Big fuck-up during Copenhagen aftershow from 2002

Okay, who has this boot and has sorta listened to it, but maybe not the whole thing closely?

Put on Track 17: "Prince & The Band", and listen to the deejay or whoever's playing the drum machine get WAY off, and then you hear a few measures of awkward muted erratic beats (at about :25 into the one that I have)...and then it comes back up with it's basic boom boom bah programmed drum beat and then Prince starts the rap over: "Like the rimshot on a new Roots joint..my band is tight."

How ironic though, because all the lyrics in the song are about "my band is tight," et cetera...but what a hilarious, BIG mistake!! It's almost painful to listen to...it's not cute like the whole "Still Will Stand All Time" one from Small Club(DAMN, now there were some talented female vocalists!). It's not surprising though, b/c in many areas he works with complete amateurs. I mean think about it ...if you were a musical genius who finally got freed from a contract that you realized too late was too confining for you...and you're gonna release a triple album that you've been hyping up for YEARS to show how your freedom spreads over into your music...would you fucking have KIRKY J do the drum programming? I mean FURRREAL, you can NOT justify that, except to say that Kirk was the best man at Prince's first wedding so obviously was a close friend for many years.

I'm thinking DJ Dudley must be a friend or relative too, because he SUCKS, big-time. Is that who fucks up on this Copenhagen boot? Anyone? Boris, where you at? wink

Oh yeah, totally jarring...don't it make ya cringe? I can't think of any other boot I've ever heard that has something like that on it.

The only thing I've heard that's close is the Glam Slam show in 1994 where Stevie Wonder comes out. At the beginning of Interactive, "here's a sample" the wrong beat comes in and then stops, and THEN the right part comes in. And the sample comes in right before Days of Wild of "hold" and then there's no drums, and there's a little delay and then the drums come in. Prince must have had Tommy flying over the stage or had him in a big feathery jacket and he got distracted maybe??

Prince doesn't accept mail, or I would. I guaranTEE you that if you gave me a nice set of turntables like Dudley has, and ONE WEEK of practicing, I would kick his sorry little ass. THAT'S A GUARANTEE KLAATU!!!

Klaatu, have you ever heard him spin? If not, then who are you to talk?

Besides, when someone constantly brags about how "tight" their band is and then is still doing it WHILE THEIR BAND FUCKS UP, it's damn funny. Lighten up, weirdo.
