So apparently Stevie already knew Prince in 1981.

It's also worth noting that in the E017 clip, Stevie says she doesn't even remember any of this happening - that her goddaughter was there and told this story, presumably sometime after the fact. So I mean, quite possibly, by the time Stevie started telling the Stand Back story, she also didn't remember that she knew Prince before then Or maybe the Goddaughter imagined that Prince was there.
Yes, I finally saw it!
Hilariously enough yes, then she might very well have met him during the Tusk Tour. Or The Bella Donna Tour, again her memory isn't something to hold on to. But what age was her goddaughter then? She might not remember each time from other well, or maybe she just recounted the episode to Stevie and Stevie assumed it was the Bella Donna HBO while it was the Mirage HBO, or even something different. The only revealing detail we have is the fact that he was apparently dressed in purple. When did Prince started wearing purple on stage?
