I thought it was a good show, I didn't like it, he is a good entertainer, not my style, but good. That stage and guitar was kickass nonetheless. I had a good buddy of mine what drove down there to be a stagehand for it.

All these queers that wanna censor everything and have their kids growing up in a perfect bubble are killing the world of fun, little by little, day by day. Remember the kid that was always told not to stick the penny in the light socket????? You know he had to do it when nobody was looking, and will never do it again. Same goes with this situation. Kids will learn what is right and wrong, let them make mistakes to build character and figure out who they are.

My .02 anyway

My god that guitar looks just like a big floppy kawk. How could they put that on a cable network. The gall of some people.

Thats it, my kids are no longer going to watch anything on TV. Unless of course its bible stories cause there was no violence or *** in the bible.

Does anyone else feel like we're regressing? It seems that I saw/heard a lot of "mature" things as a kid (especially thanks to Mortal Kombat) but I didn't turn out scarred. Seems like the people who are now parents and pushing for more censorship were those who likely opposed it at one point and forgot what it was like being young. Hell, when I listen to songs I used to like when I was little that apparently are "provoking" I think "dang, this is kinda bad for a 10 year old to have heard". But I didn't know what most of that music meant back then...I just liked it and I turned out fine.
Now, outright cussing like a sailor, etc I can understand. I just think people are reaching too far nowadays. If you don't make stuff this like this a big deal, then it isn't a big deal. I'm hope I'm not that ghey when I become a parent.

lol. I can relate. My first cd's i ever got (when i was like 8 and had no idea what was going on in the music) were: Sublime - Sublime, Everlast - Whitey Ford Sings the Blues, Everclear - So Much For The Afterglow, and something else, i cant remember... either way, all those were either blatantly suggestive, or more subtley suggestive and im okay.

I didn't even notice the suggestive guitar. Paid no attention whatsoever to the half-time show.

Dude dont knock on Prince. I mean yeah he dresses up and isnt a gimmick, he is like that in real life as well. Thing is he is married and has kids and everything, so not like is tottally ghey. If he is bi, then hey, that is his thing, but he is far from being ghey.

Also I thought that performance rocked and was one of the better half time shows they have had in a long time. The guy truely is an artist.

Yes, I am a big fan of his music, but cmon, his performance was very good if you ask me. Not to mention it was raining like cats and dogs out their. I thought it was very fitting for the Purple Rain song though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

jesus. when you play a guitar behind a sheet casting a shadow, thats pretty much what you are going to see.

What I wanna know is....is he Prince or the Artist Formerly Known as Prince or The Artist? If he's Prince again that would make him formerly known as The Artist as formerly known as The Artist Formerly Known as Prince........Right? Whew that's confusing.
