Wow. Just wow.

I knew that he had some health issues recently - did not know that they were this bad. An absolutely awesome live performer. Reinvented himself musically a number of times. One of the best musicians I have had the pleasure of seeing live. RIP.

Wow. Michael Jackson and Prince gone. Two artists that just felt like would be around forever despite the inevitability of death, are both deceased.
