Prince Unplugged?

Has Prince ever done an "unplugged" show and if so which albums or videos can I watch to confirm this?

A friend says Prince may be performing "unplugged" in Havana, Cuba later this year and I'm trying to confirm whether this may or may not be true.

A good one is the acoustic set from 2002's Celebration. It can be found on the Xenophobia collection. It has been released as a single show too but can't remember the title and I'm not at home so can't check.

Prince was gonna do any Unplugged performance for MTV in late 1991,during the Diamonds And Pearls era.I remember seeing the "coming soon" commercial for it lol For some reason,he cancelled.

The closest he got to a televised unplugged was the acoustic portion during the 2004 "The Art Of Musicology" TV Special.
Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

Prince is still a citizen of the USA, so the likelihood of him perfoming in Cuba is roughly zero.

That makes no sense. Americans go to Cuba every day.



Edit: just to clarify....they come back too. You have to travel there from another country that allows travel to Cuba like Mexico, France, or Brazil...basically any other country.

Why would you say that? Prince like other Americans can/have/and do visit Cuba. You are uninformed. So start saving for your trip today.

Thanks BG909, you're correct. Also, Americans go there without having to go through a third country. So start saving your $$$$$ if this is true it will be beyond magnificent.
