Last night I went with my wife to the Edmonton Winspear theater to see the debut of a Tribute to Prince with the Edmonton symphony orchestra.
I am not a huge fan of his music but do appreciate his influence in the industry and his roots in R&B.
I was blown away by the concert!
Mackenzie Green who did vocals was absolutely perfect! and Andrew Gouché who was Prince's last bassists to play with him on tours and in the studio before his passing was also there.
I made a couple of short video recordings on my iphone so once I get them uploaded I will share them here but it was a fantastic night to say the least. Having a full orchestra backing up music like this is amazing.
