Chris Rock on Dec 31st 2015 St Bart's: "He just seemed all alone"

sad
About halfway down. Although I think this was a quick cash grab for P and he probably helicoptered in from Turks ans Caicos.

I'm assuming Prince performed with a band down there plus Kirk was with him. Maybe Chris Rock doesn't know who these people are?

This could be true.

"On each stop of his tour, Rock displays a framed photo of the late pop icon Prince, with whom he was friends. According to Rolling Stone, Rock’s crew at each venue must set up a different photo of Prince in Rock’s dressing room." Love this! touched

No Andrian Cruthfield was on this trip and described it on Dr. Funkenberry's podcast. I think Chris just did not know who Adrian and Scot were.

I love Chris and I love his love for Prince as well. But his take on that encounter might be influenced a bit by the dude who is now his manager.

Is Alan Leeds his manager because he is really on this "lonely tip lately" I bet if he was Prince's manager Prince would not have been lonely all would have been right with the world (LOL)

Yep he is.

Well that explains it them because according to Andrian and Scot they all seem to have had a fun trip in St. Barts.

Alan Leeds has had an agenda regarding Prince for decades. He'd attend the opening of a Prince-related envelope. His brother, Eric, is similarly cantankerous, but at least contributed to Prince's music in some way.

I've often pondered if Bart is a pseudonym for Alan Leeds. Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

It kind of bothers me that Alan Leeds is one of the main sources in every single book written about Prince. What we think of as Prince's life and career is really his life and career according to Leeds and a few others.
The wooh is on the one!

Obviously you aren't someone to Chris unless you are famous.

Apparently so I guess Chris did not realize this was a paying gig for Prince and brought his band and sound man to put on the show.
