Not trying to make anyone a fan, but of his work, that is one of my favorites, and yes, it is for a very small crowd. The quality didn't drop just because it was a small crowd.
Also, George Thorogood and the Destroyers were a good small crowd band. In their early career they would invite the crowd up on to the stage to dance. After a couple of songs, the musicians couldn't see each other anymore for the rest of the concert.

Throughout the 2000s, Norwood experienced career and commercial turbulence. In 2002, she starred in the reality series Brandy: Special Delivery. Her third and fourth albums, Full Moon (2002) and Afrodisiac (2004), were released to critical success. She served as a judge on the first season of America’s Got Talent before being involved in a widely-publicized car accident in 2006. After several lawsuits stemming from the accident, Norwood’s fifth album Human was released in 2008. In 2010, she returned to television as a contestant on the eleventh season of Dancing with the Stars and starred in the reality series Brandy & Ray J: A Family Business with younger brother Ray J. She began a recurring role on both Drop Dead Diva and The Game in 2011 and released her sixth album, Two Eleven, the following year.

She's a fine girl.
That pic looks fake, but accurate.
Is that Brandy? or Prince?
Maybe the Stones, Paul McCartney, U2, Pink Floyd, Kiss.
But Brandy? I think I've heard of her, but I'm certain she's no Whitney Houston.
And even Whitney, with all her star power couldn't pull 90K spectators.
My blame is placed squarely on the idiot who booked this concert.
Hell, Rod Stewart sells out 15K venues. Easily.
And if 40 people showed up, he'd still sing his heart out and kick soccer balls into the crowd.
Was she paid to do a certain amount of time or number of songs? If she didn’t fulfill her contract somebody needs to get some money back.
A classy human being would have invited the 40 people onto the stage and just had fun.
Maybe she had a top 40 hit in South Africa? Youre right about Rod Stewart, though.
Raspberry Beret, the kind you find in a second hand store!
For some reason I can’t quite understand its one of my all time pop songs.
I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing anything in Prince’s wardrobe, but he is one talented performer.
Every one thought the concert was cancelled but a number of hearty showed up. I think there were no more than 30 people there and Liberace was made aware of the situation.
He calls everyone down to the front rows, laughs and talks to everyone during the concert. Even took requests - did the entire concert for the few people there.
This was when he was a huge star, too. The friend of mine who saw this concert said it was the best he’d ever been to. Had the time of his life.
New Mexico State University, 1970. Most of the cowboys there did not know who B.B. King was. He played his guitar “Lucille” to 150 of us as though we were 10,000 fans. Got to sit in the front row with my feet propped on the stage.
I met Brandy once in an elevator at the Venetian Hotel around 2000, Seemed very friendly and a nice girl.
I like Prince because his songs bring me back to the GREAT times of the mid 80’s.
Toooo funny.
Looking Glass or looking through the bottom of the glass?
It’s sad, but it’s much sadder that Obama still won.
Remember all those “my Dog could beat Obama” comments back in 2012? I do.
But the sailors said she was a fine girl.

Prince is a King.
We are all seriously dating ourselves here.
