Bobby Z had a heart attack!

Paul Peterson just posted on Facebook...

Prince Family - please pray for our brother Bobby Z who just had a very bad heart attack.

pray

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

My prayers are with him and the family. I hope he pulls through.

I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Heart attack has Prince drummer Bobby Z in critical condition

By C.J., Star Tribune

Last update: February 2, 2011 - 10:54 AM

Bobby Z, 55, the music producer best known as a drummer for Prince, is in critical condition in a Twin Cities hospital after a heart attack.

"He had three arteries that were blocked, and the doctors on Sunday night were able to take care of two of them," Adam Rivkin, his son, told me Wednesday. "They wanted him to get stronger in order to go through the final phase and take care of the third one. He's in critical condition and resting. He needs to build his strength so his heart can work on its own. Now they have him on help. That's why he's in critical condition," said Adam, who sounded as if he was holding it together, although clearly shaken up.

On Tuesday I wrote a blind item about a music icon's heart attack.

"We saw it," said Adam. "It was nice. Everyone [in the family] knows already."

Now that text messages are flying around about Bobby Z's heart attack, Adam said it was OK to write something, even though he could not reach his mother,Vicki Rivkin, by phone to discern what she was comfortable with disclosing.

Bobby Z was selected by Prince for his first tour, according to Wikipedia, because he was a white guy and Prince wanted a racially diverse band.

Get well, Bobby Z.

How long I cry till the river run dry?
How long I cry till the river run dry?

U used 2 see me
But U don't see me no more
U used 2 touch me
But U don't touch me no more

How long I cry till the river run dry?
Oh, how long I cry till the river run dry?

Our love affair I thought would be
6 4evers and a week
Stick pin jab in the middle of a dream
No love at the end of the rainbow

How long I cry till the river run dry?
Oh, how long I cry till the river run dry?

When U would hold me
Circles my heart danced
U never told me
That our love, it had no chance

300 tears crystaline
Each one contaning a memory it seems
Stick pin jab in the middle of a dream
No love at the end of the rainbow

How long I cry till the river run dry?
Oh, how long I cry till the river run dry?
No, how long I cry till the river run dry?
Oh, oh why must I till the river run dry?
Oh, till the river run dry
Oh

CallMeSir	That really sucks. I wonder if Prince gives a shit for the guy he once called his "best friend."
