HI do u think the lovesexy tour was prince best tour ever? personaly i think YES!!!!!

Yep

Definitely, but I think it's a lot about my having been so young when I saw him and that concert being one ofthe few that I'd seen at that time. Looking at the DVD I've got, it takes me back to that time. I actually remember it as being like a religious experience, with everyone chanting, "Love, God." It was pretty trippy.

Plus, I got his autograph the day before at a record signing (it was an actual record).

no ...
the controversy-tour is defenitely his best!

I get bored by the medley's and the short versions during the LoveSexy-tour:
play those f*ckin' songs properly!
(I always skip the piano medley)

Best that I've seen anyway. Lovesexy Live is an official release in Europe, no? if so, is there anywhere on the net where I can buy?

YES YES YES!!!!! Not only was it his best tour I thought the album was so wondrful. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Lovesexy era!

Shhh you!!

I wouldn't even say it's in my Top 5.

With apologies to funkyblues for throwing this slightly off track for a moment, just out of interest... what are your top 5 then?

I'd say mine would be:

#1 Lovesexy '88

#2 Parade

#3 Nude

#4 O.N.A.

#5 Act II

Lovesexy wuz great, but not the best tour too me. You had to see him before that era.

#3 Nude
#4 O.N.A.
#5 Act II ?????

Those three would be in my worst top 5 !

The best:
1 Controversy
2 Dirty Mind
3 Parade
4 Purple Rain
5 Sign "O"the Times

Musically I think One night alone was his best tour. Recently I saw U2 live in Oslo and that was a very good show. Prince is the best musician I have ever seen live, but Bono has a stronger voice and I really like a lot of their music. Songs like With or with out you and where the streets have no name are fantastic songs. I wish Prince had written those to songs.

How lovely for you, but I wasn't speaking for you was I

There's a special place in my heart for the LoveSexy tour because it was the first time I saw Prince in concert.

Plus Sheila was there. You can't beat a concert with Prince AND Sheila.

Me too... London August 1988. Missed out on SOTT in 87 due to the much publicised cancellations in the UK. Great tour, great album!

BananaCologne said:

no, indeed .... but I thought people could react to eachother at a forum, isn't it? ...

the best band
a universal message
the best new music area
after this P. couldn't beat himself anymore

so by far the best tour!

I prefer the intimacy of the ONA tour...I hope he does another one of those...

BananaCologne said:

I don't know really... if I had to decide, maybe Lovesexy would even slip in.
Anyway, I would rank the SOTT Tour and the Parade Tour above it, also the Ultimate Live Experience Tour and ONA (if only because because it was my first Prince concert) and Controversy or The Triple Threat shows if they weren't so short.
If we take the aftershows into consideration, it would look different though!

ThataintFunky said:

Absolutely, hence why I responded to your diss over my choices. Maybe if you had taken a little time to consider how to phrase your post in the first place, you wouldn't have recieved the response you did.

PS: Interesting choices calldapplwondery83, thanks for the cool response.

ThataintFunky said:

Lovesexy was my first concert, ONA just might have been the best though.

U're just OLD!

As always, the correct answer is:

Best tour for overall experience, theatrics, theme = Lovesexy
Best tour for musicianship = One Nite Alone

FWIW, I would put Musicology 3rd.

Absolutely perfect!

I bet you wish you attended the shows I have

Foreign languages aren't my interest, so I always keep it short ...
mainly because I don't wanna need a dictionary every two minutes.
So, my apologies, I don't wanna be rude ... I'm just keepin things simple.

Maybe you should consider the fact that were not all english / american.
