RIP Prince

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

RIP, Purple Poet.

We're going to need a new RIP forum soon.

Mercilessly mocked. Never let it get to him. He just did what he did & dared to be different.
Complete musical genius.

There's one hell of a gig waiting for us in the afterlife

Can't claim to have been a fan, although I did like When Doves Cry, but still.

The reaper's really got in for celebs this year.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

Man, this is an awful year. Lemmy, Bowie, Hag, and now Prince? Unreal. Pretty much everyone who influenced me as an artist is getting it in the neck (watch out Andrew, Gary, and the Koller bros.!).

He was a flat-out genius. I love his guitar playing. One of the greats.

It's not even half of this year and we lost already few icons. There must be something strange in the air.
Can't call myself a fan or even follower of Prince, but he was unique as artist.
