Morris Day Doesn't Know THE TIME

Okay, so before I rant, I must say I don't know all the circumstances around this but here it goes:

Tonight in Omaha, Morris Day and the Time performed. It was a 'special performance' after an arena football game. The game ends and the PA says the show will begin in approximately 20 minutes. More like 90 minutes. Damn, what a long wait! I can't help but wonder if the only reason for the delay was that Morris couldn't get his hair just right.

Despite the excruciating wait, the show was nothing short of fabulous. That band is SO tight! Morris and Jerome can crack anyone up. They jammed all night long, only slowing it down for 'Gigalos Get Lonely Too.' I was in the very front and had a blast. I'd recommend seeing them, but don't count on Morris knowing how to tell time.

Now, I can see that shit happenning w/his ass. That's typical of a pimp2. You got to make sure your shit is right or you don't go on stage tonight Yeesss.

yeah for a group called the Time they almost NEVER start on Time, but after the show starts you forget about that.

Y'all have to remember that most of the band lives in seperate cities now & have to fly in seperately for shows. If someone's flight gets delayed & they're being flown in the morning of the show, it can sometimes be problematic. Also, YES, they are worth the wait ten times (pun intended) over!
Nasty girls, dance, dance, DANCE!

I've never been to a Time concert but... they just don't do it like Prince. I can't really feel the time. What does Morris do but think he's cool on stage.. He don't play no damn instruments.

Wow!!! Spoken like someone who's truly never seen these guys perform on stage before, be it live or on video. Next time they're even CLOSE to being in your area, make sure you check 'em out! Truth be told, I've enjoyed their shows over the past 7 years more than Prince's, and their shows have virtually stayed the same for I don't even know how long now. wink

Thats right... they don't change... it's been the same for all these years... do something different already "Time". I don't know... I think the best musician outta that band was Jesse. That cat can play the fuck outta that guitar.

Funny, I thought the title to this thread had to do with the fact that The Time hardly every play anything outside of their early 80s jams. Anyway, they be a whole heck of a lot of fun to watch, if you don't mind stepping back in time for a bit. And Jesse's presence would make the show a whole lot betta!

nod Agreed. The Time without Jesse is like Kelloggs Corn Flakes without the milk. Somethings just go well together and don't mess with perfection.
