Question for musicians...

Do you feel that you are good enough at your respective instrument to join Prince's band right now?

Hell no.

Sure I could play the songs.

But there is no way I could not meet Prince's demands for excellence and not screwing up / around.

Prince's bands are know to be top shelf profestionals. Anyone that would say they are ready, yet don't play profestionally, would be a fool.
News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

That's not true. His talent is one thing but Miles only surrounded himself with the best and brightest.
Why do you like playing around with my narrow scope of reality? - Stupify

I could definitely be a backup singer. I have a lot of performance experience, and I'm an excellent sight reader. I also hear harmonies very well, and know how to blend. Sign me up!
Wanna hear me sing? biggrin www.ChampagneHoneybee.com

Miles demanded better than the best from his bandmates, as does Prince.
