I have no idea what the songwriter meant with these lyrics. They're too ambiguous to say for sure what he meant without hearing his explanation.
What I THINK it's about is a tour that was taking place in the beginning of summer. Sounds like he's singing about a show the band played. The tour was a lot of fun, and marked a first big success for the band.
"Sun... never went down at night" sounds like they were up late, playing for a crowd, and having a great time. The crowd encouraging them all the while to keep playing.
As for the Prince and the drummer and fire girls, and why any of them would be trying to keep someone else's guitars in tune, I have not a clue.
