Puts paid to Mrs TT's notion that she saw him two days ago.
He once sat outside in his limo, at a party of mine debating wether to come in. He didn't Stipe did. I was gutted.
Very sad news indeed

And now everybody hurts.

:D didn't he like your dips or had he got beef with stipe? He'd have been straight in if you lived in a townhouse in Shrewsbury, rather than a shack in cabbage town. ;)

Not a massive fan, but you sort of new he was good. Her in doors loved him though and is gutted. Watching mtv now, you forget how many good songs he did. Purple rain is fucking immense thougj

Memory goes back to the times spent with a blond Australian girl, ripped to the tits on speed, champagne and Lebanese, on a marathon shagging spree with Purple Rain playing full blast on an 80s style boom box at 3 in the morning.

Sad news . Wished I'd seen him live . Less than a year between us as well . What a talent.
RIP

Talking to Noah The Chimp in Radio City last month , asked if he'd ever seen Prince. he had. I never have and I said I think he's the only one left I really want to see. Usually found out about his goigs after or Tickmaster sold pout in 2 nanno seconds. Contemplated going to see McCartney purely because he's a Beatle but, shit news 57..

That's why you need to catch the stone roses when they play Maddison square garden, cuts. Hay needs to be made whilst the sun still shines. They may not tour again.

There are only two Prince records in my collection, both singles, both brilliant: "Little Red Corvette" and "Sign of the Times".
The funk of JB, the sensuality of MG, all wrapped up in a shiny gender-bent postmodern package.

Christ, this has been a busy thread this year.

I've seen The Stone Roses. They're taking the piss with ticket prices and what are they really offering?

Can we get back to women with spectacular breasts and noboiddy die for a while now please?

Fuck me - shocking. Never a prince fan, but even I can't deny his 'influence'. Probably knackered with playing all those fucking instruments. If he'd stuck to one, he'd still be ok.
As I am the same age, I'm starting to shit myself a bit now!!

Her in doors went to work in a purple dress. Fair dos totally out of character

First day off during the week since Christmas. I've got to move house again soon so I'm boxing stuff up all day. I was supposed to have yesterday off but was too busy so changed it to today. 30 large cardboard boxes arrived Wednesday. So I reckoned I would just have a day boxing everything up while listening to 6music. I never get the chance during the day so I was actually looking forward to it guess it's my come uppence for all the things I said......but it's prince track after prince track after prince track and talking about prince in between.
I do understand how huge he was and I get that people loved him. If your into any form of music and it means a lot to you then you feel it like a loss of family or summat. It's a part of your life. I respect that of course. Plenty more musical people than me are banding the legend and genius tag around. And fair play maybe he was. He just never spoke to me or appealed to me. Even three hours in to the princeathon I've still not heard anything that I think is genius or mind blowing. I've always found him average. It's purely about those receptive nodules in your brain isn't it. It's what appeals and what doesn't. I like how prolific he was and I like how he tried to stick it to the record labels, just not a fan that's all. But much respect to his fans that's he's been a big part of their life to. And 57 makes you shudder. I've heard the rumour it could be aids related? He was a huge little shagging machine wasn't he.

I was never into him initially but every single lass I've been out with since I was 15 has been a big fan. I grew to like him eventually. Lasses dig him don't they?
Hell's teeth its been some year so far. Maybe Corbett and Prince are snorting heaven chisel off Vicky woods mucky pillows. Bowie just watching bemused, shaking his head.
Paul Daniels likes this. But not a lot.

Well funny
