I remember reading that one of the reasons that he wasn't keen on Haywood Baker (His step-dad) was that he used 2 make him weed Dandilions. Would that count?

Of course not. He's an artist. He's been living off of other people's manual labor since 1978. shrug

1. He's a man. 2. He's 5 foot nothing on a chair. 3. He's the Purple Yoda.

He has an army of assistant to do everything for him, including getting a mug for him from the top shelf. And I'm possitive somebody puts his socks on for him every morning. I wonder if he has an assistant put his condoms on for him a la Henry the VIII ... ?

All the bios I ever read make it seem as though all he did was play music. No accunts from people who knew him back then seem to tell of him having any job other than playing music. I mean you weould think Pepe Willie of someone obscure like that would tell a story about him getting fired from McDonalds or washing cars or something.

Not sure exactly what was used to sheath Henry's royal... er... sceptre... but less than 20 years after his death the linen model was getting rave reviews:

"Fallopio claimed to have performed an experimental trial of the linen sheath on 1100 men, and reported that none of them had contracted [syphilis]."

I thought it was common knowledge here among the hardcore fans that Prince used to work as an usher in a movie theater? Hence his love for movies. He also mentions this in "The Good Life", even though in that song, he doesn´t really mention that he was working there to make money, but rather that he went there because it was his favorite spot. ( "Uptown in every movie show, you know where to find this brother, La Dolce Vita was the knob that turned me on, Marcello Mastroianni Italian mack, coming on strong..." paraphrasing a bit here, I may be wrong.)

This was also mentioned briefly when he went to the movies with his ex-wife and accidentally dropped a lot of popcorn on the floor and then told the ushers that he used to be an usher, too.

Doesn´t anyone remember that incident? I think that was one of the few mentions of Prince ever having a job that was not music related.

You´re right, no mention in any of the biographies but it was mentioned here on the org, I think it was either a small newspaper snippet or some excerpt from a news website. I have very vague memories but I remember it was an article about Prince and Mani at the movies.

And there was a long thread on the org about it. lol Because it had nothing to do with music, hence the long thread I guess.

No no, same people, different scenario, probably two or three years after the Chanhassen movie theater incident.

It was some short news snippet about Mani and Prince dropping popcorn on the floor and Prince telling the usher that he knew what it´s like because he used to have the same job. Can´t really recall the specific date or source, but I read it here on the org.

Believe me, I have the memory of an elephant when it comes to these little details, so I´m pretty certain that I read it here but I can´t remember the exact date or source.

Maybe he was trying to be friendly? I'm thinking of him relating to cleaning up after another with his experience in sharing a room with his messy best friend, Andre. Then of course, he moved to the rumerous, yet musical basement

But actually, on the other hand, I kind of like the feeling of satisfaction of spring cleaning and washing the windows. It's so much more appreciated when you do it yourself. cool
