oh and also its part of the show for Prince on occassion to let some one touch/hold the guitar, then the tech will get it back. You think Prince will go around giving out priceless instruments. 
so NO not even for TMZ hype or news Prince doesn't owe you a guitar. don't paint a picture of some spur-of-the-moment deception. It's for pure fun only Lucky, you are Prince is not stupid im sure this was publicity on his part. no coincidence. [Edited 3/27/09 16:11pm] | |

At least it was at the O2.. takumi left a few years ago, brian was the guy at the o2. i wasn't quite sure if it was him on leno or not, presumably it is due to the height, he was backlit on leno and it looks like his hair was different you can tell a proper fan if they know the names of all the security guys and roadies etc !!!!! That's right !  and the opportunity to turn the lyric book | |

Vinniecent said: Linn4days said: The guitar was still plugged-in even though they may have killed the sound.. Noise and possible electric shock? electric shock, from a guitar??? are you dumb? Actually, it's not that difficult to get electrocuted by your guitar. It needs to be physically plugged in with a guitar cable to the amp. The amp's AC polarity needs to be reversed - easy to do on vintage amps without grounded plugs. There has to be a current spike. I learned this all first-hand by using my late '60s Vox Super Beatle without a GFCI. That shit fucking hurt. I think I saw Jesus that night. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

he doesn't owe you a guitar. yes, he gave it to you, and you in turn gave it back. possession is 9/10ths of the law, once he handed it to you, it was yours. if giving it to yo made it yours, giving it up absolved you of any entitlement to it, so there is nothing to owe.
had he handed it to me, they wouldn't have been able to pry it from my grip. this message brought to you by logic. | |

it's not priceless to Prince. it's priceless to us because he touched it, to Prince it's just his and has a price -- what he paid for it. this message brought to you by logic. | |

i missed it...we had tornado warnings all nite..20 seconds into the performance..severe weather update!!!...i was like damiit!!!
Sounds like it was a good time. does anyone know where i can see the performance?...lotusflow3r.com maybe? Peace & Love Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews. | |

Serena said: Geez, a lot of the TMZ comments say that he should've been able to keep it. Maybe TMZ should clarify that it's NEVER given to someone to keep...and change the stupid headline.
Then I don't get what it is given for in the first place. | |

 I posted this on TMZ and I mean this in the nicest possible way. YOU ARE A SCHMUCK!
Prince gave it to you! You should have kept it! At the very least, if you absolutely HAD to give it back because of threats of violence or jail time, you should have refused until you could hand deliver it to the the person who gave it to you! 
DUH!  [Edited 3/27/09 18:23pm] I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |

I was watching Prince's amazing performance  when I saw him walk over to you and give you his guitar, I was like Oh my God he just gave that guy his guitar!!!!  I couldn't believe my eyes!!!!  But then I saw some guy go and get the guitar and then I wasn't so jealous! Sorry to be a such a hater

Congrats!! And pay no attention to the negative comments - they are just jealous.
Also; was it just me or did Prince actually look like he wanted to hand the guitar to the 'real fans' behind the TMZ guys at first. Then he kinda realized that might cause trouble, so he just settled for the two guys in the front. Either way - the performance was great. Thanks for holding the guitar up. The noise it made when you did that was pretty cool too. | |
