Prince: Technical problems with his guitars at 2 shows(Lovesexy 1988 & One Nite Alone: Vega 2002) Prince is such a fantastic & excellent guitarist we all know that,
Prince is "the modern day Jimi Hendrix"...
here: are some errors which has been "hunting me" for a long time:
2) One Nite Alone aftershow Live in club Vega, Copenhagen Denmark 2002, during The Question Of U, the solo is cut short, cuz the guitar is suddenly dead. I was there and I remember Prince handed the guitar to the technician while the band just played on... (on the Sabotage bootleg, the guitar dying is at 2:58 - The Question Of U), the actual solo is only about 10 secs long: I 100% sure Prince was about to play a fierce solo, that never happened. DAMN. Still it's an absolut brilliant show.
Maybe you can name more technical errors with guitar solo's.. happening in Prince's long career.... [Edited 10/26/10 20:41pm] [Edited 10/26/10 20:56pm] [Edited 10/26/10 21:02pm] Prince 4Ever. | |

It's just that I thought by 'error' you meant him playing the wrong chords or notes, as opposed to what I suppose could be referred to as 'technical issues'. | |

I think the point Vict0r was trying to make was that these were actually technical issues and not really "errors" as if Prince played a sour note, or in the wrong key.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

How about this ....... Prince: Technical problems with his guitars at 2 shows (Lovesexy 1988 & One Nite Alone: Vega 2002) ???
Then people will know it's to do with guitar issues gone wrong during performances.
Just my suggestion.
And a note for orgers: Help those whose English is not their first language. Thanks Ohh purple joy oh purple bliss oh purple rapture! REAL MUSIC by REAL MUSICIANS - Prince "I kind of wish there was a reason for Prince to make the site crash more" ~~ Ben |

If it were the guitars with the EMG's maybe the battery died.
If it were the Tele then I don't know.
Wendy had problems with her white telecaster when she played with P at the Musicology Show in New Orleans. "The first time I saw the cover of Dirty Mind in the early 80s I thought, 'Is this some drag queen ripping on Freddie Prinze?'" - Some guy on The Gear Page | |

His guitar cut out during "rock lobster" after anotherloverholenyohead at the Indigo aftershow 28th August 2007.
It was the blue strat and it just clean cut straight out Prince danced to the sid eof the stage giving the guitar tech a filthy look. He then jokingly went to throw it in the crowd and then didn't.
Cora kept playing untill the guitar got fixed and then the gig continued
Awesome gig | |

Awesome gig I was going to post about that too he jokingly says 'thank you. Good night' after the tune. That show is incredible and for me is up there with the best shows he ever played if you've gotta pay for things that you've done wrong I've gotta big bill coming at the end of the day- Gil Scott Heron

I was just asking. I love that performance. But the guitar sounds a little off. It's been commented on before around here. | |
