I already have tickets! HOWEVER, Prince would be wise to change up the current set-list and lose the pimp suits, the horns, Larry G., etc -- I LOVE the man but I doubt any of the recent Prince material will interest the Coachella set.

Oh puhlease!!!!

Prince is Prince... if they don't know that, they better just sit that night out. He is far too set in his ways to change for anyone.

U go Prince! Rock ur funky ass off! Pimp Suit and all!

Wasn't Larry G JUST with him at some show??... And what is wrong with not wanting Prince to go the way of James Brown or Chuck Berry -- his look is tired, and it continues to puzzle me since his fashion was SO cutting edge not that long ago... AGAIN, I love Prince and no one can touch him live -- I just hope he keeps it rocking and fresh for the Coachella kids... no biggie.

I am no Larry fan...believe me... I love the suits....most men start dressing different when they get older.... It's fly ... what's the deal....

Seems like an all alternative lineup, also mostly white. Prince has to rock at this one or they will throw shit at him.

You know all the artists except for him are gonna be cussing and showin body parts and all that. P'd head might explode. He needs Larry to protect him.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

:goodgriefgetmeatowel:

Prince playing at an event where people will be cussing and flashing body parts. Does my spirit good to visualize that image.


mushy


Except for the heat...crowd....general admission...hike to the wc....factor it would be heaven!

what is believed to be his first festival appearance ever

wouldn't that be Rock In Rio back in '91?


And what about the Newport Jazz Festival where tickets were like 1500 dollars? That particular festival had Paul McCartney playing as well.

oh hey! don't get me wrong. i am not a fan of endlessly repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating and repeating the same tired songs.

really, when you think of prince's massive catalogue and how each performance he gives limits him to twenty songs or so... why, it's a crying shame that so much stage time has already been devoted to those two mediocre songs as it is. sigh i would LOVE it if he'd play for example, The Human Body, or Get Wild, or almnost anything else.

BUT he has been playing them faithfully since 1997 for reasons unknown.
betcha he slides them in at this performance too. biggrin

ageed !!!!!

keep it upbeat and energetic..

lose the sly and the family stone set and the 25 minute of somewhere here on earth!

please show these people why you are the best!!!!!


I know right? If ever there is a time for a Prince return to stripped-down synths and metal guitar solos its NOW!!

exactly! This has the potential to go extremely wrong or very right! Something like the live version of Fury (ala SNL) would be more along the lines of what needs to happen if he's going to do new shit but even them, strip all that shit down and pimp that guitar out!. Hopefully my friend's connection can come through on this pray

I hope he is trying to reconnect.

I have to admit to feeling rather nervous for him. With one of his own concerts it's filled with fans that have paid to see Prince - with a festival, it's full of people that have paid to see a few different artists.

I wonder how the crowd will react hmmm
I'm not stopping. I haven't even taken my coat off

C'mon and dance while you, while you still have your cherry babe, cherry babe..

- Well, but if he is the headline, he will be the last concert of the day. So, people that dont like him will go home before the show begins. SuperBowl was a lot more risky, IMO. And he was great there.

The reason he commands 4 mil. (if that's real) is that there are only a few artists, new album or not, capable of drawing a large audience, and that are proven to show up, no bullshit no violence and deliver a great performance.
MJ , Van Halen anybody? any Hip Hop artist?
