[edit] LGBT?

Nothing in the article indicates Hart is LGBT - does anyone have a reliable source that states anything about his sexuality? -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 20:11, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Indeed. It's a strange omission from both Husker Du and this article. Here's a relevant quote from Our Band Could Be Your Life p. 179 (which I've cited in the LGBT list):

“

By the mid-Eighties rumors had begun to circulate that someone in the band was gay. Most thought it must be Norton - after all, he had the handlebar mustache. [...] But both Hart and Mould had male lovers, [...]

”

I'll try and add this info to the article soon. CloudNine 20:58, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

During the collaboration I was trying to find a place to insert that information, but I couldn't find a way to work it in that didn't come off as "Oh, yeah, and he's gay." WesleyDodds 00:49, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Asia

So I was just ripping my copy of Asia, _Aqua_ and I noticed two songs credited to Geoffrey Downes, et. al., ..................... and Grant Hart! Anyone with a foot in both post-punk whateverrock with integrity, and ubermanufactured hair pop-metal (personally I think both these genres are great!) , know if it is the same GH? 68.122.75.88 (talk) 04:53, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
