Oh, Joshy, you know you've done this, too. hahah.


1) Me dating my girlfriend.
2) Girlfriend's babysitter (um, like, 25 years ago) dated Prince (or so the story goes).
3) Prince, who's jammed with Lenny Kravitz.
4) Lenny Kravitz was married to Lisa Bonet (and messed it up, da bum).

(What? Why end it with P, when there are far more interesting celebs ... Like Lisa...)

6. Me'Shell NdegéOcello is a talented musician.

5. Sue-now-my-ass jocks her hard without creating anything original himself.

4. He also posts to Prince.Org...

3. Where he has potentially fucked things up for everyone else.

2. Sue-now-my-ass is now delusional enough to think that he is the reason why P. is releasing more music:

rolleyes

1. Prince is suing his ass big time.

Thanks Joshy, this is fun! smile

I know, but I just didn't feel like playing by the rules. To be fair, I considered cutting out the Prince connection altogether (my girlfriend also met Lenny once...) but I thought leaving P in was the absolute LEAST I could do.

No harm meant. I just started running out of other artists but I'll try some.

1) Jaco Pastorious, who played with Hiram Bullock on occasion.
2) Hiram Bullock has played with Ricky Peterson.
3) Ricky Peterson has done session work with Prince.

We also could have gone a longer way, mentioning Hiram's work with Marcus Miller, whose big break was with Miles Davis, who jammed with Prince from time to time.

In addition to his many production credits & collaborations, Prince is a quick one through Sheila E., who was part of the "We Are the World" single. Numerous connections there.

eye want 2 play the game, but 2 own up 2 5dgrees of my sources which connect me with Prince would violate some kind of privacy clause...

let's c if eye can do this n some roundabout way...hmmm, nothing eye come up with tells, with out revealing priv8 sources...

the benefits of not telling out weigh the fun of the game! my lips r sealed!

uhhh...the fun in the whole kevin bacon game is that he isnt really a star, yet he has worked everyone...


for a much more interesting game i would recommend doing 6 degrees of Wendy & Lisa...*they* are obscure yet they have worked with everyone..

the game is too easy with Prince...its like asking to do 6 Degrees of Steven Spielberg...
