Are you searching for a mindless, interaction-free way to sort-of-but-not-really connect with fellow middle-aged rock and roll fans with whom you share only the loosest bonds of electronic &#8220;friendship&#8221;? You&#8217;re in luck!<\/p>\n<p>Today, we introduce a new feature here on Rock Town Hall, where we purposely sidestep all the deep, meaningful analysis and thoughtful commentary, and just go for the kind of lazy, internet-age, lowest-common-denominator commentary the world craves. In this feature, thoughtlessly titled &#8220;1 to 10,&#8221; we ask you, the reader, to simply assess the excellence of a rock artist, performance or artifact on a &#8212; yes, you&#8217;ve guessed &#8212; scale of 1 to 10. You are being asked for a number \u2014 a digit, a figure; and that is all. Having delivered your numerical verdict, you are then free to wander back to your electronic treetop to munch on fleas gathered off the backs of other internet residents you barely know. What could be easier?<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s subject for &#8220;1 to 10&#8221; analysis: the poster created for Prince&#8217;s most recent concert series in Chicago earlier this year.
