Actually.

Prince somehow improved in my personal pantheon after watching this. He has some intense intellectual swagger.

She likes Train, Rob Thomas, and that type of music from late 90s/early 2000s. That music brings memories of a younger me, my wife and my sons. When those old timers told me enjoy every minute and don’t blink, they were right. All my kids are adults now and I’m about to be 50. It seems like yesterday it was 2000.

It's crazy.

Rob Thomas was the Matchbox 20 guy? Or 3 Doors Down. Both were exceptional bands and voices.

I am officially Prince spamming tonight

The relentless downpour was terrible news for a production crew responsible for delivering a flawless live outdoor performance of epic proportions, not to mention four separate live electric guitars for the King of Paisley Park himself- the legendary performer, virtuoso guitarist, and prodigious songwriter, Prince.

“Put me on the phone with Prince,” said television and live event producer Don Mischer, rallying his production team later that stormy morning.

“Now, I want you know that it’s raining,” Mischer told Prince on the phone.

“Yes, it’s raining,” answered the performer.

“And are you okay?” Mischer wanted to know.

The Purple One, the artist formerly and forever to be known as Prince, had only one question:

“Can you make it rain harder?”

How Prince, and his incredibly talented dancers, managed to perform on a very wet, slick tile floor, in heels, is a question for the ages. Under conditions in which other performers might have backed out, or at least changed their set, Prince- and his band- refused to let the fans down.

The show went on.

“That Prince set is so wild,” says senior NYT music critic Jon Pareles, “he does other people’s songs, he’s not promoting himself. He’s just making music. It’s profound and it’s loud and it’s funky. It’s just one performer, shaking the entire world.”

He was Matchbox 20.

Hawg….you would have liked the younger me. I wasn’t as grumpy. The thing that keeps me going is my beautiful wife. I guess to be all sappy, my wife after 27 yrs still makes my heart melt. I hope that feeling never goes away.
