so was that just as there were tuning up for controversy?

I think he was disgusted with the cameras/cell phones snapping, that's why he kept turning his back. It is obvious those at the show were not aware of his "no camera" policy, but fans here are used to that.

hey i think he was having fun, he kinda smiled a few times.. he knew there were cams still got onstage..

plus I was streaming on windows media and sound was good but video kept on freezing on and off at times..

inspireof said:

True. I'm glad he received a good welcome from the audience. Wonder if he'll be visiting other clubs with live bands. New Yorkers don't sleep.

I probably should have picked that application instead of realplayer, because realplayer froze on the last 10 minutes, and I was rushing trying to log on to the show.

inspireof said:

So he didnt' sing or play on I Feel 4 U?

I saw him turn around and sing into the mic real quick on one of the songs. It may have been when they played the long version of "Controversy".

Prince Shows Up At Village Underground For Unannounced Time Gala Aftershow


Prince played the Time 100 event last night in New York and then headed over to the Villiage Underground to do an impromptu 45 minute set.

Prince was rehearsing at the Villiage Underground earlier in the day we are being told and Prince most likely played their tonight to thank them for letting them rehearse there.

The ENTIRE after show was streamed online at Thevillageunderground.com and Prince must have had some idea he was being filmed by them and with all the camera phones in the audience as he played a majority of the show with his back to the crowd.

Prince is rocking a shorter ‘do nowadays and ran thru a set that we heard consisted of “I Feel 4 U” and “Controversy” along with a few songs by his 8 piece band.

This was totally unannounced and no extra money was made by Villiage Underground even though the baddest man on the planet was rocking their stage.

The Time gala event earlier in the night featured a short set by Prince and the band with Shelby J. singing “Angel” a cover tune by Sarah McLachlan. We will keep you updated if we hear and see more.-Dr.FB

Please don't call me that, it's childish and unnecessary. I was on this thread, and did not see your post on that earlier.

He didn't sing but he was playing guitar during "I Feel For You" he was behind the third singer stage right. When they do "put your hands up" you can see him clearly standing behind the singer facing the crowd. By the time they got to Controversy, however, he had moved further stage right and turned so his back was facing the audience for the most part.
