Links:

Ninetynine.org: This site is being updated frequently (as of Nov, 2005). This is the official site for the band.

ninetyninemusic.com: Not much here at the moment, but there is note that the site is being moved, so hopefully it will all be up again soon!

Ninetynine - Yahoo Groups email list: I started this list up for fans of ninetynine to discuss the band, the songs, the lyrics, and hopefully get some information on what the band has been up to recently :)

Jelly CD - more info. AND MP3s!!: This is a CD of songs that Laura and pals created at various times (1993-1995), under various band names.

Gemm.com: You can often find Ninetynine releases for sale here. Personally, I try to buy from the labels first, because I think that it's good to help financially support the labels/band, plus the labels usually charge less, and are more reliable, as far as what condition the album is in. BUT, if the labels are sold out, this site seems to be the best alternative.

My current favorite ninetynine songs:

Istanbul & the Punishing Heart (from The Process), 180 Degrees (from Anatomy of Distance)
