I don't hate, anything at a Prince concert. What a weird question!  | |

I'll take the music in whatever form it comes.
Neither is as annoying or disappointing to me as being shoved around by drunks or having my view obstructed by camera phones. | |

medlies of hits. I'll take the instrumentals any day.

I don't hate anything about a Prince concert. I will admit that sometimes the instrumentals get a little long but that's just because I'm going through Prince withdrawal. But I know P is taking that time to get all sexified and the longer the instrumental, the more sexy he will be when he takes the stage again. Man, I need another Prince concert, STAT! Shake it til ya make it  | |

I love the Medleys! I was lucky to have been at the 7th Aug show where he opened with a 25minute medley of classics with just him and his electric guitar!! He later did a piano medley(but good, nearly full versions)of satisfied, how come you dont call me...,do me baby, the beautiful ones, and condition of the heart!!! I've seen 4 shows this tour so far, but that has been the most different and for me still the best one so far!!!
I have to say though, I don't really enjoy the instrumental jams, especially when Prince is not involved!! Full versions of songs are great, but imagine a show that was one huge medley of songs(at least the first verse and chorus). Every 2 minutes would keep you screaming out YES, I wanted to hear this song!!!!! so much of his work would be covered. Life's a Parade! LoveLife, LoveSexy! | |

U know what i hate is when.....
He playes one of his long lost gems... (Example..Around The Wourld in A Day) Then after a verse or 2 it becomes a showcase for the band members | |

I hate those damn accoustical sets. I came to see a Prince concert, not a stripped down, sitting on a stool, "Hee Haw" version of his songs. Andy is a four letter word. | |

You mean show that opened with a 9 minute medley of Little Red Corvette, Raspberry Beret, Alphabet St, I could never take the place of your man and Sometimes it snows in April???? Which, alphabet St aside only consisted of a verse and chorus of each? . |

He could get up onstage and fart the alphabet -- and it'd be cool with me. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

i hate that he keeps doing purple rain and all the older material aka hits..if ur gonna go old material, try doing songs that have never gotten the chance 2 b heard live..it would b so cool 2 hear fascination live...i like it there live more often..and anything from 1996 onwards
long overdue 2 hang up the hits man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

Also, I dislike hits medleys and I hate it when he cuts some songs waaaaay too short. It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

I hate the Medleys ... as if those songs don't deserve to be played properly!
Play them extended ... or don't play them at all. I hate the accoustic sets, because they're boring. But I have no problem with one accoustic song, played in full. I have no problem with a funky instrumental, I have a lot af problems with the jazzy instrumentals. I love the 10 minutes extended live versions of the funky songs | |

I could do without multiple song covers.
I could REALLY do without Down By the Riverside/When the Saints... I could do without an under 2 hour show. But in the end, what I could REALLY do without is not being able to get to a show!!!  I'm firmly planted in denial |

I was also at this show, I enjoyed every moment of it, I was also at the show on the 24th and although quite different I enjoyed it just the same. I love whatever Prince chooses to play, afterall it is his show. The only part of a Prince concert I hate is the part when he leaves the stage for the last time and we are all left there wanting so much more!! I also hate all the shows I can't get to lol!! Love me | |
