I for one find it cool that he rides for the Cars ("Let's Go")....I also like the fact that he pulls out a Dylan tune and does some Earth Wind & Fire (when I saw him three years ago he did "Can't Hide Love"...shit was epic)...And doing Sylveter is about as obscure as you can get...

But I do like your idea about Prince doing a covers show...that way he could cover more ground...
