Description

Prince agrees to perform at the massive Rock in Rio II music festival

Very desirable DS, signed “P. R. Nelson,” three pages, 8.5 x 11, November 20, 1990. Contract between Prince's production company, PRN Productions, and Artplan Empreendimentos e Participações, for Prince to perform at the Rock in Rio II music festival on January 18 and 24, 1991. Signed boldly at the conclusion in black felt tip by Prince. In fine condition. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from REAL. This contract represents Prince's only appearance at the celebrated Brazilian-based music festival. Aired live to 55 countries and more than 500 million spectators, this would prove to be the single largest audience to ever witness a live Prince performance. In contrast, Prince's 2007 Super Bowl appearance would peak at 140 million viewers. Prince played two scintillating sets at Rock in Rio II, delivering a barrage of hits from Purple Rain to Parade to Lovesexy. An historic contract that denotes two of Prince's most important and memorable shows.
