QUIDNUNC'S CONFIDENTIAL!
Proving you can’t keep a bad boy down, Prince ended his self-imposed retirement from the concert stage by making a surprise appearance smack dab in the middle of Sheila E.’s recent Hollywood gig. Not only did his Purple Highness perform a 20-minute set that had the crowd in an uproar—the once shy guy actually dove into the audience and warmly shook hands with dozens of startled customers.

Proving you can’t keep a bad boy down, Prince ended his self-imposed retirement from the concert stage by making a surprise appearance smack dab in the middle of Sheila E.’s recent Hollywood gig. Not only did his Purple Highness perform a 20-minute set that had the crowd in an uproar—the once shy guy actually dove into the audience and warmly shook hands with dozens of startled customers.
And while we’re in the Mood Swing department, Adriana Kaegi, Cheryl Poirer and Janique Svedberg—better known as Kid Creole’s Coconuts—have called it quits with the fishnet stockings and the coconut shell brassieres. They’ve signed with Atlantic Records to record an album as Boomerang— but unlike their Australian Aborigine namesakes, they won’t be cornin’ back to Kid. Their new sound, reminiscent of the Ronettes, the Crystals and other early ’60s girl groups, is much more to their liking and Kid (a.k.a. August Darnell) is reluctantly accepting photos and resumes to fill the sudden gap.
