Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
OMFG! If you're wondering what the coolest thing we've seen all day is -- well, ahem, aside from ourselves in the mirror this morning (har-de-har!) -- it's this: Vintage clips of Prince rehearsing crica1984.
Not sure how these clips (which, be forewarned, resemble surveillance video) were procured or why/how they haven't been unceremoniously yanked from YouTube yet, but we'd like to thank the internet gods for providing us with such a rare glimpse into Prince's world just as he was entering into his prime (oh, and props to our peeps at RFT, our sister paper in St. Louis, for turning us on).
See what the gushing's about after the jump.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
