Enthusiastic review of Milan gig on the "Arena di Verona" italian mag

Great and competent review of the show! The journalist Giulio Brusati gave the exact tracklist of the show and a very precise description. Highlights:
The show starts with Rainbow children, the song that gives the title to his latest album...but this is not a promotional showcase, so Pop life is next, from the "Around the world in a day"album, a cd that The Beatles would have loved. The stage is filled with pillows, and Prince climbs often over the amplifiers to tease the crowd. The stage is the sanctuary of a man who has decided to fight against the majors and the commercial logics. He invites on stage 4 fans to make them dance with them, and after their awful performance he calls them "The N'SYNC"! Then he puts everything in its place with "Purple rain", singing with maybe too much pathos, maybe to avoid to be overwhelmed by the crowd's chants. He holds a guitar shaped as the symbol he chose in the 90's to flee from his rcord company and shock the world of pop. He says "Do you like radios?Neither do I!" and proposes a new imaginary radio station for all his fans. After Strange relationship he proposes his version of Pass the Peas by the Jb's with the immortal Parker's sax line, and a Whole lotta love with a solo "à la Jimmy Page", including the orgasmic interlude, rich of percussions. This is the best radio station you can imagine. When Sign of the times starts, the place goes wild...Feel free to label Prince: over, relic, madman, a Don Chisciotte...The truth is that on stage nothing can be compared to him!
cheers
Alex

translation for my italian friends

Il concerto inizia con rainbow childrem, brano che da il titolo al suo ultimo album.. ma questo non è uno spettacolo promozionale, e per questo subito esegue pop life, dall'album "Around..", un cd che i Beatles avrebbero amato. i palco è pieno di cuscini, e prince si arrampica sulle casse per incoraggiare la folla. questo palco è il santuario di un uomo che ha deciso di combattere le case discografiche e le logiche di mercato. Princ eivita sul palco quattro fans per farli ballare con lui. e dopo la loro penosa esibizione li rimanda a posto nollandoli come boyband.rimette le cose a posto con purple rain, cantata forse con troppo pathos, forse per non essere coperto dai cori del pubblico.suona una chitarra a forma di simbolo, uguale al nome che si era dato negli anni 90 per fuggire dalla sua casa discografica e scioccare il mondo del pop.
dice:"vi piacciono le radio?no?nemmeno a me" e propone un'emittente immaginaria. Dop ostrange relationship propone una versione dell'immortale pass the peas, con il leggendario fraseggio di sax di Parker, e una whole lotta love "alla Page" compreso l'intermezzo orgiastico, ricco di percussioni. Questa è senza dubbio la migliore radio che possiate immaginare. E quando pare Sign of the times, il palazzetto impazzisce...Siete liberi di etichettare Prince come volete: .finito, relitto, Don Chisciotte...ma la verità è che sul palco nessuno è come lui!

un'altra buona recensione la trovate su:
