Well, that was interesting. Prince did a set consisting of "Let's Go Crazy", "Best of You" by the Foo Fighters, and "Purple Rain".
The "Best of You" cover elicits a ton of responses amongst the press box. Former FOXSports.com editor Andy Nesbitt, says "I want to hear Prince do a version of Metallica's "One". Just would love hearing Prince start a song with, "Darkness Imprisoning Me...Is All That I See." Meanwhile, I've got my buddy Berman texting me, "Can't they just re-play the highlights from the Jacksonville Jaguars 2006 team video or something?"
I'm actually enjoying the performance. Maybe it's like hockey. Much better live than on TV. Adande and I are rocking to "Purple Rain". Everyone's getting drenched. No one's been electrocuted yet. All in all, pretty fun little performance here out of Prince. Still would have rather heard Billy Joel do "Miami 2017".
I look towards Peter King. He's nowhere to be seen. I wanted to see him singing along, too. Sipping on a Starbucks double mocha venti latte, just taking it in. Nope. No such luck. Oh well.
Third quarter kicks off in a bit.
