It was. Dramatic too. And he looks good in the rain. He's got to do a rain scene in a future video.

Wasn't He though?! The rain and that sillhoutte (I hope I spelled that right) was too beautiful for words.

i'm gonna go down to pier one tomorrow and see if they have some of those dove-on-a-stick things. i want some to put on my ceiling fan.

It was beautiful... and i can't believe somebody said it was to much fireworks and lighting effects... Has this person ever watched a halftime show before... Prince had no more that past performers... That's what they do during halftime..
They blow shit up !!!

I think to get a performance out like that in those weather conditions is a testament to the professionalism (and talent) of Prince and his band.

But he did appear tense for LGC certainly, and the guitar work seemed a little rushed throughout (like Fury at the BRITS as opposed to the performance of it on SNL), not quite up to the standard we know he's capable of.

Nice to see him throw in some covers there to mix it up a bit - although only PR album originals (1999 riff excepted) - another big hit from another time in his career would be nice for these big shows (like the Grammies and Brits).

That's a lot of songs to squeeze into such a short time. And damnit, I wanted to see him throw his guitar away at the end!

I'm guessing that scarf went on his head because of the rain - but it looked like it was coming apart - a brave move to just throw it off near the end. Has anybody seen Prince's hair less styled than during Purple Rain?

as spinal tap as it was, i LOVED THAT STAGE!!!!

i'm very impressed that he did a set that was totally appropriate for the mainstream/non-fan masses, but here i am, a veteran fammyfam who's seen a dozen shows and countless bootlegs, and i'm eating the halftime show UP.

it didn't matter that we've heard it all before. ol' boy pulled it off like a pro. better than a pro.

THAT'S MY NIGGA!!
We should all feel damn lucky that Prince has stayed around this long for us to enjoy. I've been a fan for 26 years, it's been a great ride, and from the way he looked tonight, it'll probably go on for another 20.

KIcked ass until his guitar level dropped at the end of Purple Rain. Surprised noone else picked up on that, must have blown a speaker or something. I thought
his performance was OUTSTANDING!!! So what if it was predictable, it's always a treat for me.
