The ONA: LIVE guitar picture good or bad?

I think PRince always looks cool, but something about the ONA poster (with his guitar) bugs me. Anyone else have an opinion of this poster. They could've chosen a better picture.

I like it a lot better than the cover photo with the cheek suction action.

i almost bought this poster at Xenophobia. i agree, there's something odd about it. it's an almost-great picture. there's just something off... so i bought the long sleeve t-shirt instead.

I love the picture in the booklet of him in front of the mirror. biggrin

I've been trying to figure out what beauty products are on the counter in front of him. I think the one bottle looks like a bottle of Advil. lol

Well, it's no bikini shorts shower pose, but for a poster accompanying a live album, it's not bad. This is the kind of pic I used to love wallpapering my bedroom with when I was in high school and bought those cheezy Right On! Prince poster special magazines - remember those?

Thats actually a spinoff of a photo of Prince from the early 90s by Terry Geydesen in the book The Sacrifice Of Victor. Hers is alot more engaging.

I was looking at those beauty products too LOL wink I think one of the colognes might be Realm or perhaps something by Givenchy. The labels look like they were digitally removed. I wish whoever touched up the pics would chill out with the smart blur tho LOL.

I'm a big fan of shooting only with available light and letting the blur and other imperfections happen. The color is alot richer as is the atmosphere. The facial expressions were bizzare tho, they should have chosen a different image.

Thanks for the info. smile I've heard people talk of that book but have never seen it myself. I've heard there are some awesome photos in it so I hope I can get my hands on it one day.

Yeah, I noticed none of the tubes or bottles had any labels on them. lol Looks like he's got some cotton balls and a container of baby wipes up on there, tho. And that bottle of what I swear looks like Advil. biggrin

I love ALL the NEW pics of prince. recent pics of him have been few and far between. very sexy. he really looks like a jazz musician, no? i also think the NPG looks cool. renato may look like a nerd? but he goes real well with the bands jazz look, as does rhonda, candy and blackwell, and maceo. kind of a "manhattan transfer" look/feel to the band. very cool!
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses
