CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Sad. Great musician. This year sucks so far.
Davkaus Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 This isn't even funny anymore. **** this year. Only 57, he was still touring.
OutByEaster? Posted April 21, 2016 Moderator Posted April 21, 2016 An absolute genius. This makes me very sad.
maqroll Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 There was a report last week that he was rushed to hospital after an emergency plane landing, I wonder what exactly happened. Very sad, he was a true original, a great talent. RIP

wazzap24 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Godammn, I used to love a bit of Prince and the New Power Generation back in the day. That Diamonds and Pearls album was a classic. RIP

RIP The Internet has already got a few saying it was the flu jab that killed him he suffered from epilepsy as I read it , don't know if that played a part ?
JoshVilla Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 Absolutely devastated Huge fan of his. There'll never be another like Prince. R.I.P
HanoiVillan Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 When teaching in China, we made friends with a couple from Minneapolis, and they told a story they swore blind was true. They had a friend who was walking somewhere in the city one day during a downpour, and suddenly a limousine pulls up next to him. The window rolls down, and Prince's head pops out, and he offers the guy a lift. So he got into the limo, and Prince told the driver where to go, and he was sat in the back of this limo listening to an album of his own work (I don't think we got to the bottom of which album). Soon, they arrived at the guy's destination and he thanked Prince and went to open the door, at which point Prince shouted something along the lines of 'Stop! Listen to the end of the song!' So they both sat there listening to the end of this song in a kind of awkward silence 1
maqroll Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 What I like about Prince is that he stayed true to Minnesota. Most people from a cold flyover state would get the house in Malibu or Calabasas. And who knows, maybe he had property out there. But it's always seemed like he only really lived in Minnesota. Still can't find any news about how he died.
maqroll Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 Well, looks like Prince liked his pain meds. I always thought he was kind of straight laced. These **** opioids are a real word removed.
