Epic. No debate from me. It’s raining and he doesn’t miss a beat. And how appropriate with his signature song Purple Rain. Extremely underrated guitarist.

No doubt about missing out. I did see a couple drag races and there was a 1/3 mile dirt track out there as well. My uncle used to run late model stock a couple of times a month. My cousin and I where his pit crew - gophers.
Toto - Africa. These guys aren’t very well known in the states but are huge in Europe. Steve Lukather is a great guitarist and the Porcaro brothers are great musicians.
