I remember a fan posted on here awhile back that Prince did a cover of "Billie Jean" at a soundcheck once.

When was that..? Like what year or abouts?

Thank you for helping me.

Wasn't it the last year?

he did at Motown 25 I think.

Brisbane, Australia
27 October 2003

I'm pretty sure he did that at an ONA US soundcheck, too. That would be 2002.

If I recall it wasn't as if he played the entire song he just played a few chords. Sometimes you look at a tracklist for a show and you see some really excellent and rare songs played and then you get the boot and he just noodled a few chords and moved on...always so disappointing.

He played an instrumental version April 2002 Seattle,Washington right after playing a part of Do U Lie?.That was one of the most surreal moments of my life!
