While my guitar gently weeps...
Feb. 9th, 2006 07:35 pmApparently last year Prince and George Harrison were admitted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. At the induction ceremony they had a bunch of people up on stage covering While My Guitar Gently Weeps, with Tom Petty doing the vocals and Prince doing the Clapton guitar bits.
Go watch the video now. Or download a slightly better version here.
Prince's guitar doesn't weep though, it shreds. I wish everybody else on stage would have shut up so I could here Prince better. Prince should go on tour with just his guitar.
Not only does he play the fuck out of that guitar, he is a total badass while doing it. That's showmanship, baby. I love the end! Where did it go?!
That kid on the stage is George Harrison's son. Or so they say. Personally, I think it's his clone. They have the other 3 clones hidden away for now. Soon, though, there will be a reunion tour to end all reunion tours.
If that taste of Prince wasn't enough, here is another clip of him on SNL a little while ago. I never heard the song he sing/plays, but once again he totally slays with that axe. He does all the guitar hero stuff.
