Love her or not, I have to give her props for putting
100% in her performances. Prince fans are a tough
crowd.

Hi

Don't post on here too much..actually probably only twice.
Don't want to step on toes of frequent posters..but..dang gus..do ya'll have
unrealistic expectations or do ya'll have unrealistic expectations?!?!?!
It was a TV PERFORMANCE..NOT A PRIVATE CONCERT.
U DIDN'T HAVE TO GO.I know Prince didn't show up at my house or in my dreams
and demand that I attend. I attended FULLY aware of how long the wait would
be and how short the set would be. But hey it was Prince, it was free and it
was a day in NYC for me and my man.
Great way to start the weekend.
Those of u that camped out and regretted it...dummy move and totally

Suck it up and stop your whining and belly aching for Pete's sake.

By the way I forgot to mention one of my favorite parts-- at the end of
"3121" he sang "It's going down y'all... like George Bush's approval
ratings!" hahaha

And a shout out to the NYC crew holdin down up front--Kelly, U7, Jessica,
Cherrymoon(?), Largeroom/Belinda (sorry if I forgot anyone); and a big shout
out and pound to Andy for keepin it light back where we were standing...
through Andy, Beyonce spoke to me :D  (I was telling him how fly she looked
as she walked by and she stopped turned around looked at me and said "Hi!"
Of course I just looked at her in hypnotic disbelief LOL)

Re: NPNY: BUTTER review & set list

2006-06-17 Thread NuPwrSoul

To make a correction the "Break the Chains" song in the list is
actually "The Chain" (Fleetwood Mac cover).  Thnx to everyone who
id'ed it for me. :)



On 6/17/06, NuPwrSoul <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Here's my review of the Butter show...  feel free to correct any
mistakes on the set list, etc.

Show started at approx 1 a.m., ending at 3:50 a.m.

Venue was VERY SMALL.  No stage/raised platform.  Seemed like about
125 members in the NPG line (def no more than 150 in the joint).
Celebs in attendance included Nas, Kelis, Jay Z, Beyonce, P. Diddy,
Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, Stephen Hill (BET Dir of Programming),
?uestlove.

Let me say this tho, Prince & co. had to see that were it NOT for the
NPG Members who were there, the party would have been DEAD.  With few
exceptions the celebs spent their time text message each other and
their friends, talking, and just basking in the "status" of being a
VIP at a private exclusive Prince party. :roll:  The only energy from
the audience was brought by the NPGMC members!!

Here's the set list as I remember it.

Peach
Te Amo Corazon
Forever In My Life
Everyday People (Sly & Family Stone cover)
The Ride
Never Loved A Man (Aretha Franklin cover / Tamar on vox)
Love Changes (Mel'isa Morgan & Kashif cover / Tamar on vox)
Break the Chains (new song?)
Come Together (Beatles cover / Tamar & Prince on vox)
When A Man Loves A Woman (Percy Sledge cover / Tamar on vox)
Red Headed Stepchild (Tamar)
Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin) (Sly & Family Stone cover /
Tamar & Prince on vox)
Play That Funky Music (White Boy) (Wild Cherry cover / BET Director of
Programming Stephen Hill guest on vox)
Partyman

3121
Lolita
Satisfied
Black Sweat (Prince on keys & vox)
Kiss
Joy in Repetition (with Tamar song? interpolated)
Anotherloverholenyohead
If I Was Your Girlfriend
Ecstacy (Barry White cover) jam with Be Happy, The Bird (Mary J. Blige
cover / Tamar & Prince on vox, ?uestlove on drums)

Some notes:

Personnel:  Prince, Tamar, Morris, Josh, Cora, Ray (trumpet), Greg
(trumbone), ?uestlove (guest on drums), Stephen Hill (guest on vox).

There were some "undertaker" moments where Prince just went CRAZY with
the guitar.  All the songs were performed in their entirety, or event
in extended jams.  The 3121 material sounds AMAZING live.  Prince's
reinvention of some of the classics--esp Anotherlover... is a guitar
playing frenzy--it's almost heavy metal what he was doing to that
song.  He was in a very playful mood, the sound / acoustics were
amazing, his vocals were in tip top shape (some of his best vocal work
in terms of range, sustain, and timbre, in a long time), he even
danced around a bit.  Because there was no stage or raised platform,
this was truly a LISTENING experience more than a visual one, and it
was a great show.
