When did Prince do Billie Jean at Soundcheck?

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.

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! lol
