Stolen Nova
On April 7th, 1985 Prince concluded his Purple Rain tour at The Forum in Los Angeles. The following day he ventured down to Venice Beach. He stumbled upon a house party where Suicidal Tendencies were playing and went inside. He borrowed a skateboard from Jay Adams and did a wallride in his high heels. He took a pink spray paint can and graffitied his name in the bathroom. He even sat in on guitar for a few songs with Suicidal before the party was busted by the police…None of this is true, but if it were the results may or may not sound something like Los Angeles native Josh Landau’s Stolen Nova.
