Meh. I said it then and I'll say it now. Didn't do much for me.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

This was really special: all that rain and thunder really made this performance intense.

I was afraid a lightening would hit Prince on stage while the whole world (some of it..) was watching it.

Thanks to God, that didn't happen... wink

I loved this performance from start to finish, out-of-tune guitar and all. I thought it was great.

My son was just talking about this today. He said that Prince's performance was "outstanding" during that Superbowl show, and how it just happened to rain that night, while Prince sang "Purple Rain".

It really introduced us young kids to his absurd talent & was truely inspiring.

But the explosive coda was "Purple Rain," which had the stadium full of testosterone-pumped football fanatics waving their arms and howling in falsetto.

biggrin love it

No one can touch Prince when he is on his game...NO ONE!

I was sooo happy to be there...one of my fondest memories ever. I was so damn proud of him that you would think I gave birth to him. lol
Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

I'll never forget Prince's face during the rehearsals because when Prince is truly happy his face lights up like a 5 year old with a new bike and it's just the sweetest thing, I tell ya!

He was really into it and it showed.

U guys might think I'm crazy, but the strangest thing happened to me that night Prince played the Superbowl.

I was baking a small clay guitar. This particular guitar was red white and blue...It was the first time I had totally ruined a guitar...It was the 2cd quarter of the game. Before Prince went on, I took it out of the oven and it was fried, burnt and bubbled...Kinda cool in a way...but then the rain got harder, and I worried about Prince playing in the rain...and I prayed so hard that Prince would be okay.

I was so happy 4 Prince that night, and so happy to see him get throught the night without getting shocked or anything...

I know, somewhere on the line of strange connections...Prince's possible shock ended up in my house...My clay guitar caught it. cool

Let some people tell it, all we do around here is "hate on Prince" because there are people here WHO WILL tell it like it is, no matter what and make no apologies about it! What they refuse to acknowledge though, is we're just as passionate and honest, when it comes to giving Prince his props, when he truly deserves them!

That was a very fun night on the Org! cool
