"Black Sweat" was fine, but let's be clear, it is not in the same league as "Oh Sheila"

Michael Dorf announced today a special March 7 tribute concert at Carnegie Hall, celebrating the music of Prince, with an incredible, star-studded lineup to be revealed soon. The concert marks the ninth installment of Dorf's annual series which has raised over $700,000 to date for music education programs for underprivileged youth.Tickets for the event are onsale now at http://www.carnegieprince.com and the Carnegie Hall box office. Special limited VIP packages are also available via the website.Prince is one of the most prolific songwriters in my collection, says Dorf, and he makes my Top 10 when I think about the artists who have truly shaped modern music. In re-listening to his repertoire I realized how relevant, amazing, and danceable his work is. Carnegie Hall is going to party!Previous sold-out Carnegie concerts presented by Dorf have honored the music of such timeless artists as Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, R.E.M., Neil Young, The Who and The Rolling Stones. Each year 100% of the net proceeds from the concert are given to music education non-profits. This years recipients include: The American Symphony Orchestras Music Notes, Church Street School of Music, Young Audiences New York, FIKS (Fixing Instruments for Kids in Schools), Little Kids Rock, and the Center for Arts Education.

Those shows always sound fun. Makes me wish I was a rockstar so I could play at one.

What floors me isn't just how awesome Prince is live, but how he can simultaneously suck fermented farts in the studio.

the verse is pretty nice, but other than that doesn't even have a nice groove to ride on.

― my super interesting Kant story (DJP), Monday, 4 March 2013 19:00 (thirteen years ago)
at his shows there's always someone to catch the guitar after he tosses it in the air and walks away. in my imagination he just assumes that someone will take care of it, or better yet has never even thought about what happens to the guitar after it leaves his hands.
― queeple qua queeple (Jordan), Monday, 4 March 2013 19:04 (thirteen years ago)
if all that snapped off was the piece of the headstock that's hardly "smashed"
God catches Prince's guitars obviously

Wouldnt even sign it?! WHATADIIIIIIIIICK
― Harlem vs Alabama (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Monday, 4 March 2013 19:18 (thirteen years ago)
It looks like the guitar was supposed to travel further than it did, I think the chord got caught up on his pedal board.

"Bambi" is awesome, fuiud. i love how the first 2 albums, while obviously not as amazing as the best '80s LPs, still TOTALLY demonstrate his range from the start, the mix of slow jam ballads and screaming guitar rockers and funk workouts, it's so cool how that plurality was built in from the start (compared to a lot of artists who start with a pretty specific sound and then branch out).
"Bambi" is awesome, fuiud.
