No! I saw him at First Avenue back in the day. He also used the edit suites at the television production studio where I worked in the 90’s. He’d always come in late at night. He’d never speak directly to the editor but had a guy who spoke for him.

We just lost some tremendous talent. RIP Prince Rogers Nelson.

Wow. Damn shame. Absolute musical genius and one of the greatest artists the last 30 years. RIP.

Yes indeed. And every other instrument. But he was very underrated as a guitarist.

Prolly an aneurysm or stroke. Time waits for no man. He was swishy but talented. I liked more Prince tunes than Springsteen. Dead at age 56 the same age as Steve Jobs.

Rumors have been floating around that he’d had Aids for years. For some reason, recently he quit taking the cocktail that had been controlling it. Strange.

Prince joined Jehovah's Witnesses. They're down on medications.

Incredibly talented guy. In addition to all his other triumphs, his Super Bowl show was spectacular. This is very sad.
