Agreed, that little dude rocks! It's great to have a performer who actually plays his own music instead of lipsyncing!

Just because you don't like the guy (and I personally don't much either), doesn't mean he isn't a legendary talented performer. He certainly is!
Kind of funny though, I had no idea who was going to be performing half time until it came. I was asking the wife "So who is it that's going to be playing?". She shrugged "I have no idea"?
They always make such a huge deal out of the commercials, I guess I just never caught who was playing half time.

I would have said the same thing about Janet Jackson... 10x more so.
Besides, they like to get one man/woman shows that appeal to large audiences... hince some one who has been AROUND a while. You have to admit, there just aint that many to choose from.

I just thought it was hilarious when he had that giant sheet, and his siloette. With him leaning back and having the neck of his guitar sticking out from his mid section. Reminded me of Robin Hood men in tights.
Definately not a graphic as janet, but oh so much more funny.
Do you think it was on purpose?

I thought he was pretty awful. He should have played his own songs instead of all the covers. Lets go Crazy was OK, but I had to leave when he started playing All Along the Watchtower...

Pretty sure that Prince is not the writer of All ALong the Watchtower..Among the other ones that he "sang"

He's very talented and I enjoy his voice & lyrics. I don't care much for his personality but I don't let that get in the way of enjoying his songs.

I thought he did a good job.
Liked the tempo and the involvement of the band
Did you notice he was wearing Dolphin colors; great way to be 'neutral' since they were in Miami.

prince is actually a very talented guitar player, but im not really into his music.
kind of ironic how he did purple rain in the monsoon.

He's definitely a love him or hate him performer and I'm of the former group.
I was lucky enough to sit/stand 4th row at a show a couple years ago and can honestly say it was impressive. He still works the stage like he did 20 years ago.
I think the thing on his head was to try and salvage the hair in the rain.
Everybody is entitled to their own musical taste but I agree much better than Janet!

Prince is an amazing guitar player as well as many other instruments. What most people don't know is the songs he has written for other people and pieces he has composed behind the scenes. He has his weirdness, but I have to give props where they are due. I wish I has 1/10th of his talent when it comes to music.

I am not a huge fan of Prince's music, but like Tangman said the guy is loaded with talent. He is a phenomenal guitar player. I made everyone stay silent so I could hear every lick of the half time show and I was impressed.
