At the O2 Arena, London.

 

Totally amazing. The guy is a total genius, and puts on a really great show. He played {censored}loads of hits as you can imagine, plus ripped out some killer guitar... aswell as showcasing his piano chops :eek:

Incredible show, would love to see him again, one of the best live shows I've ever seen, probably in the top 2 or 3. :thu: I don't know what else to say other than if you haven't seen him live, you really really should. The guy totally rocks.

 

By the way, he had purple tolexed Mesa cabs :cool:

Prince is the most complete "performer" I've ever seen. My music tastes run from Country through Rockabilly into Blues, so it's not really about his musical content... but Prince rates as the best show I've ever seen.

Don't go see him for his music (though his funk stuff is awesome), go see him to learn what it is to be an incredible entertainer, and performer. He really twisted my head around about what it is to go out and play for people, to work the crowd, and entertain them, not just play guitar at them. I don't try to dance or sing like him, but his show really is on a totally different level than almost anything else I've seen.

Prince Rogers Nelson - him and I could sign something the same - P. Nelson.


:thu:

I'm only 6 steps away from being Prince.
:D



:lol:

Prince owns mother{censored}ers. There is a reason why I have his entire discography (though admittedly a lot of it is hit or miss).

His first two records have some awesome fuzz solos.
