Although the strings were low in the mix on the Grammies, it was cool to see P backed by a string section. I think they were live, although I guess it's possible they were pre-recorded.

I would love to see him play a full (one-off?) concert using a full string section, professionally recorded for DVD and possibly CD release.

Any other thoughts on the live strings last night?

If he plans on going the retiring-the-hits-dramaqueen-route, he could end that tour
in a stylish venue (i.e. Royal Albert Hall) and play a show with fully orchestrated songs.

Of course not every song would work that way, some caution is required, but it would add
a new element to the rather played-out songs. And a DVD seems a logical step.

I am not too sure it is funky enough for him, but it is interesting nonetheless.

That was a plus for me... live strings.. who would have thought.

First time he's played with live strings? Last time I checked the Guitar was a stringed instrument.

Goodness...I still get goosebumps when I flashback to him being on the stage!! Then everything deadens when I See Beyonce with that hairy dress come flouncing on the stage
