We tried to put together a [Revolution] reunion tour in 2000, and he declined because of my homosexuality and the fact I'm half-Jewish. It came back: Go have a press conference denouncing your homosexuality and that you're converting to Jehovah. I was like: I guess we'll never hear from him again. And I had to kind of mourn him. It was devastating to think we've kind of lost him.


I remember some orgers not believing this story when Hahn wrote it in his book. They thought it was a downright lie - Prince would never demand such a thing.

Well, here it is in black and white. And now I've seen orgers still defending their idol by saying that Wendy & Lisa must have heard back from someone else. I mean, come on. How much in denial can ya get? lol

Anyway, management said, 'You're through, we think you're bootlegging,' and they managed to get me out. Well, the bootlegging didn't stop after I left. The next day, Prince came in and said, 'Where's Chuck?' Sal Greco [chief of maintenance at Paisley Park] had to say, 'Well, you fired him.' Prince said. 'Oh.' Then Prince turned to Sal and said, 'Can you get him back?'


See? Prince may leave the unpleasant chores to someone else, but he's still the one that sets things in motion. Even if someone else did send that message to Wendy & Lisa, they did so on Prince's say-so. And only afterwards does he realize mebbe he should've thought twice. Thank goodness Wendy doesn't hold a grudge as evidenced by her recent TV appearance with him. biggrin

At times I was scared of Prince because he had anger stuff. When he was pissed, you wanted to avoid his eyes. His eyes could burn you. There were moments where you were scared of him as a human being. He looked like he was going to kill somebody. And a lot of times that would be me.


Ooh. omfg




Spooky. biggrin
