If Prince were to do an all rock show... He'd blow the place apart.

If there's one thing I've noticed from him this past year, it's that his strength lies in his guitar playing. I think he still has it in himself to put on a great rock show. No horns or any other bullshit of course. I'd go with a set list like: Let's go Crazy I'm Yours Witness 4 The Prosecution Electric Chair Zannalee Interactive Endorphinemachine The Undertaker Dolphin The Cross Computer Blue Eye Like It There 319 Sister All The Critics Love U In New York Loose! Live 4 Love Chaos and Disorder What's My Name Darling Nikki Joint 2 Joint Calhoun Square The Ride Peach Sign O The Times America Bambi In This Bed I Scream (guitar ending) That would be a dream setlist. I would have to add Whole Lotta Love (he's perfected this cover now, it's so heavy), and One Of Us. Purple Fact #542: Prince can make a Weeble™ fall down. | |

Whole Lotta Love would be cool. Not sure about One of Us though. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

he filled my stomach now with his best horns section, i mean i have seen Eric Leeds, Maceo, Candy and Greg on 1 stage....and i got an album with all piano... now it is time to put out the rock side of P.; so get a rock album out and showcase ur skills on a rock tour with songs like: The Ride, Honky Tonk Woman, Bambi, Zannallee, etc... Prince, did u hear us? I wish he would, and actually take it seriously. I think a tour like this is long overdue.

Hot damn!! Alot of those songs were never performed at any of the DC shows I've attended over the years. Damn good pick of songs, though. | |

My feelings are an exact match to those of EvilWhiteMale's when he says that "(Prince's) strength lies in his guitar playing."

How is "All the Critics Love U in New York" a rock song? It's more of a dance pop-tune. my jams- www.soundclick.com/iantimothy | |

I'm dying for an all rock tour, too! Nobody can really do a ripping rock anymore. Prince is the only one who can downright rock you out anymore and he was always the best at it anyway. We really NEED these kids to hear what honest, interplanetary rock sounds like and no one could introduce them to it the way P could. I hope he makes it his next teaching project!!!!! | |

Prince, did u hear us? I hope he hears us! It seems like a large number of us are SCREAMING out for a guitar-heavy rock album from Prince. It's been a LONG time! C'mon, P -- you've given us enough ballads in the last 5 years to last us until the 22nd Century. 
Luv & Peace, Alex Clubbin' in Mpls/A Night w. Prince | |

The guitar solo at the end of it on the O.N.A. tour was sublime Co-sign! But dang, leave The Ride at home just 4 ONE tour will ya Prince? If I hear that one mo' time Im gonna scream - as good as it is. Would be cool 2 hear that intense electric version of 'Something In The Water' too, with maybe a few covers thrown in. Always thought Led Zepp's 'Rock and Roll' would be f*cking awesome!!  | |

Have you not heard the guitar work that comes in later in the song? Bring it in a bit earlier in a subtle way and you got a very cool rock performance. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

Consider that on my list as well. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

This is good idea....

What kind of band would Prince need for a rock tour? I'm assuming he would want a different bass player. I love Rhonda but I'm not sure she is "raw" enough. And maybe a new drummer, too. Nothing against John Blackwell. This is a really crazy idea, and yes, I know it would never happen, but how about bringing Andre Cymone and Dez Dickerson back? Assuming they still have the musical chops for it. I'm sure both those cats would agree to tour with Prince again. No doubt they need the money. So who would the drummer be? | |

Andre and Dez would be cool. If not, how bout Flea and Dave Navarro? As far as drums go, I'd say Dave Grohl is the man for the job. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

Sounds great but I can't see Prince working with established artists. Don't tell anyone but I think he may have control issues. Regarding Dave Grohl is Prince the only person he hasn't worked with? | |

I could almost see something like that happen. Not necessarily a tour but maybe a tribute to Prince. He could play with different people he's influenced. May not be as cool as a tour but at least it's something that could actually happen. Prince will be fifty in four years maybe he'll do like David Bowie and play a special concert? Of course he doesn't celebrate birthdays anymore. | |

I don't. It's just wishful thinking. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "
