Fans were supposed to holster their cell phones during Prince's two sold-out shows in Atlanta last Thursday, exactly one week before he died at age 57. Thank goodness so many did not. Numerous fans have uploaded photos and video clips of the legendary artist's final shows in Atlanta.

FULL COVERAGE: Timeline of Prince's life .. Athens fan shares video of Prince's performance .. Atlanta radio responds .. Social media mourns Prince 

Here's my 4 minute video of the Purple Rain encore from the second show in Atlanta last week - his final performance. Security was tight so I was just trying to get audio, but there are some points where Prince is very clear...especially at 1:10... Sorry for the crappy video but the audio is worth it. The last thing I wanted was to have to delete all of the photos and videos I had, especially now. :) #prince #purplerain
