    We are all getting old. Our musicians are dying.

    Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to get thru this thing called life. Electric word life it means forever but that's a mighty long so I'm here to tell you: there's something else. The afterworld. A world of neverending happiness, where you can always see the sun, day or night...

    PJ, please play a tribute to Prince!

    What a bummer. I am sure Pearl Jam will play something in his honor tonight. I wonder what song of his they would choose....

    Can Ed pull off "Kiss"?
    I could definitely see that as a daughtere tag.

    So horribly sad and such a loss. One of the top ten shows/performers I ever saw. Had the best super bowl performance. Hope PJ honors him some how tonight. Foo Fighters have an awesome Darling Nikki. RIP Prince
    well, fuckers, he still stands

    After watching Prince unleash in the video posted above, 'while my guitar gently weeps" would be an amazing tribute and Mike could just take off on another plane.Prince was incomparable for sure.gone too soon.

    There is one thing I always wanted to experience. That I dreamed about experiencing. Me being at a Prince show & him starting out with Let's Go Crazy. I could see it in my head. But now I never will. I am heartbroken. I should have gone to his show last week in ATL. I should have. But I was saving my body for PJ in Greenville, since I donated a kidney last month. I should have gone.

    Would go ballistic if they played Let's Go Crazy, one of my favorite songs all-time let alone Prince! Boom rocking the keys in the beginning. Guitar part is pretty simple and then just let Mike go nuts on solo. Make it happen fellas!

    Wouldn't be surprised if PJ plays some Prince tonight. Not sure what song they would do.

    At the very least Mike will give us the guitar solo from Purple Rain.

    This was a punch to the gut. We should have had 20 more years of music from him.

    90 shows and counting...some of my favs: Randall's Island night 2, Milwaukee '95 night 2, Hawaii '06, St Johns '05, PJ20!
