Wow

That was the most amazing musical experience of my entire lifetime. Prince definitely is "The Man". He knows it, and points it out quite often. But he's earned it. Its not cocky at all - it just is. The sky is blue, people breathe, and Prince is the Man.

OK, the show was so good, that Brian (not a Prince fan, and not a Funk music fan at all) was singing and dancing. Ponder that one!

It was basically like a 3 hour jam session with solos, acoustic sets, dancing, bringing the audience up on stage, connecting in the most awesome way with said audience, and rocking so hard that as he said "Nobody would be able to play music there again". Damn!

He of course took the opportunity to bash Warner Brothers, to emphasize the importance of "Real Music" (versus MTV or radio). At the end there was a little reference to look to God to help you out in your life. Considering he's a Jehovah's Witness, I'd expected something like that (and was suprised that it only took up a fleeting moment).

Yay yay yay!

Can we have a dinner party (you, me, Bunnyboi and Xany) where nothing but Prince is played?

Or will that drive the menfolk crazy?

that's sounds so cool!!! so many people misunderstood the whole "i'm a Symbol" thing that i think they wrote him off as a musician, too. he's a fantastic musician and i've always liked (most of) his stuff.

yay for you for going and being there! glad you had a great time!
