ONA live from Vegas DVD

Got a chance to watch this again yesterday night...had some thoughts to share with you..

1) Prince looked like he was having fun. He had a good band for this tour

2) He has a great sense of humor..watch how he introduces Maceo..

3) He makes some strange faces when he sings the blues (the ride)..and when he plays guitar..

4) I'm glad evenings like this were captured for prosperity. The fans that were there (only 4000) were fortunate

i think it says something when a concert video looks and sounds as bad as that one does, and i *still* enjoy watching it over and over. i guess years of bootleggage has trained me well. lol

i bought this when it first came out, and that copy was crap, it kept cutting in and out and the sound was shit so i got rid of it. then a few months ago something made me buy it again, i think just to have it in my possession was all, but this copy is great, same show, but it sounds like a soundboard recording. niether copy was a bootleg, bought them both at wal-mart

If there ever was a missed opportunity in Prince's career, it was this one, IMO. I guess he was just to over with the whole thing already to make more than a half decent release out of this.

Judging by the production values, it was captured more for posterity than prosperity.
