide rhythmic, vocal, and physical pyrotechnics. Sheena Easton appears in a film within a film, her rock video “U Got the Look.” In constant motion, never far from center stage, is Prince, Minnesota’s charismatic pixy.
Paris’ Le Martin called the show “Two hours of torrid perfection”. Holland’s Trouw said the Prince performance “beats everything hitherto shown on the pop stage”. And Germany’s Abendzeitung dubbed Prince “the rock Mozart.”
You Choose Prices: £9.25 / £7.75 / £6.25 (includes £1.25 booking fee per transaction)
Film starts at 7pm, running time is 85 mins.
