Members hoerni Posted November 14, 2005 Members Share Posted November 14, 2005 Originally posted by delorean the man is a genius. canigetawitness? Amen! We saw him twice last year while he was out on tour. Bought the tickets for the first time and won the second set on the radio. Since my daughter was only six month's we didn't want to leave her with a sitter, so she came both times. She loved the acoustic set in the middle. The whole performance both times was incredible. His set was perfect. Covered almost all of the hits (not Darling Nikki of course since he's clean now), did a couple of covers and even snuck in some "sampling" for the musicians (i.e his crazy guitar solo that included bits of Eruption and some serious Floyd work, and a bass duet with Rondo on parts of Stanley Clarke's Loopsy Lu) I only wish he released a DVD of that tour.

No, it's one of Prince's actual cloud guitars. http://www.smithsonianlegacies.si.edu/objectdescription.cfm?ID=126 I was in the back rooms of the Smithsonian...

Members GPD Posted November 14, 2005 Members Share Posted November 14, 2005 Challenge him!!! Oh, right.....the thread. Yes, Prince kicks ass. Case in point: The first song played at the wedding reception will be "Let's go Crazy." Dearly beloved We are gathered here today 2 get through this thing called life Electric word life It means forever and that's a mighty long time But I'm here 2 tell u There's something else The afterworld A world of never ending happiness U can always see the sun, day or night So when u call up that shrink in Beverly Hills U know the one - Dr Everything'll Be Alright Instead of asking him how much of your time is left Ask him how much of your mind, baby 'Cuz in this life Things are much harder than in the afterworld In this life You're on your own And if de-elevator tries 2 bring u down Go crazy - punch a higher floor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I've never been a big Prince fan, but everytime I catch a live performance of his on TV, I am always mesmorized... he truly is a song writing genius and outstanding guitarist... especially for being able to be such a show-man at the same time. Anyone notice too how he doesn't seem to age at all... and not in a freaky Michael Jackson kinda way... but like... he seriously just doesn't grow old. devi- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
