I think it's OK to be pissed off. The announcement wasn't made too long ago - just a few hours? - and people are venting. Better to do it without name-calling? Sure. But I'd be venting some had I invested in the experience, and not just financially.
Curious what tonight's show opens with.

I want the lot of you to have a drink on me. One for each year of my sobriety. Set em up bartender. 10 each of whatever they want.
And please, take a cab. Gotta go hit an AA meeting myself. You kids have fun.

What's going on NC and the LGBT. Every now and then we need just a little inconvenience.

His immense talents bolstered other musicians to great heights.....here he wrote and composed this song for a musician I had a serious crush on back in the day....

Good stuff^^^ He inspired many. I believe Stone once said that when it comes to songwriting, Prince has everyone beat. I will leave this one here for the people who don't visit the porch that often. https://youtu.be/xaboXjT1DA4 And another take on the above post... https://youtu.be/IuUDRU9-HRk
Skipped school one Thursday in 11th grade(1984) .played quarters and other drinking games,got high all afternoon with some friends,at my house. I fortunately ended up sequestered away in my room with a very attractive classmate.It was pouring rain outside and prince purple rain album was playing.oh yeah!
Good album! Good times! Cheers to Prince!

Not as great as the cat, but after trying to get into some - any - music, we turned to laughs instead.

Just getting home from the Hawks vs Blues game very drunk and very happy. There is nothing in sports I enjoy more then sticking it to anything St. LOUSEY. Game 7 on Monday night is going to be one for the ages. LET's GO HAWKS!!!! I am not ready for the special year of baseball in store for Chicago

I could try and feign happiness for them... but gawddammit... I'm envious.
Hey RR... that Foo Foghters clip is one of the coolest things in the last decade.

I dig Marvin's version.
Fuck, I just love Marvin
Ah, water. Lovely running water! The small things that give pleasure.
Nothing Compares To You

Bless you, Hedberg!
Prince gave me lots of joy through the years.
The wisdom that the old can't give away.
Home safe, buzzing from the mountains and longing for a lifelong vacation lol
Cheers!
(ie, one full week off...hrrmph!)
Cheers gambo. Sounds like it was memorable for you and your family.
Take a break chica!
Finally got Light Years in Columbia...
"There's no time to be good, or save up on life, you gotta spend it all!"
Light Years is one of my favorites. So is this - sort of related?
Great song, great cover and perfect to accompany this sweetly buzzing late Saturday afternoon.
