wait when on earth did he play Crystal Ball?

Electric Intercourse is all I got, unless you want to count some Hot Summer chants or Ol Skool Company.

I have heard many Prince live shows and honestly never heard this song played live. Maybe I'm missing something out?

Isn't the question about rare song you have actually heard?

Maybe not the three rarest if I thought about it a bit more, but the first three that spring to mind are:

The Sacrifice of Victor

Just My Imagination

Chelsea Rodgers

Girl at the North Sea Jazz Festival in 2011. So new that he had to teach it to the band on stage.
What's My Name was the opening song at the Melkweg, Amsterdam about two weeks later. It was the very first time it was ever played.
Chocolate at the same show.

Sorry, but Days of Wild was played a lot throughout the 90s and Everyday People is as common as Larry joining. The other two however... Yeah, you don't hear them a lot.

Maybe I misinterpreted Crystal Ball (the song) as a rare song. nuts

I saw him play 'Let's Go Crazy', a song that he only dusts off once in a blue moon. He even started the concert with it, which is almost unheard of.

No, it's rare alright - so rare that there no documented performances. Where and when was this?
