That show (org elders go light ur pipes till we'r done)

For the 1st time I watched the James, Prince and MJ concert. After years of reading about it on this site, I have come away w/ a total different perspective.

Many here discuss it as if it equates Bush dancing w/ Madonna and speak of Prince as if he bombed. 2 all who haven't seen this...NO.

Prince turned that shit out and stole the moment. After MJ did a few vocals and spins, Prince was allowed the HONOUR of playing his guitar w/ James' band, and then also getting on the mike.

It was obvious that he was in a different category as MJ that night and other than the pillar falling thing, proved his royalty.

OK org elders, you may return from the sharing of the peace pipe.

I've seen that thing many times and it always makes me cringe. The guitar was barely audible and way too big. Oh, I can't go on...it was just bad.

u have 2 dig it though.

check it out from my perspective, some1 who enjoys Prince's music equally, and some1 seeing it 4 the 1st time after hearing about it so many times.

even the way Prince walked onstage was sexy. if u look closely, u'll see that James is beaming smile the whole time he plays guitar in the background.

prince was also allowed a lot more time than Michael. why? becoz every1 there knew who was the Prince and Michael had 2 b humble.

another thing i liked was, correct me if i'm wrong, Prince greeting M by shaking his hand.

whereas Michael stayed on stage respectfully, when Prince was done he exited like a king.

No - evryone was just waiting for Prince to get his shit together and do something ... they were left waiting

whereas Michael stayed on stage respectfully, when Prince was done he exited like a king.

Right ... like an embarrassed king with no clue what to do next clinging helplessly to a fake lamp-post
