Prince

I am now officially on the Prince train. Prince is our generation’s Little Richard, and that is awesome.

Yesterday’s Superbowl Half-Time Show was flawless. The sound was incredible with a great balance in the mix. Impeccably dressed in a tailored suit and heeled boots, Prince’s guitar playing was inspiring, with a crystal clear guitar tone. With strong risks of electrical mishaps on the “symbol” stage, Prince and his band powered through the set (and the puddles) with a determination to give the audience the show they wanted to see.

He started the set off with “Let’s Go Crazy” followed by “Baby I’m a Star.” Then, Prince did a completely unexpected, but incredibly electric medley of “Proud Mary,” “All Along the Watchtower,” and “The Best of You.” Can’t you just imagine Dave Grohl jumping off his couch and screaming?
For the finale, the lights transformed to a cool shade of purple, the “symbol” guitar appeared, and as the Miami rain poured down, Prince launched into “Purple Rain” as live doves were released into the air.
