Joe Dell, "Yeah, as anyone who read my book knows, Purple Rain was a life saver. I'll tell the story now, in memory or Prince who died today at 57 I believe. Yeah, it was back in the day, somewhere after we released the EP in 2000. Snake gave me a half ounce of biker weed. It was weak. I made some cookies with it, not knowing what to do, I threw in everything! Sticks, seeds, and all! I didn't know you were supposed to cook it in the butter then sift it. So, we ate the whole batch, after like an hour or so, it finally kicked in. I called Snake and we played it off for a bit, trying to play tough guy ya know. Until we broke down and admitted we were fucked up! I threw up a few times and still was fucked up. Then I called Dan (Castiel) and asked if Queen Wizard was around. He said no, and I was like, I'm coming over. I didn't want to be in that state around the family....a very drug free family at that. So, I drove to Hackensack from Lodi and made it to the apartment. I was fucked up, did I mention that? So after an hour, Shannon and Queen Wizard came home. QW being and old hippie knew how to talk me down and explained what I was going through was nothing thousands of others have been through. So, she sat me down, gave me a drink and put on Purple Rain. I watching this movie with Prince in it and am like, fuck, when am I coming down? Finally, the scene comes on with the one dude on stage and he's dancing and another dude comes on stage with a mirror so the guy on stage can fix his hair while he was dancing. Then the guy puts the mirror under his arm and starts to dance in sequence with the lead singer. I start dying laughing, soooo hard! I finally started coming down. After that, Queen Wizard bought me Purple Rain and Prince was in my collection ever since. God rest."
