Your music seems to be haunted by different lives and different worlds, as if it bore the trace of astral trips… Did you have a lot of experiences with drugs?

Prince, visibly shocked by the question : “If you are under the influence of drugs, who’s making the music? It’s not you. In fact, you’ve become the instrument of the drug. Some people make that choice, it’s not mine.”

MUSICIAN: Were you doing drugs?

PRINCE: No. One thing that turned me off to that was seeing my brother get high. At first we all thought it was funny, but then I started asking him questions and he couldn’t answer ’em, you know. So I felt it was kinda stupid. And I didn’t want my mind all cloudy at any time, because I always felt… I don’t know, maybe it was a basic paranoia or something about me, but I didn’t want anybody sneaking up behind me, and doing me in, or taking my money, or tricking me in any way. So I never wanted to get high.

Yet people are so convinced he was on or did drugs. I never got that impression of him and I won't ever believe he did!

Hi fam! Seems kind of quiet in here today, hope everyone is okay!

MonkeyRose found another one, almost the same as the 3121 perfume outfit. Same colouring anyway, and definitely similar of a reverse super bowl outfit! Anyone know which performance this was?! foodnow:
