Have 2 admit that i don't know of many artists who can still play so damn well live- especially after all these years. P is a genius. Nothing gets me more upset than these 'artists' who go in the studio and then cannot recapture any of the energy live.

IMO Prince is the opposite as he can't recapture the energy of his live shows in the studio.

Maybe I should add that when u listen 2 a prince cd and then see him live, u r not disappointed. U want more and more. Same goes 4 someone like Carlos Santana. This is the magic. This is the real music.

Some great shows. Apart 4rom P and Santana, I have seen Sade and MJackson. All great on stage. Anyone care 2 add 2 this very short list?

I recently saw Keith Sweat, shivers...
very funky

man u want a whole list...?

i gotta catch him live 4sho. I recently saw the Santana show and i gotta say that most of the people were terrible. They just stood there. Man if u stand and do nothin' when Santana is playing u gotta question why ur there i think. Hell even the heads were still. No movement. Dead bunch.

keep goin' with that list lovemachine:)

I mostly agree. I wish Prince would just cut loose in the studio. A lot of his 90's stuff sounded overproduced. And how much tighter did the SOTT concert film sound compared to the studio album.

TRC has more of a live feel to it.

This is one of the great mysteries of my life.

MJ? Maybe twenty years ago. Too much plastic and outdated choreography to be interesting.

Springsteen & INXS kicked my ass so far this year.

my fave band & one of my fave solo artists (but with E*STREET ... they were all just amazing,what an xperience!)

yet 2 c Prince in person (getcha rainbow ass 2 australia ya bloody midget!)
but bootlegs give me chills & get me justacreamin'

Damn. I feel the pain aus neighbour. How long has it been since he was here? I heard 1992? Every1 thought he was gonna stop over last year...but no:((( Oh yeah, INXS rocked. Always. Esp when Mike was 'round.

I heard that Jamiroquai was great. Shame i missed it like many others. If only i had a money machine. A time machine would go well 2))

I keep on playing Rave on DVD. That sort of keeps me goin' waiting 2 c it 4 real. I really love this DVD. Not like the bad 1 that Lenny released.

Jon Stevens kicks ass.

check that site 4 my personal pix in the Files section of the gig(front row,yay!) & me meeting the band.
ps: their new stuff is great,the new album will b excellent!.

as4Lenny's dvd... i have it & i love the doco' stuff...
but it ends quite abruptly.
u dont really see it coming,which is a shame.

I like the Lenny DVD but was disappointed because it could have been more. I like the doco but i would have preffered 2 c the whole concert alone without anything overlayed on top. The rest should have been an xtra. The bonus is ofcourse great but don't mess with the concert. Leave it like the people @ the show saw it.
