Post by: jettawreck on April 21, 2016, 07:18:49 PM: There was a lot more to him than most will ever know (self included), and while I wasn't initially a big fan of much of his music style, I became appreciative of much of what he wrote for many others and how he maintained his personal and artistic vision. Stood up to the recording industry for artists who came to work their craft at his studio. And, he did most of it at home in Minnesota.
Truly talented musician and writer. And a true shredder of guitars.
Until we meet again.
Prince Rogers Nelson
1958-2016.

Post by: Conniesaki on April 22, 2016, 08:13:16 AM: I've got over 30 Prince songs on my iPod and have enjoyed his music since the mid 80's ... but I like dark humor, too.

So ... * * * WARNING - DARK HUMOR ALERT * * *

Will he be buried in a Little Red Cas-ket?

Given his flamboyancy, wouldn't be all that surprised if they sprung for an actual Corvette. ;)
