My tribute to Prince in the MSR

When I was a kid in Michigan coming of age with Prince and the Minneapolis Sound, I never imagined I would one day be living in Prince's hometown. I also never imagined that I would ever be standing in front of his home, Paisley Park, mourning his death.

I am honored that the Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder, probably the first print medium to write about Prince, asked me to contribute to their memorial front page to our modern-day Mozart and Byron -- he truly was mad, bad and dangerous to know!
