Can't wait to hear these guys live.

Larry tends to make good choices. He was responsible for John Blackwell joing Prince I believe.

Might be my last opportunity ever to see the guy but i'm gonna have to pass on this one.

I saw him in Paris twice in 1996 or 1997, and a 3rd time in 1998 when he was opening for Prince. Don't miss it, the guy's really bass-guitar's Jimi Hendrix!!! I remember how amazed i was at his solos!!!

I seen him before he entered the Prince circle and he was amazing. I wouldn't pay to see him now if my life depended on it, Prince totally ruined this guy for me lol Bad bad bad bass player though.
Prince may be the purple Yoda, but Wendy & Lisa and Eric Leeds also sit on the Jedi Council.
