Right?! 😂😂

[@BeatsbyBlanch]

I love how Prince has an on-stage persona but when its time to put the "musician" cap back on, he's all business. And i think Prince is one of those musicians whose not afraid to tell you you're playing like trash to your face.

Who was the guitar player that was trash???🤔🤔

[@pocket1684]

[@darkbluebossa]

now I got very curious, because Prince didnt have a second guitar player in his band around the 3121 era. Maybe it was a guest in those parties.
