A little poofier than I prefer
Apologies if this has been done before, but it didn't pop up readily in the search bar. So here we go...
What's the best live performance in rock history? Some say Queen's set at LiveAid. Some say The Who playing A Quick One at The Rolling Stone's Rock 'n Roll Circus. I love both of the those performances.
But I'm going to nominate Prince's Superbowl XLI Halftime Show. The legend goes that his stage producer told him before the game that they might have to cancel the halftime show due to a tropical storm warning. Prince's response - "No. Make it rain harder!" And it did! I don't think rock and roll ever got as epic as Prince wailing on his guitar, playing Purple Rain in a downpour of purple rain. Incredible!
What says the Barber Shop? Hendrix at Monterey? The Beatles' "Rooftop Concert"? Dylan's "Judas" show? Let's hear it. Bonus points for something we can actually go watch on Youtube. I mean, it would have been cool to be in the front row of The Cavern Club when The Beatles played Love Me Do for the first time ever. But, c'mon...
