Excellent, thanks for that. Would love to see Eric Leeds added to that lineup as while Maceo is obviously great, it Eric who really provides a more authentic Prince sound IMO.[/quote] That's a good idea. I have seen Maceo Some 30+ times (In his own bands as well as in George's clinton's Bootsy's and James Brown bands) And I must say the thought of Eric appeals to me!![quote] [Edited 5/18/07 5:17am] | |

Cyra said: man I wonder how much of that setlist he'll play at The Orpheum on Saturday. That'll be my first Prince concert, and while covers are nice and all, I really hope he doesn't lay into them too heavily like he seems to be doing lately. Covers aside, there's some great stuff on that setlist, but more from your repertoire please, Prince.
first prince concert? WOW..... how exciting I've been to around 30 or so his shows are addicting so what did you think? | |

Sly said: vivid said: I was there and although the covers were great (especially Crazy which was out of this world) I'd still rather here Prince songs than Aretha or Sly - I love those guys but I wanna hear Prince sing Prince. I'd have to agree with the original poster that a couple would more than suffice. It was a fantastic night though  I suppose it depends on the cover he chooses to do. I wasn't so keen on the Aretha cover as it was his support doing the singing. I think we can all agree that we like to see Prince doing the singing. The Sly cover i thought was funky as hell - and you could tell he was really loving it - so it's all good with me. But yes, i would have preferred him to do something of his own over this. But sometimes he'll cover something and it'll really excite me - usually more modern songs. - 'the best of u' at the superbowl is a good example. The Crazy cover at Koko was my favourite moment of the concert. It was just magical. It's a great song, and Prince took it to another level. The lyrics seemed so appropriate - and everyone singing along... well damn, it was like the new Purple Rain.. if you kinda sorta see wha ti mean..  Yep, I agree. Crazy was brilliant and I'd have loved it if he'd done Watchtower/Best of you! | |

Crazy was brilliant and I'd have loved it if he'd done Watchtower/Best of you! God damn, that'd rock. Yeah tha twould ahve been the best. It was one of the best nights of my life, but because it's Prince i can always think of ways that he could ahve made it even better. How about if he sacked off all the covers and just did a 2hour version of Controversy!! 
All those pussy zlist celebrities, and non fans would leave, and just leave the hardcore to tear the roof off. One can dream  "London, i've adopted a name that has no pronounciation.... is that cool with you?"
"YEAH!!!" "Yeah, well then fuck those other fools!" | |
