    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.

    good on you for the kidney donation. you rule.
    Totally agree.

    I would love to hear them cover "The Ladder" on a boot from tonight's show.

    I was extremely privileged to have seen him perform multiple times. Always seemed like he would live forever. Easily one of the greatest guitar players to have ever lived. "Genius" may be a term tossed around too loosely, but it truly fit Prince. Can't describe how gutted I am by this loss. Gone way, way too soon.

    One of the all time greats for sure - such range in musical ability and an effortlessly fantastic live performer.

    Way too early to speculate but one can only dream about what's in his music vaults/archives.

    He was on my bucket list of people to see and I'm so glad I went to his show in DC last summer

    I know this sounds crazy, it's hard to describe but I just don't believe it. I can't wrap my head around this. When Bowie died I was shocked but I believed it, today it just doesn't seem real. I'm selfishly hoping this is some sort of terrible prank. Just gone way too soon and seemed like he was indestructible, and he would die when he decided. RIP
