First report on Paisley gig

There was yet another fantastic performance at Paisley Park June 19,
1999. The show began around 2:30 a.m. and lasted for a little over 2
hours. There was late notification via the L4OA site, so the crowd
wasn't huge, but it was an appreciative, enthusiastic audience. The band
included 0(+>, Larry G., Mike Scott, Kirk J., Morris Hayes & the
percussionist, whose name escapes me now. Of course the band was funky &
tight as usual! The slow, funked up version of "Right Back Here in My
Arms", was fantastic. 0(+> began this song with a lot of talk, and the
recorded version of the lyrics: "Don't U 2 write me letters, Don't want
you callin' my farm" was substituted with, "Mayte's Mom quit callin' me
on the phone" .....if that was heard correctly, it was amusing.
Someone who was there write in with the set list please!



Update: An anonymous reader offers the following correction:



I was at the performance last night and prince definitely did not say "Mayte's mom quit callin' me on the phone." What he did say was "Mike Scott's mom should stop calling me on the phone!" That is the truth, heard it loud and clear; got to clean that wax out yo' ears. smile
