Clinton and P-Funk performed for nearly 90 minutes at the sold-out event, according to USA Today. During the weekend’s festivities, fans will be treated to “panel discussions with Prince collaborators, performances from former bandmates and a firsthand look inside the Purple One’s home.”

Shortly after Prince’s passing, Clinton spoke candidly about the superstar with Rolling Stone, stating that he was “the epitome of a rock star.”

“When you see him on stage with those people and they’re giving him props like he’s supposed to be getting, you realize, ‘Damn, this motherf**ker is all that,’” he said.
