YES!!!
Prince is, without a doubt, the funkiest soulman alive!
Too many people tend to want to judge him by the music wrote 20 years ago but, he's SO much more than that!
He's the closest thing to James Brown that we have left today!
He is an amazing songwriter and performer and, in a reader's poll in Rolling Stone (way back when it was worth reading), he tied with Frank Zappa as the most underated guitarist(s) EVER! He's that good!
I love him....and if you don't, you probably haven't given him a fair chance yet.
"3121" or "Musicology" WILL change your mind! He is simply INCREDIBLE!

This is so cool. I stated in another thread that Prince probably wouldn't be a draw for the 'Roo crowd. It looks like I was wrong.
I saw him a while back and this old rocker was greatly impressed. One of the best shows I have ever seen. If he did show, I hope he would sit in with a few other acts.

Couldn't agree more with either statement.

I would be as excited for him to headline as I have for any other Roo headliner barring Neil Young. Guitar God. Master of Funk. Can work a crowd like few others.

Bring it !
