Does anybody know if prince ever went busking in the early days around Mineapolis. That would have been cool.

What the crap is busking?

Okay, I just wikipedia'd it. No, I'm going to guess that he did not. I think he would have been too shy.

I wikipedia'd it,and I still don't know what it meanz.

Busking for the unenlightened is the musicians who you see on the street with a guitar most times singing and playing for money which is normally thrown into the opened guitar case.

He was busking in a video for one of the singles from New Power Soul, Come On, if memory serves me correctly!

No the old man outfit was a disguise, he filmed it in Hyde Park in London during the day.

Busking as someone said earlier is a public performance and the artist(e) usually has a collecting tin to make money.

I didn't even know that it had a name. I see people playing on the street corners here downtown a lot. You learn something new every day.

He can also be seen pretending to busk during Mavis Staples' "Time Waits For No One" video clip.
