eek This is VERY VERY sad..... and very odd that it happened right after Prince was "sick"
Does any one know WHEN this happened?
Cause I was just wondering if maybe this happened on Saturday..... and his daughter was maybe in a coma or something.. and they were thinking she would be ok... but then she died today?????
Or maybe they are just having some bad luck....
Which ever it is I am very sorry for Johns and his wife's loss.
Very sad!!!!! sad

Wow...this is devestating! As a father of a 2 year old little girl, I am CRESTFALLEN for John. And as a Chicago Prince fan, I can attest to the fact that John was HOT on the kit on Friday night, and now this...

I thought Prince was pretty damn good on Friday as well...

I hope both are in better condition by the time the rescheduled dates come around. I'm looking at the silver lining...now I'll be seeing Prince once during each month of the summer due to these new dates!
