Best artist to ever live. There will NEVER be another.

I kinda had a feeling about this when he cancelled on tour. Dude worked entirely too hard. He left it all on the stages for us.

 

[KRAYZIE]

I'm going to wait this out a bit

 

[TruDat]

WHOA no way

 

[RoadRage]

I am a big Prince Fan, bigger than M.J. but to me its not as sad, because in many ways he had a sense of closure to his life... He was able to mature as a man, putting his life in order, and able to give us those last performances as a way of saying goodbye... Plus he has a vault of material for the future...
With M.J. it was like he we never had a chance to say goodbye...
That said it does feel like a era if officially over and man what I would do to hear one of his riffs right about now...
