Prince Looks like Dave Chappelle Dressed up as Prince

The other day I was trying to work out an acoustic guitar version of Purple Rain, so I started watching this video:

Prince and The Revolution: Purple Rain

It starts slow, but it gets really good. The first thing that I thought of was how much Prince looks like Dave Chappelle dressed up like Prince:

Prince versus Charlie Murphy

It's basically the best reverse impression I've seen in a while. I kind of wonder how Prince picked people for his posse. Were they childhood friends? Other musicians? Basketball players? Dudes who like to wear clothing from the women's section of a department store? There are a lot of awkward looks between Prince, his bandmates and the audience. I really like that.

Still haven't figured out how to acoustify this beast. Let me know if you have any suggestions.
