My wife and I recently returned from a vacation in Scotland. We visited cathedrals, castles, the countryside, and the capital, Edinburgh. I asked at least five people where I could go see some live rock in a small setting while in the city. I created a list and visited the websites. Nothing. One venue did not even have a single booking for the month of July! Oh well. While we were in Scotland, a musical festival called Hop Farm took place in Kent, England, and Prince headlined. Of course, he received a stellar review: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2011/jul/04/hop-farm-festival-prince-review
Personally, I have never forgotten the intense quality of Prince’s guitar virtuosity which was on display at the 2007 Super Bowl. Prince should be the halftime performer for every Super Bowl, including the one where the Vikings emerge as victors.
