Prince Oscar Night Aftershow Club Avalon, Hollywood 2-3-09


As stated at the top of the forum:

NO TROLL THREADS! NO SOLICITING FOR BOOTLEGS! Discussion is fine, so long as the bootleg is not being promoted e.g. pre-release; requests/offers to share or copy, and links to download or bootleg sites are not. Posting Prince and associated artist videos from sites such as YouTube is also not allowed. Posts of this nature will be deleted and repeat offenders will be first warned, and then banned. Troll threads, fake tracklists, and attention seeking rumor threads will be also be swiftly dealt with. These rules are strictly enforced! ------ luv4u

**********************************************



It's either Soundboard or a super amazzzing Audience recorded show...

Seems like it was the Coachella band with Ce Ce on the drums

Let's pray more shows like this find their way to our ears!! wink

I would post a review but I haven't finished listening to it yet wink

so far Let's Go sounds amazzzing

At the end of Come Together Prince starts bantering back and forth with the audience...

(Audience: 'Break it down!')

Prince: I DON'T WANT NOBODY ELSE TO HEAR THE SOUND

(Audience: 'Break it down!')

Prince: I DON'T WANT NOBODY ELSE TO HEAR THE SOUND

(Audience: 'Break it down!')

Prince: I DON'T WANT NOBODY ELSE TO HEAR THE SOUND

and then BOOM! he kicks into Shhh...

all the chicken scratch guitar during this track is fantastic!!!

Druing the end of Come Together features Prince playing chicken scratch on the guitar

with Ce Ce varying and srating and stopping and speeding up and slowing down the beat

Priceless!!!

OMG!!! The guitar highlight so far may be his playing on BROWN SKIN

Yes, BROWN SKIN!!!

I never appreciated BROWN SKIN... until now!

WOW!

Jaw-dropping Sanatana-esque feathering of those guitar string during BROWN SKIN

guaranteed will make you ask, 'Wait, Did he just do that on BROWN SKIN??' wink

the whole 1st part of the show is, dare I say it, all set up for BROWN SKIN!

It starts from Come Together when he starts singing lines to Shhh

From Shhh is the amazing seque into Baby Love where he stops suddenly

so you're left wondering where hi gonna take you and then

BOOM the guitar playing on BROWN SKIN is the highlight of the first part of the show

He then starts the second part of show with Stratus which is a great interlude before...

going into a spot on Mic Jagger impression that will make everyone in the org smile smile

Honky Tonk Woman could be the first time I've ever liked Shelby's voice

Boy she really screamsings the mic on the intro to this one nicely

I like it better when he covers the song on guitar but the horns and piano are nice a nice change

but unfortunately he has Liv Warfield on When Will We Be Paid

Prince does a gospel version of this song and it's a crying shame

His studio version of this song is in my opinion one of his best in the past 10 years

but here he features Liz Warfield on vocals and it just doesn't do it for me...

this would be the time in the show where I would go to the bathroom if you know what I'm saying

then he asks what the crowd whats they would like

and everyone pretty much replies they want rock n roll

so then he does a rock n roll cover (it sounds familiar, I'm pretty sure it's a cover)

of a song called The Middle (according to the liner notes)... please someone help me here

I don't know if that's the real name of the song but it sure sounds familiar

he stamps his guitar on it towards the end but this song doesn't grab me so much

and I think Prince feels the same way because he cuts it off (on the 1!)

and starts playing the Coachella intro to the Bird

he says Morris' name as if he is there but it's actually Prince on the vocals

The stage set up was bare bones. It also seemed like Prince wasnt really into it as it was not a big turn out. Hell, people were tired as it was announced in the afternoon and people were waiing in line from around 4 to 1 a.m. when they began to let us in. It was like being performed at the local Y for real. He wanted sbacon to come up and sing Glamorous Life but she was too shy so he took over and sang the verses. He made mention of a song (Ol Skool Company?) being played at "houseparties" alluding to the recent house party where he invited some fans to being in the audience. Though it was a cool show it felt like it was under advertised (it was). He didnt come out for an encore even though we screamed for him to. To no avail.

Oh that's too bad...

I wish I was there

I live in Hollywood but somehow missed the afternoon announcement

The Capital Records building is right across the street. It was a real strange place for a concert . I thnk there were issues securing the House Of Blues that night.

Yeah Cece pretty much nailed Sssh that night. Much better than the Coachella performance. The audio could use a little tweaking, but it sounds great for an audience recording. And the performance was..wow, just wow.

I don't remember reading that Prince covered The Middle by Jimmy Eat World, and it's kinda freaking me out. It actually sounds fantastic! Can't wait to give this show a proper listen.
