Thanks Latin!

It was interesting to hear this was the only time in his career that he had to sign a non disclosure as

a crew member.

The security guard that was scaring P.

The competition with the Jacksons.

The touring during winter months and how this presented problems for the crew.

P was riding a bike even back during the Purple Rain Tour.

So much information we havent heard before.

How cool is this? These interviews.....these observations, are so important in understandng a musician, a man, that has been/was so hard to follow. All of these segments should be archived. Treasure. Thanks 4 posting.

Thanks for posting this video, very interesting.

I´m a big fan of all kinds of background info, touring, tour riders with lots of food info etc.

Very much appreciated.

Thank you soooo much for this! It's wonderful to hear these types of stories. Never ceases to amaze me just how much he cared about the people he worked including his roadies.

Astasheiks - Don't worry. Riding a bicycle in heels - your feet aren't touching the ground. Jumping offa risers, not so much.
