Prince & The Revolution: Live

'Prince & The Revolution: Live', the concert was beamed live around the world via satellite, and was seen by an estimated 12-15 million people. (30th March, 1985)


What was this shown on ... PPV? It wasn't network friendly ....

I'll never forget Channel 4 showing the Lovesexy Live show at 08.00pm one Friday night and then repeated at something like 11.00am the next Sunday morning.

It was very surreal to hear 'Bob George' on a lazy Sunday morning.

You'd imagine there was an uproar in the British tabloids the next day at Prince's rampant potty-mouth, but nobody ever commented... Very odd.

I thought it was "network friendly" when seeing the VHS tape(and I still own it). My thought about that is that they were probably on tour, and was a spur of the moment thing or the networks thought that he was humping on stage a bit too much and thought the kiddies didnt need to see it.

WHO KNOWS what the deal was back then in that year.

IMHO, it was a great show! I watched that over and over again.

Network friendly??? Maybe now but not back in 1985. This was during the time people were tippin' about what Daisy Duke was wearing on The Dukes.

"Tell me mama, does your man have an ass like mine?" I guess I would be surprised to hear that NBC aired this.

Does anyone remember what it was shown on?
