Also I want to mention that with a big-screen view, Prince looked happy and well at these shows. He was energetic and enthusiastic. He was getting older, and I liked seeing that because he was actually HUMAN like the rest of us. And he was still absolutely beautiful. Especially in show 3 with his fringed, sleeveless vest. He did not have any jewelry or sleeves on or jewelry or anything else on his fingers - and he was just gorgeous and bare. His arms and hands were so beautiful...just naked as they were. And his arms and hand movements playing the guitar were so smooth and sexy. Most gorgeous man/being to ever walk the face of the earth besides Jesus Christ.

Can I just say amen to this....and maybe I'm in the minority but I absolutely love the fact Prince had no tattoos. There's just something about a eeing his beautiful skin not covered up in ink. 🙂

He had the most beautiful flawless skin and bronze tone.

Yes. I've noticed that too and wonder what it's about.

I just finished watching the dvd 'Live Romance 1600' with Sheila E and Prince. Around 53 min, at the end of 'Love Bizarre' just before the camera starts spinning round. Prince does exactly the same movement with his hands and the audience copies. Then he gives them an ok 👌🏼. Guess it's just for fun. When I saw it it reminded me of your question. What do you think, is it the same? [Edited 1/4/17 15:16pm]

Nice catch, paradise000! Yes, I believe it is

I had totally forgotten about this. I guess he could have done the same thing on all three concerts.

But it is strange then that the cameras never caught it once, and on top of that is the 'humming' (for lack of a better word) that is accompanied at the same time.

A question for you experts: My DVD set, I think, is Official pro-shot. Seems it. But the views/shots are from a different angle than the videos of these shows I've seen on YouTube. Why is that? Was there more than one company doing the "Official" filming?

There is a 10 minutes + audience video circulating that has been synced with the soundboard recordings.

Is that the one you mean?

You mfs make me CRAZY I believe he was truly emotional at the end of Breakdown - he was wiping tears, not sweat. I've seen him perform too many ballads - there's winky showmanship, & there's heartfelt emotion. This was the latter. Let's not forget he wrote it from a clearly vulnerable place, & when you access those feelings it can hit you hard, even in a room full of people. Dude was feeling that, beautiful performance (falsetto was a little gritty, but I dug it)

I just think more people should be talking more about the Peach & Black shirt popping up all over the place at these shows

ElGorillos said:

Can someone explain to me where this comes from? It can clearly be seen on all three nights,

but I have never seen this behavior before on a concert, or on video.

It's just something people do at concerts in Switzerland. I see it a lot.

Prince's facial makeup was primarily contouring. He was a matter at using at least two shades of foundation. He narrowed his nose, lightened his forehead and cheekbones.
If you look at photos, you will see what looks like a shine down his nose, but that's actually highlighting makeup.
My own formal makeup uses tricks like that, roo ... And color to my pasty-white skin.

I gotta say Prince is the only guy that I could accept wearing makeup. I was never really a fan when it was too thick or heavy but applied right it looked so good. Better than a lot of women apply makeup.

I can't even really tell there's foundation makeup there unless I'm looking for it. I believe over the years he found what worked for him and did his own makeup. He sure is beautiful.

On my way home today I was listening to Dark from the 2013 shows and I always laugh when I hear Prince sing that he's gone thrfouh "14 cans of windex". Uh, Windex doesn't come in cans, Prince...too funny! Only a guy who hasn't to wash a window for 40 years would say that! 😀💜

True. But it used to come in spray cans, many years ago. It was like v canned hairspray. It's the same kind of thing as a guy who doesn't know how to turn on his own stove. (Maya in the online version of the GQ article.)

And a guy who sings for a gal to beep him in the SHOE video. Do they even make beepers anymore???

P could be so adorably old fashioned and out of touch sometimes.

Love that about him.

OK so I finally have the full videos and have been watching them. What exactly was the deal with Andre Gouche? Did Prince just bring him in for studio work and non-3EG stuff? He's really good but during night 1 and 2 it seems like someone just handed Ida a guitar to give her something to do. She certainly doesn't seem comfortable on the guitar like she is on bass. Another thing with these shows that is top notch is the horn players are actually dancing quite a bit. I know on Funkenberry's podcast Adrian Crutchfield talked about how hard it is to play and incorporate dance moves at the same time. I'm really impressed with the horns. And I love that Prince decided to do Courting Time and allow each horn player to get a solo. He definitely gave them the spotlight which is cool.
