The idea came to him when he attended the Chanel fashion show on October 6. He was so impressed by the splendour of the Nave that he came back the next day for a closer look and spontaneously decided to put on two concerts entitled "All day", at 5:00 pm and "All night" at 10:00 pm.
While backstage work went ahead at full speed, loyal Purple Rain fans snapped up the 11,000 tickets for this outstanding event in just 77 minutes.
Both Prince's sets ─ by natural daylight or night light magnified by the glass roof ─ were high octane throughout.
