New Wendy and Lisa interview up on Aint It Cool News

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/41227

Mostly about Heroes, but of course Purple Rain comes up and some exciting future work.

Of course, this interview is nothing compared to what we have in store for you...

A snippet:

SK: So do either of you have any desire to go back in front of the camera? I thought you were excellent in PURPLE RAIN (1984).

LC: Oh my God, I’m terrible! Wendy’s a good actress so she could do it. But that’s not my thing. Plus you’ve got to get up way too early.

WM: You’ve got to get up way to early and you’ve got to look way to good and I’m into looking way too ugly right now.

LC: That’s why radio is good. You can sit in the dark and do that.

SK: What are you working on now? You mentioned a new series on Showtime?

WM: It’s a new show on Showtime that’s going to be premiering June 8th called NURSE JACKIE starring Edie Falco who was the star of THE SOPRANOS. It’s phenomenal! I can’t even say enough about it. I think it’s going to be huge.

LC: It’s completely different from HEROES. It’s very earthbound and human. It’s extremely intelligent, funny, and quite good.

WM: We also scored another science fiction show called VIRTUALITY (2009) with the creator of BATTLESTAR GALLACTICA and CARNIVÁLE (2003-2005), Ron Moore, who we have worked with and David Eick. We are waiting to see at the end of May whether that gets picked up. My guess is it might not but if it does, then we will have three shows starting in the fall.

LC: I have to put a plug in for VIRTUALITY too. If it does get picked up it’d be fantastic! It’s an extremely…

WM: It’s so out of the box that I can’t even…

LC: It’s fantastic! It’s 2001. It’s the best science fiction I’ve seen in ages. It’s unbelievable. It’s beautiful.

SK: I read in an interview that you two gave recently with OUT magazine that Prince will often read your interviews and call you about things you said that pissed him off. I was just wondering if you took any calls after that interview was published?

WM: I keep getting a lot of hang ups on my machine. No, actually I haven’t heard from him since.

LC: Now that he’s expected to call he will do the total opposite of what you would expect. So he’s not going to call.

SK:You just had to call him on it...

LC: Exactly!

WM: I should have thought of it sooner.

FYI, I think Nurse Jackie premieres tonight on Shotime, but you can see it right now on Netflix streaming or on demand through cable or satellite.

Cool to hear I just watched the first two episodes last night courtesy of my contacts at Showtime I thought it was pretty bad. Wish I would have known about the W&L connection at the time. Now that I think of it the music for the opening credits for the show was cool by the show itself gets a solid D.
The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

lol For some reason, I can picture Prince hanging up when he gets someone's answering machine, and not leaving a message.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

Man don't they ever get pissed off when every interview has a question about Prince. I know he was a huge part of their lives but FFS its been over 20 years now and look what they have achieved on their own.

I listened to the first audio where they said they compose
10 minutes a day, but even that's too much....I don't compose,
so I have no idea...it didn't sound like that much to me.
Anyway, it gave me a whole new perspective of composing,
which I found to be very interesting.

well that may be so...however it goes with the territory.
Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews.

Composing on the fly (and making something your client loves) like that is not easy. Then they have to play and record it. Don't forget that part;)

I understand....like I said I found it to be very interesting,
which meant I understand now what they must go through. Thanks anyway.

I was thinking that, I suppose in terms of sales it is probably prince fans that offer their core fanbase, but in terms of scores etc I would get really annoyed

I didn't find out the theme was Lisa & Wendy until after the second episode but when I heard it I had a feeling that it couldn't have been anyone but them. It's funkay! Would love to hear that whole track.
Who ever said Prince has lost it - has lost it. The Kid's still got game!
