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

@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.
