April 21Apr 21 comment_81361 Hard to believe. Time really does fly! Last year I visited his home in MN. Calling it a mansion would be an understatement. I did not get to see the entire place -- that is like a $400 tour.He is one of the few musicians I saw more perform than once (twice). I saw the Ohio players twice... I think that is it. Anyhow he was doing a residency on Vegas the last time I saw him 2007 he walked by everyone's table and I patted him on the back :-)If he was alive today he would still be only be in his 60's!Charley Murphy (another one gone too soon) tells a hilarious story about ballin' with Prince.

April 22Apr 22 Author comment_81365 My daughters were big Prince fans and that's how I came to be a fan. I attended at least 4 concerts with them including his Purple Rain tour one in Chicagoland where he broke all records selling out 8 nights at a large venue. I remember my youngest daughter camping out all night with hundreds of fans to be first in line to get tickets.I actually liked old vintage Prince better than his later work. Also liked "The Time" who were his opening act when he first started out. Report

Critics pretty much panned it as being all style and no substance but fans are giving it a thumbs up, praising the job his nephew, Jafaar Jackson, for the good job he does, playing Michael.Meanwhile , it's been reported that 6 more alleged victims have all of a sudden come forth, fiing charges against the gloved one's estate, charging him with child molestation...
