Thanks alot Militant. I appreciate it

At first I really wanted to see Prince at Essence, but then I was listening to Big Ken or one of the guys on Michael Deans podcastjuice.net and he said it was the same songs he's been singing and he was right. I haven't seen Prince live in 10 years and it looks I won't be again.

How does he do Days of Wild without swearing?

He's got so many great songs, such a shame he's played more or less the same setlist for the last 10 years. Surely even he is sick of playing Let's Go Crazy, 1999, Kiss etc confused .

He's almost unique in that he could play a near-entirely different setlist containing other, less played hits and cool obscurities and still be able to wow the crowds.
