Like I said, it's not like we're missing out on any new awesome records. Let alone a good live performance.

He wasn't actually an active musician anymore, more of an icon. I'm not saying I don't understand that people say those "R.I.P." things.

But they really shouldn't start being all cute with a dead guy and diss on me for having my own thoughts on him (even though I always mention that I myself am a fan), when they would have done exactly the same if he'd been alive.

@ Storm: Yeah, I can't stand those people who actually cry. I think that mostly happens to stupid people who can't think for themselves and really need those kind of icons. But most of them don't even think about the guy when he's alive. And when he suddenly passes away, they're telling everyone how awful it is, and how careful we ought to be when we're talking about him.

God bless the almighty interwebz.
