This is old footage, but still. Kinda funny, though. Footage from George Harrison's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I agree, talk about a ball hog.

I'm not a huge prince fan, but I thought that solo did the song justice.
I believe during a solo you grab the spotlight

Yeah, but a solo isn't supposed to last through the remaining choruses and finish off the song.

I had to watch it again to see if i was missing something.... nope just a great ending to a great song.
Tom Petty and the boys were enjoying the solo as much as the crowd, and the chorus at the 'end' of the song was where it should be in this case.... in the background.

Again i'm not a big fan, but I thought he did a helluva job. Emotional riffs for a song with alot of emotion in it.
Nice sound coming from that old fender strat.

But what? where? did his guitar just dissappear at the end?
Maybe he's a jerk for guitar neglect?

Actually, to me it appeared that the others were starting to get pissed near the end. I'm really not sure why Prince would be involved anyway, his presence was a little out of place for the era of the song and the other members. "Lets Go Crazy"

The song is called "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" -- not "While My Guitar Drowns Out the Rest of the Band"

To bad George Lynch wasn't there to show that wimpy guitar playing fool how to put the Axe down on those strings. In addition to kicking 100% of his a$$.
