Maybe if Prince settled in the Vancouver/Victoria area and did a month of shows, repeating much of the same setlist you'd understand how the experience is watered down the more times you see him. For an artist with his catalogue, this is absolutely ridiculously insane. He's got so many great songs that he could be performing and introducing new or less educated fans to through these shows, like L4OATheOriginal said. It's a huge missed opportunity both for us AND for him.

But he didn't do a month of shows in Vancouver. He did one.

You guys are mad because Prince is not your personal jukebox. Too bad.

I wish you complainers were musicians and had the responsiblity to put together a setlist for multiple shows. A setlist that would sell tickets, get great reviews, and leave thousands of people delirious with joy every night.

Prince accomplishes that, and all you guys can do is whine that he didn't play something you hadn't heard in a long time.

That's really incredible. I mean, it really is.

Pick up a guitar, learn how to play all his songs, and then you can entertain yourself every single night. Problem solved!

wave musician right here bud and i have been in a band previously and we changed the setlist everytime we played thank u ..not a hard thing 2 do really

and when u consider in his press releases and interviews "we've rehearsed over a hundred songs" but then when u read the setlists ..WHERE ARE THOSE HUNDRED SONGS AGAIN?

but u ignore these facts don't u? lol

man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81
