Hi, From what I have learned she is mostly just touring with the Eels for now. She is supposed to be on Letterman with them June 22. Catch her while you can!

Anyone else on the list should feel free to correct or clarify me on all of this, but... Lisa and 4AD amicably parted ways not long after "Slide" was released. Soon after, she said in an interview that she hadn't been writing and didn't know what she was going to do next. She couldn't afford to make records that 4AD couldn't sell, and she couldn't do it on her own, so for all intents and purposes, she "left" the music business. She toured with the Latin Playboys as their opening act and as part of their touring band. Then she disappeared for a while. Then reports surfaced that she was touring with the Eels as part of their touring band (indeed, she was to do this when the Eels' previous album "Electro-Shock Blues" was released; they canceled most of their dates after group lead E's mother passed away). Unfortunately, the Eels are cancelling all but four of their tour dates. Recently I saw on Lori Carson's website (www.loricarson.com) some entries in her diary and Lisa surfaces a few times. No real new information is there but Lori mentions that Lisa played her some songs she is working on. Lisa has said before that she wondered if she could ever get her music to listeners via the Internet. Now that that possibility has become even more viable, hopefully she will be able to go that route and we'll be hearing something from her sometime in the future. - ------- The Ectophile's Guide to Good Music: http://www.smoe.org/ectoguide/ - ------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with the message: unsubscribe sycophant If you gave an infinite number of monkeys an infinite number of computers, they would all get AOL accounts and send unsub messages to the list address.

Last weekend, Lisa was seen playing percussion and singing backing vocals for the Eels on Jools Holland's show on UK Arena on cable TV. They were playing as part of the BBC Music Week event. She looked like she was really enjoying herself. Does anyone think that the new Eels single 'flyswatter' sounds like it's had some Germano influence on it? It sounds like her type of tune.

It sounds like her type of tune. When I first heard it, I thought the same thing and got all excited, thinking she was performing on the album, as she did on "Electro-Shock Blues". E writes quirky little melodies like that, though. Whether he can credit Lisa as an influence is up to him. :) - -- Tim - ------- The Ectophile's Guide to Good Music: http://www.smoe.org/ectoguide/ - ------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with the message: unsubscribe sycophant If you gave an infinite number of monkeys an infinite number of computers, they would all get AOL accounts and send unsub messages to the list address.

Hello all- I saw Lisa when she toured w/ The Latin Playboys- it was an all-around terrific show! She opened up and played for about 45 minutes w/ Tchad Blake joining her to emit weird sound effects! Then she joined the Playboys as a violinist. I am saddened that Lisa & 4AD have parted ways- they seemed like such a terrific match! I know 4AD seemed to REALLY support her Excerpts from a Love Circus tour. I think Lisa's music is well-suited for Internet release, thus allowing fans of hers (how few there may be of us) to buy her music. Lisa has always been a sought after side musician (she played on Sheryl Crow's The Globe Sessions), so she continues to earn a living playing music, which affords her the pleasure of making her own records. Whatever the case- I love Lisa w/ great passion! I've met her a couple of times and she's always gracious to her fans! - --Dave in Dallas __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
