Prince Practically Perfect at Coachella

Prince and Sheila E


They say Prince gave one of the most potent show closers of the three-day event the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has ever, and will ever know.

And I believe it.

I'm a big fan of Prince.

Although, not like this....


"He thinks he's Jesus!" uttered a stunned young observer as Prince -- who did look rather divine in a gold-sequined white tunic and pants -- offered up a particularly rapturous guitar solo early on in his headlining appearance Saturday at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. This fan was obviously a new member of the Minneapolis master's flock."


No, I don’t think Prince is “devine.”

But I think he’s a pure talent.

Nobody makes a musical performance look easier than Prince.

And nobody has moves and attitude better than Morris Day and Jerome!

That's so true, Scott.

It looked like a great concert.  There were quite a few videos on YouTube from the concert, but they have all been removed for copyright.  Also, Prince won't allow any videos on YouTube anymore.  You can only find a few from his old days.
