I have seen the Purple one himself live a few times as well as attended a couple of after parties with him in attendance. I will say this show does the Purple one justice. The facial expressions and mannerism are spot on. The only critique I would give and this takes nothing from the show is the make up Morris Day's character was really thick but he did a good job as well especially with his facial expressions. Those guys played those guitars and sent chills through me I would go anywhere to see them again!
