The latest Men's Journal has a good interview with Tom Petty in which they discuss the track he collaborated with Lindsey on for the She's The One soundtrack which the author loved but which Tom says he doesn't really remember because he hated the album so much. Then he says that what he DOES remember is that he tried to get Lindsey to join The Heartbreakers, because he wanted someone else who could be a frontman in the band so he didn't have to take on that whole burden.

The writer then talks about how it was Stevie who really, really wanted to join his band and paints a somewhat unflattering picture of Stevie just following them around on tour and showing up at his house even though they made fun of her clothes and stuff.

There's some highlights of the interview online but the Lindsey stuff you gotta read in the magazine.

interesting, thanks for sharing!

so Stevie wanted to join Heartbreakers to the point of being a total pain in Petty's a$$, but he wanted Lindsey, not her.
