MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO @ THE HIGHLINE BALLROOM 6/15/11

I attended the show tonight and here's the setlist.

ALL THE CRITICS LOVE U IN NEW YORK

DIRTY MIND

IRRESISTIBLE BITCH

CONTROVERSY

SIGN O THE TIMES

SOMETHING IN THE WATER(DOES NOT COMPUTE)

ANNIE CHRISTIAN

POP LIFE

LADY CAB DRIVER

LET'S GO CRAZY

I WOULD DIE 4 U

PURPLE RAIN

I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER

Pretty much a raw, funky set. The surprises came in the slowed down arrangements of I Would Die 4 U, Purple Rain & I wanna Be Your Lover. Very much in Meshell's own slow track style. The audience seemed to enjoy her interpretations and she made sure to let us know these were songs that made her want to play music.

Note : As someone who attended the W2A shows in NYC I find it absolutely amazing that Meshell included 2 songs in her set that most fans say Prince should retire(Let's Go Crazy & Purple Rain). It says a lot that these songs mean something to another artist and are not considered overdone or tired.
