HOW'S PRINCE' DANCING ON THIS TOUR?

I don't recall reading any comments on Prince's dance moves on any of the concert reviews... I know the splits are not present on this tour, but does he dance a lot or is it limited to what we have seen through the snippets of live videoclips that have been made available? Does he actually dance or does he just walk around the stage? Someone enlighten me!

What brought me to question this is that I just watched a video clip of a live performance of The Work & Delirious from Housequake.com and that was absolutely incredible! I hope to see some of that in August.

I would call it playful posing to a beat.

Temptation

He danced his butt off in San Jose. He was a tornado. No splits, but a lot of funky steps.

Basically he is dancing around like he might at a party. Its fun to watch and he's very graceful.

But it is not the athletic, splits, jumping off the piano, choreographed type stuff we have seen in the past. Those days seem to be gone. He's still smooth but I wouldn't honestly call him a "whirlwind". Not compared to what we've seen from him in the past.

But the guy's 45 and his hips and knees are probably giving out on him! Have you seen the pics of him in orthopedic shoes? ON STAGE?! I saw them over on housequake.com. The man has actually been photographed on stage w/out heels.

You know he's in some pain when that's happening!!

i agree. he is stylish and graceful. i think it is still cool because he still focuses a lot of his moves to respond to the rhythm of the songs and the pop of a snare or kick drum. very precise. i'm sure he could still do the splits. but it would not be something he could keep upi constantly.
