DAMN.
All Hail His Purpleness.
(Or Turquoiseness, as it happens.)

I can't even make myself watch MJ after that.

I am beginning to think that paying $125 to see Prince in Vegas is probably worth every penny.

Those guitar solos make me want to rob a bank or something.

I agree, Michael Knight. I'm ready to hop on a plane to Vega$ right now.

On my way in to work this morning, my digital music player was set to shuffle and Prince's "7" came on and I almost wept openly.

Hey mr. Eats, I found the clip you suggested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6a7eVJNNBs

I can hardly breathe after that. I might have a seizure if it were live in front of me.

Tax returns, fellas. Tax returns are coming up. They might just take us straight to Vegas and the Artist himself.

It's Prince's guitar solo in "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" with Tom Petty and some other people, at the 2004 Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame induction.

I can hardly breathe after that. I might have a seizure if it were live in front of me.

Tax returns are coming up, fellas. They might just take us straight to Vegas and the Artist himself. I can think of no better way to spend my money right before I die of happiness.
