In 1997, while Hole was on a break, Melissa contributed bass and background vocals to Troublizing, a solo LP by The Cars’ frontman, Ric Ocasek. The album also included guitarist, vocalist, and keyboardist Billy Corgan, guitarist Brian Baker (Bad Religion), keyboardist Greg Hawkes (The Cars), drummer Matt Walker (Filter), and drummer Ira Elliot (Nada Surf). Melissa joined Ocasek, Baker, Hawkes, and Elliot for a mini-tour in late ’97.
