Possibly the best thing about seeing Prince live on stage is the show was always *intensely* interactive.

@octothorpe so much patchouli...
-
@Eggfreckles I won't tell you what I'm wearing today
-
@octothorpe @Eggfreckles If it's not back in fashion yet, just wait until next week. I've been seeing girls and women back to wearing shrinks. No idea of how widespread that terminology but they are basically the crocheted vests that look like vest forms of the crocheted squares made into afghans. When I was a kid, it was all the fashion to make our own and now, fashion again.

@octothorpe what would Bill say?
-
@octothorpe folks singin' off-key and all, but they knew every word.
-
@CStamp @Eggfreckles oh, I was talking about scent.
(One of the main notes is pachouli).
-
@deliberately_me I mean, a buncha white boys from madchester, so…
-
@octothorpe @Eggfreckles Oh, sorry, <looks up>, used as mosquito repellent, though not proven to work; hippies use it to the smell of marijuana. Sounds...lovely.
-
@Eggfreckles he seems to like it. (Ok, it’s Tom Ford’s Beau De Jour)
-
@CStamp @Eggfreckles it doesn’t smell like marijuana at all. It’s got an earthiness but also has some lift.
-
It was always great to see him inspired, reacting to the energy in the room.
Seen many a concert, but you knew you were in for a special aftershow when he lay down on the floor when he was overwhelmed cuz it was just too much...
-
@hamsterhuey IT AIN’T OVER!!
-
@hamsterhuey and I totally envied that man’s energy. When you *start* a show at 2am… Yowza!
-
Whenever I feel let down by the Estate I play the extended 17 Days and hope for better days.
The moment I heard it for the first time made me weak in the knees; that moment when it is NOT faded away and goes into extra time (@ 4:08) is sooooo sublime to me, still. -
@hamsterhuey 17 Days is top 5 for sure. It’s so perfect.
