I met Prince 2-3 times in the mid 90’s on Sunset Strip in West Hollywood outside Book Soup (super book store - with an adjacent great magazine kiosk).
Didn’t recognize him @ first as he had short/natural hair, but figured it out fairly quickly once we started talking about where we were both raised (Des Moines for me) plus other stuff.
I was waiting for my wife shopping @ BS and Tower Records was across the street.
Think we first talked about how I ended up attending more MN concerts once Interstate I35 was completed (easy/timely access to MN/SP when I was in high school) and we also talked about those concerts in detail.
When we went over to Tower he spent most of his time in the classical section.
When I complained about parking he said that he walked, so assume that he had a place close by.
We always went there on Saturday or Sunday afternoon (pretty much weekly) as my wife worked nights M-F and I had Saturday or Sunday afternoons off on a regular basis.
Met a lot of celeb’s in the 45 years I’ve lived here, but he was probably the most normal/relaxing one I’ve spent brief time with.
