2546202, Thursday 21 April with set list Posted by Rolo_Tomasi, Mon May-09-11 09:56 AM
I went to the Thursday 21 April show at the Forum. It was my fourth time in the last few years to see Prince and each time he has been brilliant. This has included two shows at the 02 arena in London and then the Saturday night headliner spot at Coachella.
I think this was my favourite show, also helped by me having a great seat.
Prince is the musical master, no-one should be able to dance like him at 53 years old, the man has moves. And the best guitarist currently alive, anyone want to argue with that?
He wasn't getting the sound he wanted for Little Red Corvette (one of my all time faves) so on the fly he got the audience to participate getting call and response from the male/female crowd. It was awesome.
The man has so many hits, its kind of fun that he'll play one of his best known tracks for 30 seconds but c'mon playing the track in full would be so much better. I don't mind if we are there for five hours! Oh an Sheila E, wow on every level.
