Prince 2nd in Q magazine's top 100 maddest moments in Rock

I haven't seen this discussed yet (did I miss it?), but Prince was second for spending twenty five minutes (with Larry Graham of course) lecturing a Jewish woman at her door during Yom Kippur dinner in Minnesota somewhere. Keith Moon was number one (I don't know if they singled out any particular act of his.) Anybody know anything about this or have any comments?

P.S. I just bought One Night Alone... Live (it was £36 in Selectadisc in Nottingham, UK) and haven't yet listened to it; should I build my hopes up?

lol
I'd say the name change was WAY madder than the door-knocking, but hey...it is pretty fucking stupid.

Enjoy ONA Live, good bargain - just watch out for them over-dubs!

who cares about Q?
about the live cd, if you saw the tour last year here in the UK, then expect the same sorta thing. there are some great performances but the weird thing is that i got a boot from the show i saw in London and the performances in my opinion are better than ONA...Live.
go figure.

Yes

The incident was first reported in the local press, then reported here and discussed on several threads a few months back.

Buy (or trade) just about any bootleg of the ONA tour, and it'll be better than ONA Live.

hey thats crazy i go to uni in nottingham and have seen that fucking ona live for weeks and weeks. but never bothered getting it. i did get all the albums like dirty mind, for you, prince and the hits/bsides there though!


as for that being the second craziest thing, i think they would have done the name change but it was probably too much work to research and do a proper thing on, plus its been done before. whereas this story would have been the second craziest thing ever in the early 90s, by now its not that much of a surprise!
