Default Lindsey on Conans podcast

Lindsey just did an interview on Sirus XM. Conan O'Brian podcast. I guess he is a big fan and listens all the time. I heard a snippet on Twitter that someone posted about his leaving the band. Nothing specific but he is still open to forgiving Stevie. Chump. And he is most upset about the Legacy of the band being hurt by the firing.

He is a chump, and it makes him look incredibly pathetic.

Yes, the stupid old goat FIRED YOU, and it's OVER. Accept it.

In the part I heard he doesn't even mention that it was her, and Conan asks, if you met Stevie in a coffee shop would you be open to talking and he says Yes! So Conan, I mean really everyone knows it was Stevie who did the firing.

I thought it was kind of funny — Conan was like if you ran into Stevie at Peet’s Coffee because that’s where she goes, and Lindsey laughed and said something like “yeah right” like the idea of Stevie being in a normal coffee shop was unfathomable. Probably an indication of how removed she is from normal life — having a family probably kept him from being that isolated.

It seems like Lindsey and Conan know each other a bit socially and might live near each other from the bits and pieces of the conversation about Conan being welcome to go to Lindsey’s to jam.

I’m coming around on being less disappointed that he is open to forgiving Stevie.. I suppose given how destructive and cruel they have all been to each other as well as other people who have been in their lives, the ability to forgive is not a terrible thing. Though I personally have no interest in seeing any reunion of any kind.

I do wish he could find a way to talk about Stevie and Christine without being so condescending. Like he couldn’t help pointing out how much he helped Christine with her songs or the fact that Stevie isn’t a “musician” — she may not be an instrumentalist but she clearly is someone who makes and performs music. I’m a fan of Lindsey and value his role in working with the other songwriters but man is he incapable of toning it down and not being condescending.

He did say something about Stevie like she isn't a musician per se. He said she's a talented songwriter.

He did complement Christine as a musician but I see what you mean. I still didn't think his comments weren't as arrogant as his comments before Christine had passed away.

What I couldn't stand hearing is that he said he'll be in LA all year working on his album... seriously! What did he do last year!!!

I listened last night and thought he must have a cold or something. His voice sounded frail and he was sniffing alot. I thought his comment about how the band needed his production help or something along those lines when he and Stevie first joined was a bit arrogant. I think they both needed each other pretty bad but FM had made many albums before Lindsey joined.

It's nice to have a fresh interview, even if a lot of it is typical LB responses. His pick of the songs and rationale why was interesting and something new and different. He said he's working on the new album this year, and invited Conan to stop over and jam with him when he feels like it. I enjoyed Conan's questions and banter. Lindsey telling him how he couldn't listen recently cos he had to drive a rental without Sirius in it.
