I checked out her website and noticed that she did a song with Grandpa boy. Anyone have this CD and how is it? www.monolyth.com/lindeen/bio.htmlIt would be cool for her and Paul to collaborate more eh?

I have that EP. It has 6 songs on it. Part II (titled Third Trimester) was "recorded at home with Senator Jim Dracula" - I would read that to be PW. The tracks are Run To Me (a Bee Gees cover), Don't Go Out Into The Rain (written by K. Young), and Poor Halley ("performed, produced, mixed solely by L.L., senator had no part in it"). You can hear "the senator" singing on Don't Go Out Into The Rain.

You probably already know this (but in case you didn't), Laurie Lindeen also sings backing vocals on "Ain't Got Me" off "Eventually."

I saw Zu Zu's Petals at Brownies in NYC sometime in the mid-90s. Don't remember much about the show.
Do know that Laurie went to UW-Madison and saw the 'mats on many of their early excursions on the Minneapols-Madison-Ann Arbor circuit.

Her EP is available new/used for about 4 bucks on Amazon.
Also, if you take a look at 14 Songs on Tower Records, LL is credited with backing vocals.

i saw zuzu's petals a few times back in the 90s. i didn't know about the paul connection at the time... they were a band of 3 EXTREMEMLY good looking women. i know, i know, that is very sexist to say... wait, no it's not. they were/are!
anyway, i used to have a twintone cd "when no one's looking", but it didn't make it with the move after college. it's probably behind some dingy couch in my old apartment. i liked it a lot. my friend had a cd called "the music of your life". that one was good, too.

I sat next to her at the second Guthrie show. She was nice in the end, but a little uptight ata first. I think she was more nervous for Paul then he was for himself.

Laurie takes credit for writing "Best Thing That Never Happened", in interviews around the TC's. Paul told me he wrote it. Who wrote it? Did anyone read "My Boyfriend's Back", written by Laurie Lindeen? Her first novel. Didn't make it to the shelves.

I thought it was "My Boyfriend's Dead." But uh, either way, yeah - never seen it.
I really wish she'd record more stuff. Zuzu's Petals was pretty popular in my group of friends.
This has probably been answered a million times somewhere else, but is she doing backup on Bad Times Roll?

I really wish she'd record more stuff. Zuzu's Petals was pretty popular in my group of friends. I met Laurie's former drummer in Zuzu's Petals, Linda Pitmon, about a year and a half ago here in DC. Linda is a great drummer and I've seen her play twice as part of a back up band for an acquaintance of mine. Knowing how great a drummer Linda is, I wish I could've seen Zuzu Petals play; I bet they sounded really good.

I read an article some time ago that Laurie Lindeen wrote (or co-wrote) "Best Thing That Never Happened"

from: www.startribune.com/stories/1377/32999.htmlCREDIT OVERDUE Sunday night at the Bryant-Lake Bowl, unsung singer/songwriter Laurie Lindeen whipped out a pop-savvy version of "Best Thing That Never Happened," a track that appears (uncredited) on the latest album by her husband, Paul Westerberg. Lindeen said she initially wrote the song for her solo EP, "A Pregnant Pause" -- a revelation that sheds a whole new light on the lyrics' sad introspection about what could (and should) have been. ------- regardless, laurie is awesome. i like 'a pregnant pause' more than either of the two newest PW LPs.

I agree. Paul is somewhat on fire.
Adam, your keyboard skills haven't changed much since the monolyth board, huh?
Peace brutha.
Adam, I did not mean that in a bad way. Dude, we miss you. Come back!
