Few songs and Lil tour of some of Paisley Park. This was a free live stream. I was not expecting complete show. The highlight was the previews of the new music and Pretzelbodylogic. It was balls to go live, they could have recorded and edited down. I'm excited as a fan cuz I think we will be getting more new music in future and what we have confirmed is sounding like tour in works. What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet? |

Of course this event was supposed as a promo for the new albums. Don't play stupid.
Oh, and I didn't buy AOA and I have no plans to do so, because I don't like it.
Clearly stupidity is rampant here as I am responding to someone who thinks a live release party was designed to sell records in an era where records don't sell for an album that is fully leaked. You also state you have no plans to buy the albums but stayed up late to watch a live feed of songs you don't like being performed live. PRINCE.ORG is the stupid bubble apparently....Art official cage is playing in the background.
You don't have to call others stupid just because they don't like something that you do. People like whatever they want to like and if they don't, then so be it.......some nerve! |

Judgin by your avi, you love Bruno Mars too. So I'm sitting here wondering why Prince won't even look Bruno's way, so to speak, and work with him too on an album or whatever. He's working with Kendrick Lamar so why not Bruno too? Come on Prince stop hating on Bruno and just cut a track and be done with it already! Trolls be gone! |

Look, that was just so-so but based on some of the negtivity that some of you are showing, would anything short of Prince pulling the full touring band from the Parade era out of his ass been good enough? Yes, the host was a bit of a dimbulb, yes the concert was too short and rather random but damn...such nastiness. [Edited 9/30/14 21:37pm] All good things they say never last... |

How on earth did PRINCE manage to fuck up a live performance?
Why didn't he just do a slamming 5 song set with the effortless cool, charisma and musicianship that he can pull out of his ass whenever he wants???? Something like the pre Super Bowl thing he done.
Exactly.. (i clearly didn't expect a 90min show...) |

To be honest, I actually liked eveything before that 'performance'. Seeing inside Paisley Park, Prince on the phone, NPGQ etc. Can't believe it was the man himself who was by far the weakest thing about it. Although, it was 3rdEyeGirl that really let him down. I got two sides... and they're both friends. |

Ok this was never billed as a concert. It was billed as a album release party and their were reports that Prince wasn't even going to perform and yet he plays tracks from both albums and has a host tour paisley, you got sneak peeks at 3-4 unreleased new songs, a couple jazz numbers and the dude actually gets on stage and does some songs and then does a duet with Kendrick but that isn't enough. He's gotta give you people a full suite of clean performances just because you say so. It's just supposed to be a live release party, streamed on line. Lots of people have unrealistic expectations. Let's compare to Kanye who had people believing he would perform only to watch a single video being played on the side of a building. and yet this is the worst thing to ever be a thing? Really? Prince fans are sooooo weird.
Well, thats a glass full perspective I suppose which is okay. |

Yahoo billed it as a concert on their website today. Prince sent out a notice to Twin Cities people tonight that it was a concert. Quit defending bullshit.
Billed as LIVE RELEASE PARTY streaming through YAHOO's CONCERT CHANNEL. There was nothing intended for it to be a concert ever. You inferred it so you got disappointed. Not defending BS just pointing out the obvious. I literally just saw it advertised on Yahoo's site as "Prince LIVE CONCERT." Right on my iPad, computer, and Apple TV.

Wow, it was only a release party folks. I'm afraid you're gonna need to buy concert tickets if you want more.
Except for the dingbat hostess it was good. Prince was feeling his oats and gave a nice little free showcase. For those of us who haven't been to Paisley it made me want to go.
I absolutely must have Revelation and Xcess Space soon and I totally enjoyed NPGQ and Liv.
Kendrick Lamar, I could have done without though.
Why does this damn place crash on every major event?
Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. |

The NPGQ sounded fucking incredible. The mix over stream was lovely as well which makes P's performance even more shocking. I can't believe musicians of that calibre were in the other room while Prince made do with 3rdEyeGirl
PRINCE SOUNDS BETTER WITH A BIGGER BAND! Always has. The band he had for the Musicology tour and the one he took to the O2 in 2007. That's the sort of standard you expect when you think of Prince. I got two sides... and they're both friends. |

I just gotta say I agree with polo1026, golden parachute and others around here. A little more positivity please. At least the host was real, and kind of funny. Maybe she doesn't know prince like the encyclopedias we have in our brains about him, but she kept it rolling and kept up good repertuare with the audience and interviewees. We got to hear new songs everyone will be bootlegging for days, and we got to hang out live in paisley awhile. We got to see Prince diddle around and do his thing and even got to hear what's my name...something I wouldn't have dreamed of ever hearing live. I'm sure Prince and the gang are still burning the midnight oil. We just got to see the warm up. But I loved what I got to see and I'm damned proud to be a Prince fan right now!

Lovesex vs Lovesexy:
it was funny to see the female host looking at a picture from 1988 at the Paisley Park wall.....
clearly she was reading "Lovesex" on the sleave of Prince jacket (the last letter "y" missing on the picture)...
and what she said was: "Love sex that's my jam",
she did not know about Lovesexy!
I already said this
FragileUndertow said:
She said " Love Sex" thats my jam
We both noticed that.... then... it's funny and embarrassing, right? Prince 4Ever. |

Hope y'all realize what a fuck Prince is by now. And he gives not 1 fuuuuuuuuuuuuck about his fans Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

The host reminded me of the host of The Ryde Dyvine TV special back in the day so no surprise on how awkward she was but her lack of knowledge was excruciating for fans.
The song in the acoustic video that sounded like Dylan was fantastic. Need more of that!
The 2 Prince songs that Josh played in the studio were great! B-Sides Please!!
I couldn't give 2 fks about 3rdeyegirl's wardrobe...
NPGQ sounded great but I'd be more interested in them if Prince was playing with them.
Pretzelbodylogic was sloppy and the mix was bad.
What's My Name was unexpected and rocked. Who the hell's Kendrick Sumethinorother?
Thanful & Thoughtful was really good. Glad it wasn't Everyday People. Wish it was a Prince song.
Wish Prince & 3rdeyegirl's set was mixed better and sounded as good as NPGQ's set
Should of been 3 songs from the new albums. That would have made sense. But whatevs.
Worth it for: acoustic song, Revelation(?), The Ex's Face(?). I would buy all 3 of these tracks right this second... if they were for sale.
