No new post from Drfunkenberry since Prince's death

The website's last entry is a notice of Prince's passing. Still no new post as we speak.

He posted on his instagram tonight, with a pic for folks to use Wednesday at 6:07pm ET, which is 7 hours and 13 days, since he died. We have to get #Prince trending everywhere!

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

He also did a tribute podcast last week and is recording or has recorded part two of that this week. Was a really touching show - although avoid episode one, which I listened to on the bloody 20th basically saying move sling folks nothing to see here. So sad. Love you all purple family.

Me too. Freaked me out that he died a few hours after me listening to that podcast.

Wasn't he the one who encouraged Prince to do a show at PP to show people he was okay? He also joked with Prince to go ride his bike just so that the public would know he's cool. This was all on his Twitter page the day before Prince died.

He's not focusing on the web page. He does have a 2 hour long podcast that will reduce you to tears that all should listen too.

I'm not mad at him for minimizing the airplane incident at the time. He was just going on what Prince and his camp told him.

I am mad!! There were plenty of us fans who encouraged Prince to rest. That he didn't need to prove anything. When I heard about the last party at PP I got angry! I was like, "WTH, why is Prince putting on a party after having an emergency incident less than a week ago?"

i'll just say this: he was ADAMANT that the stuff in the press about painkillers / opioids was all lies. and early this morning he tweeted the star tribune article about prince seeking treatment.

i think that damages his credibility. i understand personal feelings, but to assert that these are LIES without substance, especially leaning on an inside connection, well. it's disheartening.

i was very vocal on twitter about the party and it scared the crap out of me. then it appeared as though he was okay ---- now all i can think about is why his staff didnt push harder ....i have gotten fired for doing the right thing in some dicey situations, but thats why i can sleep at night. i mean you can't force someone to do anything but you also have a responsibility to yourself and your client to do whats necessary. even if you get canned.

Right!! Many were vocal and adamant that Prince needed to rest while "some" were all about "Show us you're okay! Put rumours to rest!" There was no need for that kinda peer pressure and all of those JW friends should have been checking on Prince at least every 4 hours since Moline. Ah well, just goes to show...you don't really know who your friends are...
