So...concert lasts 5 hours yet some loser on twitter, apparently from a radio station in Michigan, is complaining about false advertising and wanting their money back because John Mayer and Christin Aguilera weren't there.

Pshhhhhh! I was just thinking what a much better concert it turned out to be with their absence...

Indeed!

Ana Moura, shame on you! How could you forget the words? lol:)

Must have been quite an emotional tribute. Watched a bit of the livestream, reallypoor quality, that guy doing Do Me Baby sounded good!

Ana Moura did a livestream:

Hearing the melancholy of the Portuguese guitar and Ana's sentiment on a Prince tribute... there are no words.

Not sure what Mayte was thinking here...pretty tasteless if you ask me. https://www.facebook.com/...mp;theater Princess Like This Page · 2 hrs · Maya and I had a very special sticker made for tonight's show. Designed by @matlockandco 👸🏽👸🏼☔️💜🇺🇸🐈 #dontgrabit #loveit #likePrincewoulddo #vote

Something is seriously wrong with her and I suspect we are now seeing the real side of her personality.

Sorry, i don't follow. I realize it's some sort of dig at Donald Trump, but what's it got to do with Mayte???

I can't believe this was not being filmed for release? How is it for greiving fans when we cannot see it? Sure some have kindly uploaded on YT & Facebook some clips (big thank you for that) but it is not the same as seeing something professionaly filmed (I am thinking how wonderful the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert was when released) - all this is so backwards.......

not sure if you will be able to see, but I made my short unclear videos from the concert public. I'm sure you will find plenty online and on Youtube. It was a 4 hour long concert, with purple confetti falling at the end, and the real Prince singing Purple Rain, for the encore.

What an incredible group of musicians. Prince knew how to pick them. You definitely can see Prince's influence and work ethic in these musicians that performed with him.

According to Dr. Funkenbery he found someone who was willing to film it for free. Londell never got in touch with the people. I would not be surprised to see him out of the picture in November.

I understand some of you have great contempt for Mayte and like to put her in a bad light whenever possible, but if you read carefully you'd see that this has absolutely nothing to do with her. This is from the group 'Princess''s Facebook, which is Maya Rudolph's Prince tribute band. Blame Maya and her bandmates for this, not Mayte.

My bad. I thought it said Mayte. Thanks for the correction.

Eh everybody makes mistakes so really no big deal.

-

I myself think Mayte has said and done a few questionable things, but generally I like her and think she's a decent person with a good heart, but I respect others' differing opinion and Im not out to change anybody's mind about her. But I guess I'm feeling a bit protective of her today and tired of the seeming desire by some to pin anything 'bad' on her as quickly as possible. At last night's tribute show, during her performance, some loser threw a water bottle at her. DURING HER PERFORMANCE. I think that's low and shitty, I don't care how much someone dislikes her. Have some class and respect for another human being at least.

-

So, sorry if I came across snippy. I suppose I am snippy today. Last night's show has got me missing Prince more than ever and I'm just so so tired of all the ugliness and hostility swirling around since his passing.

-

Peace rogifan.

So many threads, I'm trying to scan through

But have any of them (not the Time) done songs from their time with Prince or non 80s music?

On the few streams that I saw, it sure looks like it was being professionally filmed. There were overhead cameras and cameramen on stage. I think that article in the StarTrib might have been mistaken.

It could have been I mean how hard is it to film a concert?

There was plenty of NPG 90's era material. But each performer's focus was on Prince's songs, not protogee material. Mr Hayes was musical director.

Sexy MF, Cream, Gett Off, TMBGITW, Diamonds & Pearls... lots of others.

Mayte performed a belly dance w/a sword balanced on her head as intro to "7". I forget the female lead vocalist but the chorus was sung using Prince's recording. Was a huge sing along in the stadium.

Tony M was prominently featured on Gett Off and Sexy MF.

3RDEYEGIRL acts got some time too... Liv Warfield performed unexpected/wow and rocked the house. Shelby took lead on Pretzelbodylogic and Donna was great on guitar. Ida was a real treat, too. Mono Neon's solos were amazing... and bittersweet. Never got to see him in a real lineup.

There were multiple Procams shooting - the footage was on the overhead.

Yep exactly what I'm looking for my Prince memorabilia tied up with this election.

That was the one downside to watching on Periscope-most of the time the stream was fuzzy and it was hard to make out details. Or, in two cases, the good-hearted Periscopers tried to get the big screen and the stage in at the same time and cut off people's heads on the big screen so that all you could see were the lower bodies.
