How many of U would go 2 a Prince concert that he plays only covers?

I thoroughly hope concert venue gets a deserted look. yes

Empty room, empty room
How am I gonna fill it?

I would go to any concert, gig, party, whatever where I'd have the chance to see, hear and enjoy Prince live

Of course, am sure afterwards, I'd ask for more...and wil definetely buy those covers.......

I think he's done some awesome covers before. But I wouldn't mind if he skipped Play That Funky Music...

Oh, blue light...

I wouldn't mind I guess, then we could experience live Betcha by golly wow, Lalala means i love u, crimson and clover, one of us, i can't make u love me, nothing compares 2 you (kidding lol ), and others songs that I actually think his rendition was better than the original...

Yeah, I love Graffiti Bridge movie, so what? ''Oooooooooooh Montreal, say it!''

I would no doubt. I'd also like an official album of covers from him. I'm probably in the minority on that one though. biggrin

Good music makes me happy.

I would, just to see Prince live. I've still never gotten the chance to do that. neutral

I kinda like reinterpretation albums. If he picked say 10-12 widely ranging but awesome songs and put his own spin on them I'd totally buy it..

Change it one more time..

I went to see Meshel N'degeocello's concert a month ago where she played nothing but P covers and she kicked ASS. The whole audience thoroughly enjoyed it. It would all depend on what he played IMO.

I wouldn't shell out too much, but sure, why not? Wait, weren't you all just complaining about him playing too many covers?

I sure would. I love his falsetto. He puts his own special thing on the songs, and I like that. wink

Yessss! I would love to hear him do that one live.

I would also buy a collection of him doing all covers, if he ever put one out.
