So the question about the aging Pop Singer remains, Prince Is Gay – or – Prince Is Anti Gay. Prince made some Anti Gay statements in an interview for New Yorker Magazine, which some sources say was “grossly misquoted”.
The New Yorker stands by their story, in which Prince is quoted as saying: “You’ve got the Republicans, and basically they want to live according to [the Bible]. But there’s the problem of interpretation, and you’ve got some churches, some people, basically doing things and saying it comes from here, but it doesn’t. And then on the opposite end of the spectrum you’ve got blue, you’ve got the Democrats, and they’re, like, ‘You can do whatever you want.’ Gay marriage, whatever. But neither of them is right.”
Then when asked about his perspective on social issues—gay marriage, abortion—Prince tapped his Bible and said, “God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out. He was, like, ‘Enough.’ ”
Gay Blogger “Pee Wee” Perez Hilton tried to get his fat mug in the lime light, by saying the New Yorker piece was all wrong. I wonder why people listen to this Bozo anyway ? (Oh Well)

Noel Redding – Jimi Hendrix – Mitch Mitchell
Englishman, Mitchell was a powerful force on the Hendrix band’s 1967 debut album “Are You Experienced?” as well as the trio’s albums “Electric Ladyland” and “Axis: Bold As Love.” He had an explosive drumming style that can be heard in hard-charging songs such as “Fire” and “Manic Depression.”
Hendrix died in 1970. Bass player Noel Redding died in 2003.
Mitchell had been drumming for the Experience Hendrix Tour, which performed Friday in Portland. It was the last stop on the West Coast part of the tour.
“He was a wonderful man, a brilliant musician and a true friend. His role in shaping the sound of the Jimi Hendrix Experience cannot be underestimated.” – Janie Hendrix, chief executive of the Experience Hendrix Tour and Jimi Hendrix’ stepsister.
The Jimi Hendrix Experience was inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame in 1992. According to the Hall of Fame, Mitchell was born July 9, 1947, in Ealing, England.
Terry Stewart, chief executive of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, said Mitchell transformed his instrument from a “strictly percussive element to a lead instrument.”
“His interplay with Jimi Hendrix’s guitar on songs like ‘Fire’ is truly amazing,” Stewart said Wednesday. “Mitch Mitchell had a massive influence on rock ‘n’ roll drumming and took it to new heights.”
Rock On Mitch, we hope you, Noel and Jimi are Jammin again!
