Thought Scandi would have posted he'd had a good innings.
RIP
RIP
Loads more celebrities these days thanks to the telly, celeb mags and global coverage.
That's why so many are passing away.
Mind you at least we've heard of most of them up until now.
In the future, if the right hand column of the mail on-line and Hello magazine are anything to go by, there will be loads dying off that get some news coverage that I won't have a fecking clue who they were.
RIP Prince. Saw him at Hammersmith a few years back. Great show.

That right hand column is full off no bodies who get paid to wear the latest clothing and make up etc even mans make up etc so the public think they are real celebs and copy them.
You must have noticed none of them carry phones YET

Closeau knows.
also as time passes on and we get older from 40 until you reach 60 there are more famous folk to die , as they get older .
Then by the time you're 80 no one famous you know will be dying as they'll all be dead .
anyway, Rest In Peace little man

Sleeping tablets killing off the American celebs wouldn't surprise me if they were involved here too.
And FFS we've got to hear that Doves Cry song loads now as the GBP always choose the most overplayed and bland songs as their favourites from popular artists.

'Frail' Prince, 57, died at $10million estate from 'flu' after being spotted on several visits to Walgreen's pharmacy, just a week after he was rushed to hospital but told fans 'don't waste your prayers'
Prince made several trips to a Walgreen's pharmacy in the days before his death and is said to have appeared more 'frail and nervous' than usual on a visit to the store last night.

Denise Katrina Matthews died in February, this year...ex-Prince protege, musical partner, etc.
IMO, Prince was the greatest Little Richard impersonator of all times.

I remember him going up to accept an award at the Rock & Pop awards (as the Brits used to be known) surrounded by bodyguards,saying about two words before returning to his table.

Dave Chappelle did a very funny Prince basketball sketch.
Well I’ve heard of Prince and the artist formerly known as Prince. Are they the same person or different people? F*cked if I know. Seems to be a disproportionate amount of wailing over his death.
The standard chit chat desecration of a tribute thread to a genuine musical legend ffs
That's what I thought of as well Velasquez
Here's the clip of Eddie Murphy's brother Charlie telling an anecdote about Prince in the 80's..

WTF is it about this year, I commented about 2 months ago how about it all the celebs were dying, it's still continuing.
There have been a lot, but we live in a celeb culture, musicians/tv/actors, etc, would barely have existed 50, 60 years ago, and finally the world population is rising, so there are statistically bound to be more celeb deaths.
It was a genuine question Attitude Adjuster. Looked it up on Google since you didn't give the answer.
Yes, Foinavon. The same person.
I never saw him or bought any of his records, but what I saw I liked. He was good, very good. RIP.

Just watched "Purple Rain" on one of the music channels. The guitar bit at the end if rather good isn't it? 
Never took much notice of him until I saw him playing guitar live, can't remember when or where, but I thought he was mighty good.
"I like 'em fat"
"I like 'em proud"
"Ya gotta have a mother for me"

Always thought that he was a clean living, fit fella. How can he be gone at such a young age? I expect more will be revealed in the near future. He was a very talented man, though I wasn't that impressed with his work on KB's Why Should I Love You. Nobody gets it right all the time.

A vegan, actually, Coach. Wrote somewhere about the evils of wool production. Top man.

Did a quick google and it seems that there may be some evil in it. Thought it was just about sheering them and no harm done.

Was looking forward to his autobiography as well and his vault of hidden music , guess we will never see either now.
Latest news, he was treated for a drug overdose 6 days ago.
Prince's girlfriend ALSO died this year aged 57: Vanity and singer had wild drug-fueled affair in the 1980s but her years of crack addiction were followed by kidney failure

Prince didn't do drugs 
Don't understand the fuss about celebrity deaths. It wasn't like he was still churning out the hits

Watching Sky News this morning and listening to TalkSport with the Colin Murray Show has been great with all the clips of just some of the songs he wrote/recorded.
A very odd little bod - but undoubtedly a musical genius.
And he made some great 'pop songs'.

Zaza, it's really not about churning out hits. Prince was still producing loads of great music and putting on amazing live performances. Very few old 'stars' are having hits because the record companies and music stations won't allow it. They want new controllable artists. Prince was a genius.
He put his own life in danger when he spoke about Chemtrails.
RIP Prince, you were part of the resistance.

He was also in a fight against they ticket companies who claim gigs sell out in 50 seconds but really they just pass them on to their other companies who charge more.Getmein , Viagogo , stubhub etc
If you like Prince the musician, this is sensational
Playing The Beatles (George's) 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' in some sort of supergroup

I've always assumed he was relatively clean living based on the lyrics of 'Sign Of The Times' which is probably a bit dim on my part. Maybe we'll find out and maybe not.
As an aside, Greene King launched a new beer yesterday to celebrate the Queen's birthday - it's called Purple Reign!!
It's a conspiracy I tells ya.

Is that the clip where he throws his guitar up in the air, at the end - and it does not come back down again?
Must have been on a fish wire - or somebody up in a frame, above the stage, who caught it.

Yes, Onlooker
Could only be on a wire up into the rigging.
This was supposedly a FYou to 'Rolling Stone' magazine who declared he wasn't good enough
to be in their 100 Greatest Guitarists a few days before
Must be a big Beatles fan - here's him jamming and playing a blues solo about a year ago

I don't like his house/studio much, did you see it? It's like a big white factory unit with just a few windows.
Impressive studio inside though.

A four-hour autopsy was performed on Prince on today, but authorities said they are no closer to determing how the iconic musician died.
Carver County Sheriff Jim Olson, whose officers responded to a 911 call at Prince's Paisely Park estate Thursday morning, said the artist's body showed no signs of trauma.
"We have no reason to believe it was suicide," Olson said at a Friday afternoon news conference. "The rest of it is under investigation."
Even though the physical autopsy is finished, officials say it could still take several days to weeks before Prince’s cause of death is known.
