[edit]I believe Christian Lane's work warrants a Wikipedia page based among other things on his first band Loud Lucy's inclusion in major music publications such as Rolling Stone at the time as part of the explosion of bands erupting from Chicago in the 1990's (along with the Smashing Pumpkins, Veruca Salt, Urge Overkill, and more.
Christian Lane is also an influential artist to Tom Higginson from the Chicago band Plain White T's, and is referenced in that band's official biography all over the web, referenced here from their Universal Music Group Canada homepage: [1]
He had a well-known romance with Louise Post of the fellow Chicago band Veruca Salt. Loud Lucy appear on the Tom Petty tribute album You Got Lucky: A Tribute to Tom Petty (with the cover of "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around"). Louise Post contributed vocals on that album. It can be found here: [2]
Christian has also toured with and dated Alanis Morissette, who wrote the song "Unsent" about him, as noted here in Wikipedia: [[3]]
His song "Blow You Away" was used in the Austrian Idol competition by singer and winner Verena.
His work in film and TV continues, as referenced in the article posted, with songs appearing in films such as the Lindsay Lohan vehicle Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen, Wishcraft, and the TV show Men In Trees starring Anne Heche, which is currently as of this posting re-running on the ABC network.
Christian is an ASCAP artist, and his work is published by Universal Music Group [4] Pippinrocks (talk) 23:13, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- i think we might be better off with a page for loud lucy, which can mention things like the fact he dated alanis morrisette and a memeber of veruca salt (which are trivia, not grounds for encyclopedic inclusion) rather than a page for christian lane. most of what i see as being notable is from his work with loud lucy.
