posted this on another thread:

Prince was AMAZING! The Word was awesome and Get on the Boat was great 2. Sheila was really good! I thought those drumsticks were gonna fly outta her hands @ some point. [And Prince and Sheila held hands the whole way walking down the aisle!!! A sign of things to come?] Was it just me or did the other performances pale in comparison? I mean really, Prince was the only one that went into the audience and got everyone dancing. And... Beyonce needs to stick to singing in English .

Overall, great award show. I desperately took pictures of the TV while Prince was performing- but the pics came out bad so I wont post them. I hope someone does post pics.


- was "love bizarre" playing when Sheila and Prince walked out? I read that somewhere. giggle


yes, a love bizarre was playin' as they walked into the night...


awwww. love is in the air... whistle

Was A Excellent Performance,

I was taking a nap and an Angel lol came and told me to get up and go turn on the TV before I miss everything....I had the tv on right when Prince was ending The Word saying "Get Up Come On Lets Do Something!!!
lol

Three other observations...

1. Who was he refrencing when he came back up on stage from the audience and said..."It's your boy" to Sheila and she cracked up. Than Prince backed up and shot a pool stick at the dude in the audience or in jest...one of the two! So was the man he is talking about?


2. When they break to go to piano why is Prince never on this instrument anymore? I know Relato is tops but it still aint P! And dont get me wrong I have loved him being on the guitar ALOT lately but a little piano once in a whiloe would be nice


3. The crowd was going so nusto at the end they edited the next guest - they had to take a break after that one -everyone was a little shell shock!in a good way wink
The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

That performane was hot! I LOVED hearing The Word performed. It took the song to a whole other level for me! Get on the Boat was great, the best live version of the song that I've heard and The Glamourous Life, how can one hate that song? That song will always kick my butt. The crowd was weird to me but the got hyped when P went into the audience and when Prince and Sheila did TGL. Great performance. I have to find a way out to L.A. this summer, no doubt!
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

IMO..;.the crowd got more hyped for The Glamorous Life cuz they KNEW the song, I don't think too many of them were familiar with The Word and Get on the Boat, which were outstandingly performed btw.....but that is what I thought....

I can watch this performance over and over and over and over. I have it recorded...it is awesome, I have loved Sheila E 4ever and Prince, well U know how I feel about him love

After playing guitar, and then watching the ALMA throwdown again, twice, I now say the mix was perfect... guitar was perfect... not 2 low in the mix. My God... the lighting, the twinz, cora, the merging of Grupo + NPG, horn arrangements, Prince (on vox and guitar), and... SHEILA... on top of mix kickin it in RARE form (even 4 her)... song selection, tempos, arrangements... and the exit, WITH the arrangement of "Love Bizarre" (particularly the horn arrangement there)... This may be my fav TV performance of all... and I'm an old-school head. DAG. P nailed it.

1) the band is Smokinnnnn hot
2) Prince seems happy.
3) Sheila E. belongs in his band more than Candy the sax player
4) The Boat is a great live song with this band
what a great performance

OK. So I should at least get the award 4 the "4 or more posts in a row" award... I truly meant them all.

Prince looked awesome
Sheila, beautyfull through and through
i loved that Prince performed "The Word"
but unless you already knew the song
how would anyone be able to decipher what he was saying??
kinda made the song worthless, imosho
all in all, a fun exciting performance as a whole
hopefully "The Word" gets another chance to shine in time

they've been friends for sooo long.i thought he played sheila at the NAACP awards with that weak assed one armed half hug, JW's do that shit and he was still married to Mani. At ALMA, the way he put his arm around her and how they exited was his way of saying i love u girl, sorry i was a dick when i was married.

I thought him coming out and "addressing the congregation from the pulpit" was a bit much.
