Still reeling here as regards Prince. His first performance on American Bandstand (http://theconcourse.deadspin.com/this-performance-by-a-21-year-old-prince-proves-he-was-1683260364) in 1980 is something that sticks in my mind. He's this nervous kid, eyes at the floor all stuttering and awkward then he kills it with his performance.
That's what I got from him - he showed me that you can be. Whoever you are, whatever your gender and sexuality. Just own it. Proper icon and hella underrated guitarist. Rest in Purple.
