For example, I didn't know until now that Prince played over 20 musical instruments and that he often hosted parties at his place for fans. Or that he was a great humanitarian that donated money to so many causes. I really appreciate your feedback on this. :-)Jennifer Brown Bankshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15525705931988259779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-7541619269035170052016-04-24T07:23:31.555-07:002016-04-24T07:23:31.555-07:00Hi Jennifer - the 'advantage' of them dyin...Hi Jennifer - the 'advantage' of them dying early .. is I get to appreciate their music and understand their lives a little - so I feel for him and for the artistic-creatives of life - he obviously had so much to give - and I really didn't know ... <br /><br />Cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-59648324732444636142016-04-22T17:07:35.961-07:002016-04-22T17:07:35.961-07:00Steph,

Ironically, you and I were just "singing his praises" @ our last board meeting. We talked about going to his next concert. I feel your pain.

I was just listening to an interview today on TV where a celebrity stated, "Prince made everybody better at what they did." May we all aspire to this as creative artists.
