Prince Concert tour 2004

I was able to get 6th row seats for the Jam of the Year tour but it turned out even better. It was the year my vision began to fade but I was still able to see several feet in front of me but my peripheral vision was fading fast. I had my cane or else I could not get around but I also had a sighted guide with me.

The guards allowed me to stand at the front down in front of the stage where I could actually see him perform throughout the concert. He probably never remembers because of so many concerts but.. during the show he looked directly into my eyes, smiled, and tilted his head forward as if to say hello.

That was the best night of my life. I waited over 16 years to see this man in concert then when he finally came nearby, I was losing my sight. Thanks to his security and the security of the theater, my dream came true in more ways than one. I could hear the concert, I could see Prince on stage, and I was closer than anyone else as I was alone except for the guards right at the stage, and he looked right at me while singing then gave me the nod of hello and that bright sexy smile.

I will never forget the memory of that night even when I am in total darkness. I still retain some vision now but it is nowhere near what I had back then. It's more a few inches of sight rather than several feet. My peripheral is nearly gone completely. So, for giving me the night of my life, I am thankful... The music was great, his performance was slamming, and the night was magical!
