Prince - "live" concert - in your backyard - YOU get to pick the songs he plays....

It's great to be a member of Prince.org, this is my very first post!


This idea popped into my head last week, so I decided to sign up here to share:


I would love to see a concert put on by Prince, but you get to pick his playlist. Old songs, New songs, Official songs, or Unreleased songs... if you pick a cover song, make sure he's done it at least once, somewhere...


What will be his opening number, will there be a slow section, a dance section, a dirty song section?


Please list your playlist as one song per line (for easy reading) and please limit "your" custom Prince show to about an hour and a half.


I'll post my show after I ponder it myself. Have some fun with this!

Although this wasn't easy, it is a bit therapeutic. I personally enjoy seeing everyone's taste in his music when you set up the show. The sing-a-long songs, the funky beats, the catchy lyrics. I like the idea of The Revolution on stage with him too. I'm guessing only true Prince fans would enjoy my line-up.

If he was in my back yard, I would have him creosote my fence, do some light weeding then mow the grass.

If he wanted to sing whilst doing so that's fine but the above tasks should remain his priority.

I see way too much old and released stuff that has been done dozens of times.

Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.

If Prince was coming to my house, he could play and do whatever he wants lololol.

I'll make him a great vegetarian meal, keep his pasta from burning and make him laugh while he sets up his equipment smile

.

Anything.

Maybe a full Jimmy Hendrix album, or maybe some Black Sabbath.

If it has to be Prince:
Stuff that he either ignores too much or plays in the wrong way. (no 'slow' versions for me, no sampler set)

Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.
