Prince' SB halftime show was 10 years ago today

[IronEagle]

When he was told it was going to be pouring rain, he said he hoped it could rain harder. I suppose his his guitars were wireless but there had to be a little danger of electrical problems in those conditions. Also note his accompanying dancers are wearing high heels.

RIP Prince. One of the greatest in all time, IMO.

And this is the video that queues up after that one on YouTube

Wow.

[McCarthy12]

That's one of the best ever. I like watching the faces of everyone else while he rips.

[IronEagle]

Interesting that NFL has blocked the video. but it's available on YouTube.

Doesn't matter, IMO Prince is one of the 10 greatest electric guitar players ever.
(We can argue about who the best is)

I put acoustic/flamenco guitarists in a different category. Separate argument.

[Drama Queen]

You're forgetting that private show 3I' momma and that Mexican donkey put on for an after party 6 years ago.

Going to Sharkey's for lunch next weekend

The Best Halftime Show?

The marching bands of Super Bowl I -- a football game without marching bands at halftime is like Christmas without Santa Claus.

(I'm only half kidding)

You should also have separate categories for jazz, blues and country ... although there is obviously cross over.

EDITED TO ADD (after re-reading what you wrote) - Unless you did not mean rock electric and meant ALL electric ... if you meant every guy playing electric guitar, I think you're going to have a more intense argument.

Michael Jackson and Prince. 1a. 1b. Everything else is distant

We can open it up to all electric guitar players and I believe Prince would be a contender for the top 10.

Just rewatched Michael Jackson on YouTube. That was quite the performance.
