Prince on Jay Leno

[Tim]

Prince is to play on the Jay Leno show tonight. Got to go watch Prince.

 

[Robert]

I'm ready! I am a BIG Prince fan, so I'm really looking forward to this. He's not often on TV.

Thanks for mentioning it, Tim, otherwise I would have missed it.

 

[Robert]

Well, that was funky! Great tune!

He's one funky short person.

 

[SuperSwede]

Awesome, I gotta try to find the youtube clip later.. (theres always a youtube clip, right ? )

 

[Robert]

SS, Probably not with Prince... he's probably the person on the planet who is the most protective of his art...

 

[Tone2TheBone]

You gotta admire a person that plays solos on a Tele...clean. That's the mark of a great musician and he ripped it.

 

[Robert]

That man Prince has such control, it's amazing. He's one with his band. I admire him.

Darn, I missed it. This is the only thing I found when I searched youtube:




I am glad I can separate an artist's work from his personality. It was a national broadcast on network TV for goodness sake. I don't get people getting all upset over those types of things being re-broadast. It is not like he is going to sell copies of the telecast or anything. oke: <prince

 

[SuperSwede]

I gotta watch that show... in three weeks when they air it here

 

[Robert]

Steve, Prince is NOT like the rest of us. Not anywhere close... he lives in his own world, completely.

 

[sunvalleylaw]

Without knowing a whole lot, I kind of knew that, I suppose. Thus, I am glad I can admire his skill and music without needing to admire his choices. ancake: :AOK:

I just found out you can watch old episodes of Leno on nbc.com. The prince episode is not on yet, it looks like they put them on the web about a week behind, but it should show up if anyone is interested.

I'm a fan of his talent, but not so much his music. However, watching that - WOW, that is kick butt playing.

Where did his guitar go and could he do that with a piano?

Strange little man.
