Another report on the last Paisley performance

I know this is a bit late but thought u might enjoy some of these details that have not been mentioned in other reports.



The sound of the very likable new song "Va Voom" that he per4med was pop-rock oriented with very playful lyrics and featured his guitar. At the end of the song Prince said, "That's #1 on r radio station at Paisley Park, 4get about 96.3" A reference 2 the fact that the new radio station in town does not play his music anymore but constantly played it when they 1st started up.



During "Poom Poom" (much of which did NOT include his live vocals but recorded 1's) when the line "If U were here I wouldn't masturbate" came along Prince said, "I ain't singin'" in a coy manner.



During his rap at the soundboard on the last song he had his big book of lyrics with the symbol logo on it opened up & rapped a whole page of lyrics, some from "Acknowlede Me", others new but it was very smooth & impressive as was the entire nite.



Last but not least Damon Dickson handed Prince a VHS videotape which Prince put on the big screens 4 all 2 c. It was a D&P era live show cued up 2 show Damon(?) in a female wig & garters chasing ppl around the stage during "Love Bizarre" & focusing many of his frisky attentions on Prince. After that funny bit ended Tony M. started a rap on the video & Prince slowly & purposely turned the sound volume down & then off all the while laughing his ass off as he did it. Damon was also laughing hard as well as Morris Hayes who could still b heard laughing loudly long after the bit ended. Meanwhile, every1 in the room also seemed 2 greatly appreciate not having 2 hear Tony M.
