I saw the part where he played "Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad" and out of the blue he said, "BITCH!" I would usually get mad or ignore that kind of comment but I could not stop laughing because the way he said it!

Did anyone else see this part or see the part amusing?!

that is funny

I have that recording but I don't remember that part.

Yep,that was funny and cool 2. Hearing Prince say that kinda stuff seemz strange these dayz.

Paris 81, that must be very rare

treniselove said:

Yeah and he also did it on the Controversy tour that I saw in 82 out here in Santa Monica on the same song. On the Houston show on the Controversy show from 81, same thing, same song. Obviously he started doing it on the DM tour and kept doing it all through the Controversy tour.

i've heard this and thought it was like when i first heard it. i also like the extra guitar part at the end of that performace . p was such a smart ass back in the days, so . another one i like from those days is from when you were mine when he goes like "i know, that you're goin' with another mutherfucker, i don't care, cuz i love you babe, i wanna be your sucker .

first of all, that's funny.

Second of all, Prince would never ever use the word bitch to describe his lover, unless He was sayin'.., "bitch...when we get back from church, were gonna...u know the rest and He knowz who He iz and she knowz who she iz. kinda jazz. I'm just being stupid. ry not to take me seriously...I am a loving person, I luv u all.

at that same show he sang a new song "jack u off" at one point he chuckles a little bit as he says "jack u off" as if he knew it was a silly song.

I've got a recording from the New Orleans date from the same tour and he shouts "Bitch" during the song then as well. 1981...man, Prince andthe band were so raw and funky back then. There's a version of Uptown on the recording that is awesome!

Houston and New Orleans I have heard, but I still dont get the Paris reference, can someone enlighten me?

Whitnail said:

there is a concert from paris that is circulating and this is where the reference comes from. if u have seen the bbc documentary, there r brief shots in it from this concert

cheers, i didnt know that, so i looked it up and sure enough P played in Paris on the 3rd of June 1981, their equipment got delayed somewhere and P didnt take stage till 2.30am.

I also read that alot of the Dirty Mind Tour was professionally filmed, what I wouldnt give to see that

I'm getting old

Reading this thread with Prince's different lines makes me think about a song of his where normally it goes something like this:

Girl asks him: "are you gay" and he goes with a soft deep voice "no... are you?"

But on this tape, I believe from '81 too he screams "no... yo momma!". That made me laugh everytime I heard it.

Please, what song is this, can someone help me before I lay in my bed thinking about this song all night!

CJanssen said:

Not too old yet, not too old yet! It's from Uptown!!!

CJanssen said:

uptown, it is brilliant how he does that, total tongue in cheek

Was watching this show just yesterday.

The best quote from the show for me is:-

Come on you peckerheads sing it!!

sounds cool. wonder if he meant/realised how funny he was?

CJanssen said:

Yup, definately from Uptown....I've got the same show and listen to it loads. Prince sounded like he was well up for it that gig!! And I love that bit "Just looked her in her eye and said...NO, IS YO MOMMA?!"....hilarious!
