I feel so bad for the people that never got to actually experience a concert. I cannot imagine just standing there with thousands of others just holding a phone out / facetiming someone instead of getting lost in the moment. My best concert memories were all before smart phones came out. Side note, I also worked as a medic at a major live concert venue so I've been at a TON of concerts / music festivals.

Prince because my favorite artist of all time from the first moment I heard his music back in 1980. While I believe he was a good guitarist at first who became great, I don’t think he is the greatest ever. Saying who that really is, is a tough thing to begin with. I think he deserves to be in the conversation again because of how great I think he became over the years.

Today is 03/16/24. Almost 40 years to the day of this performance. I remember it like it was yesterday, I was 10 years old. My sister won tickets to this show on the radio and she chose me to go with her. It was pure magic. There was so much love and emotion in that stadium it was absolutely amazing. There were no wars, no fights, no bickering or arguing amongst anyone, nothing but love... No other artist brought so many people of so many different cultures together like Prince did... You will forever be missed Prince Rogers Nelson

he's a complete copycat of Jimi Hendrix. The thing is if you weren't born early enough, you didn't listen to certain albums, you wouldn't know that.

@@PurpleSupernova That’s absolutely nonsensical. Prince and Hendrix had a _completely different_ sound & style. There are a million and one Guitarists that sound just like Hendrix; _Prince_ isn’t one of them. Nobody has ever heard a Prince solo-and mistaken it for Jimi Hendrix.

@@PurpleSupernova Copy or inspired by? Let's be honest about it that anyone who plays blues could be said to be copycats. I watched a video of him playing with other famous guitarists on stage. They were jamming together and he was amazing. Didn't sound like Prince as we would recognise him.

As a Musician I love metal and all the music forms and I especially enjoy listening and playing with metal heads. I also love drinking and smoking with yall in convo where alot of you say things like what you stated. Because I always wonder what fan of a certain subgenre will think of "this" or "that". In this case, what a metal fan thinks of Prince. As far as musicianship goes, Prince is an above average standard. Alot of us can play more than 1 instrument but to do it on the level of Prince......even RARER.

Man, you're speaking the truth. I remember seeing Prince open for Rick James like it was yesterday. Even then, you could feel that electric energy, that raw talent just waiting to explode onto the world stage. He was more than just an opener that night; he signaled the future of music. When you see someone make a guitar talk like he did, you know you're witnessing a genius. The man was a prophet in purple, and every time I hear one of his songs, I'm taken back to that moment. You're right; Prince's legacy is immortal. His music, his artistry-they've carved out a space that no one else can fill. Rest in power, indeed.

Just sitting here with mouth open. Didn't move for the last minutes, just got goosebumps all around and tears start to roll. Nearly forgot to swallow and to breathe and was about to drool on the desk. How would you describe something like this to others without sound and video? This is so raw, so passionate, so, well, intimidating because of sheer talent and genius and somehow down to what anything in universe is all about. It's hard to find words for this. So raw, so passionate, so incredible skillful, that it marks and expands somehow the borders of human beings, as no human being could transport that in a ridiculous suit with a ridiculous guitar, but when you are Prince everything falls in place and it feels as natural as it can be. This is way beyond, what any other person I've ever heard of on earth could do. Never seen anything like this and most probably never will. Whoever this strange, little man was: He was much more than a man,., He was Prince. And whatever that is, is more, than we deserved. I feel like every cell of my useless existence is loaded now with his energy. Still. Sometimes he made me think, he is an evolutionary proof of concept of Human 2.0. And although I wrote all this crazy stuff, I still feel speechless. And when I look at this next time, it'll be the same. And again. And again. This will last for ages.

I asked if I could help him and he was a bit hesitant at first, but gave in. When we walked, he told me, that he was 93 years old. He's doing all the house chores, he has a small garden that are kept pristine. Buying groceries are hard for him because he has to carry things home, so I plan on buying him a grocery caddy.
