Hey, where is the cloud guitar???

My only complaint about the new tour? What's with that blue (plain lookin') guitar? Kinda looks like the guitar Wendy used to play...Anyways anyone know when the cloud guitar was last seen? Where is it?

I wondered this too, and then realized:

I think Prince is trying to appear as a more "normal" musician. Please excuse that word, but it's all I could come up with.

My point: the Cloud Guitar and the Symbol Guitar are kinda like props, and they're more about "flash" than "performance". I think he's trying to redirect people's attention away from the guitar and more toward the guitar playing . . .

I'm not too keen on the blue Stratocaster either, but I love the Hohner Telecaster!

Wierd, he DID pull out Habibi at the L.A. show . . .
