More hits than Madonna's got kids. That's two and one adopted. Which I guess could count as a cover.

That's about right according to commercial radio in the UK. Same old fucking songs.

honestly, the audience annoys me more than anything P could evaaaar do.

I think the worst is when he lets the pretty girls on the stage to dance with him and they don't know the words to the songs.

Second worst is the people in the audience that sit down the whole time and stare at you while you're partying. It's like, "What did you come here for? And why are you sitting so close to the stage then?"

omg Damn! Prince throwin a hissy fit. giggle I would be interested to see that myself.

There is a Purple Rain Tour Rehearsal boot that I have where Prince gets pissed off at somebody (not sure who it was). You can hear him say, "If you put the motherfuckin magazine down and play your part!!" He is ROYALLY PISSED OFF at somebody. When I first heard it, I just about fell off my chair laughing. lol It's funny as hell in an odd sort of way. lol

I have that same boot, its too funny. I think he says "Will you put the MOTHERFUCKIN magazine down and play your PART?!?!....GOD! - I look over atchoo and you READIN'!" then he goes back into singing "God" in falsetto and you hear ppl cracking up over the irony of him loosing his cool while playing such a spiritual song.

-I always assumed it was Lisa not hitting Chords or something, I can see her spacing out reading a magazine and forgetting to come in, because she was never intimidated by Prince. Fink seems like he would always be too attentive and afraid of the Boss's temper to space out, and there is no other instrumentation during that part other than keys.

The only thing Prince says in concert that annoys me is " Thank U and Good Night". Because I want the concert to go on forever.

I hate it when he changes the lyrics to song in concert, just ain't the same. Not only that, it sounds crap when you got 20,000 people singing the wrong words.

nod that's true too.

eek When did that ever happen? Yelling at his sound guy?


On the Jam of the Year tour at the Lexington, KY show, he all but screamed at the sound guy during the build-up to "Face Down." Along with all the things he was usually saying before the song ("no slaves in this building," "is this an 18 & over affair," etc.), he went into some bizarre speech about the universe and a bunch lot of other things and then lashed out at the sound guy about...something. Most of the rant was inaudible; I think his bass and/or mic wasn't loud enough. He was clearly angry but it was quite fascinating. smile

I've never been able to find a tape of that show but have always wanted to hear it again.

falloff I sure would have loved to had seen that!

Invariably at most Prince concerts, Prince will say things in the moment that you have heard a thousand times before, and sometimes I just want to scream when he says it. Like "on the 1", "say what", "Say Maceo Blow your horn", "Hey Larry". Just for fun anybody else got any comments in concert Prince says that has become cliche?


"I'm so funky I can't sleep with myself" was always something I would "giggle" at when P would say it. It's not "annoying" though.
Peace ... & Stay Funky ...

I hate anything preachy that he says.


But mostly I just hate audience participation. He's so mesmerizing sometimes that it gets annoying when he snaps you out of the daydream with "SING!" or "YOU SING!" or "oh oooooh ow... oh ooooh ow" while holding the damned mic out to the audience.. I mean on my best of days I can barely muster a convincing "oh oooooh ow." rolleyes

Absolutely. I never understand artists who get the audience to sing. I paid to hear Prince, no some tone deaf middle aged woman singing three quarters of Purple Rain.

My second most feared comment is "gimme some horns".....arh! I like horns, but the amount of horn solos...

Honorary mention must go to the "dearly beloved". Prince has not performed "Lets Go Crazy" properly since the Purple Rain tour. I don't need one verse, one chorus then 2 minutes of "gogogo, go go go"
lol

"i'm talking bout THEOCRATIC ORDER!!" "Who's with me?", crowd: "Yayyy" not really knowing WTF Prince is babbling about.

So that's Prince AND the crowd annoying me immensely on One Nite Alone live! neutral

It's the audience members who do that in concert that annoy me. Very much. Not Prince.

Also on the 11/08/2000 HitnRun in Richmond, VA.

CONTINUOUSLY yelling at "Horace" (?) to turn it up and actually asked the crowd if they could hear his guitar. "COME ON, HORACE!!!"

Unfortunately he was right. You could definitely tell the difference once Horace got his shit right.
[Edited 3/15/10 17:01pm]


Daaaamn. I wonder if Horace had a job after that night? giggle

Not only Horace but JG doing the lights. Always calling up JG to turn up the lights or turn them down.
