You'd think that these musicians/actors would learn from the deaths of others (John Belushi/Jerry Garcia/et al) that the opiate wins in the end. Somebody tell me of a lifelong user pushing 70+?????
Keith Richards. Nothing can kill Keith Richards, I'm not even sure he's really alive. His body's going to make one heck of a science project when he finally goes.

Prince was treated for a drug overdose 6 days before his death ... multiple sources tell TMZ.
Multiple sources in Moline tell us, Prince was rushed to a hospital and doctors gave him a "save shot" ... typically administered to counteract the effects of an opiate.
We're told when Prince left he "was not doing well." You'd think that these musicians/actors would learn from the deaths of others (John Belushi/Jerry Garcia/et al) that the opiate wins in the end. Somebody tell me of a lifelong user pushing 70+????? Keith Richards is 167 years young, invented and patented heroin as well as it's methods of consumption, perfected heroin use, cigarette smoking and possibly sex.

Back in the early 80's a cute, redheaded big boobed cheerleader "friend" who was in high school, my first year of college tell me, "if you want to get laid, take your girl to a Prince concert...she'll be so horny it'll blow your mind." Oh really? He's in town next month, wanna go? Yep. Truth

Bummed about the news. Prince was a genius in so many ways. I wasn't ever a huge fan, but I was lucky enough to see him in the round in Minneapolis on a three night stint. I had always heard he was a killer guitar player, but I had no idea he was as good as he was. Open invite to Paisley Park for the after party.
The crazy thing was, everyone that bought a ticket got his latest CD. Turns out the cost was worked into the ticket and Prince was number one in album sales that year.
Pure Genius.

Dylan couldn't hold Townes Van Zandt's guitar strap...
And actually - right now I'd put Jason Isbell above Dylan too for ability to craft lyrics that tell a story.
Dylan - congrats, you're top 5 at best. Isbell and Ryan Bingham are great

Love Van Zandt.
Love Isbell.
But neither of them changed the game like Dylan did.
Their music is more pleasant on the ear, but less influential. Weird how art actually works.

Not a big fan, but the dude could shred on the guitar. He surrounded himself with some quality personnel; Sheena Easton, Shelia E, et al. His drummer was better looking than Ringo.

The only ones feeling the loss are liberals. Prince was a Republican, Christian and against gay marriage. You suck at guessing. I saw a couple of videos of performances last night. I had not realized how outstanding a guitarist he was. Check that George Harrison tribute, where he put Tom Petty and others in the shade –– to the great joy of Harrison's son. Also, his was probably the best Super Bowl halftime show ever. He was certainly an extraordinary showman. Check that on out on YouTube.

Keith Richards. Nothing can kill Keith Richards, I'm not even sure he's really alive. His body's going to make one heck of a science project when he finally goes. That's true. He defies nature. I hope he donates his body to science. A hunnert years ago (1986) I was a graduate teaching assistant at a certain World Class University in Texas. One student, in the Corps of Cadets, would drag himself in on occasion so hungover that he could barely function. On one such occasion he remarks to me.... Ya know, I would worry about all this, but look at Keith Richards, he's still alive....And that was a hunnert years ago, and Richards was already a zombie even back then Birdwatcher

Eric Clapton was asked what it was like to be the greatest guitar player in the world. He said he didn't know, you would have to ask Prince. And yes, Bob Dylan SUCKS.

The drug side of it really surprises me
I'm sure more of the story will come out.
Maybe Prince just didn't want to go quietly into the night so he took the Hunter S. Thompson route?

His drummer was better looking than Ringo. Only just a little bit. And all from the neck down. Ringo might have been a lousy drummer but he was a helluva conductor... if ya like trains.

The amount of people on this website trying to be funny for attention is pathetic . I'm no huge Prince fan -but reading the majority of the comments which are typical of threads like this -it's no wonder so many good people leave this website .
Someone has passed away and MANY think it's a time to try and be funny ? A bunch of you old grey haired guys should try to grow up before you die of old age .

I was never much of a fan of his music, and thought he was just some weird pop star hung up on his own sexuality. But when you look deeper, and I did, you find pure genius. Multi-level genius. Master of anything musical, master of production, master of his own brand, hell...even master of his own name.
Truly one of a kind.
