I'm proud to announce that a german tv station will broadcast a frank black solo show in the night from friday to saturday. it is from the "Alabamahalle" in Munich from 1996.
So all you austrian and german fans watch out for this... it will be broadcasted on: saturday, september 2nd 2006, 00:15am on "einslive" and maybe even on "br".
For all non germans, i just can say that i will defenitely record this and wouldn't mind doing some dvd trades.... so make your trade list ready, if you're interessted :) |

also, this video makes you reconsider how awfully great the "cult of ray" record is.
i wanna be alone, i wanne be insiiiiide my headphones !
i'm thinking of putting this show (~800 MB or so) on a webserver - if i do so, it will be only for a short time & will let you know...watch this thread
i'm happy that you enjoy it ;) |

imaginable? i don't know... i love it because the people really appreciate mother nature -> that means that we have a great enviroment, and you can't find much rubbish on the streets or elsewhere. i like that. i guess its more a country life where i live, but it's ok, cause it brings a lot of advantages with it. further it seems to be very relaxing to live in a place like that. the only disadvantage is that kids get a bit boring on saturday nights, cause sometimes they can't find a good place to go out to... but that depends on which kind of person you are and in what kind of mood you're in at the moment.
anyway... :) |

i am from north burgenland.
ok that's almost vienna...
i love burgenland. and i love fb. so i guess fb loves the burgenland as well (...) i am convinced that he would have written a song about burgenland (or at least would have mentioned it in a song) if he'd spend some time there. imaginable?

debaser, ey? i think we all agree it's a wonderful song, or let's say pixies were/are w wonderful band. but i can understand that frank is dissapointed if many of his fans want to hear his previous songs with the pixies, although his post pixies stuff was pretty good... just imagine the teenager-album. it's really great. but i think that time, no one really wanted a solo frank black... they wanted a band, the pixies. i remember when my fav. band disbanded. i expected the same direction/music from the following band, that's not ok, cause everyone should try to understand what they are doing, or want to do. what kind of band would it be, if it just satisfies their crowd with the songs they want to hear?
but i think it's just natural to think that way. it takes a while till you realise that they are gone and the other ones just come.
you're right, gapu- it takes a while to realise that- and sometimes it needs a couple of years. some people never realise it... and sometimes you never realise it...
by the way: i'm glad, that i'm not the only person in austria, who is a fb enthusiast- pleased to meet you! do you live in vienna or elsewhere?

regarding the show, besides orf1/2, atv and puls tv i don't have any other channels. i would be glad to order a dvd copy ;-)
i don't have too much to trade, i'm afraid. a couple of fb shows (.mp3), and a pixies dvd (i don't know which - it contains live material, a full 1988 or so concert in GB, all videos, and a tour documentation, and the pixies documentary where frank, joey, david, but not kim, talk about the pixies, besides other minor musicians like bowie, bono, pj harvey, thom yorke,...)
i don't know your interests, but i also have the "syd barrett" story on dvd - this is really a very fine documentation.

servus gapu, servus 2reelers,
servus everybody,
i used to live in munich in 1996, now i live in vienna/österreich and i went to frank's show in the alabamahalle. though i had a terrible lovesickness in that time, frank's uncorruptible style and music managed to make me happy for a whole evening. i'm sorry until this day, that i made the mistake to yell: "debaser" between two of the songs- this was 4 years after THE split. well, i was young(er) then, but i'll never forget the disappointed and fed up look frank gave me. i've never yelled again - and started to really really respect his post-pixies-creations...
Someone said I should leave.
Shook my head -no no no no no no no. |

I never thought the Marsist was a great opener until now. And what a version of Shazeb Andleeb. Excellent stuff. If Frank's guitar was louder it truly would be perfect. |

i will have to check which fb shows i have - they are not on the pc wherefron i'm writing these. but there are many solo recordings - santa monica, 96 is a highlight. heck, i will just burn them all on CD/DVD and send them to you.
i also have 3,4 pixies boots, but all on LP and tape...
whooo, sounds interessting... great! anyway, dig through all your stuff and let me know what you got.. i'd would be nice to have shows too, and rare stuff. as for the tape, i could probably digitize it too, but it would be a problem to upload the stuff! |

=P I know what you meant, kella, space + time = splime.
It's just great to see footage of Frank Black rocking out this way. It's ten years ago yet could be the freshest thing out there, in my eyes.
And when am I ever in a bad mood? (you don't have to answer that ;)

Benji, i've been meaning to ask you. When I'm seeding, is it best to upload to as many peers as possible, or just a few? |

Posted - 09/03/2006 : 03:29:53
indeed a very nice show.
however mine's got errors all through it...but think it's cause i bruned it while still uploading...
used to be able to do it with bittornado easy peasy, but just changed to utorrent, which obviously won't do it....
both guitars are a bit low in the mix tho - especially franks, but it's a very good show.

Good to see you're in such a good mood, fbc. I have to wait another half hour or so till the dl is finished. Can't wait.
About the space thing... I meant that 1,68 Gb can be a pretty big chunk for your harddrive. Depends on the size of the HD of course, but if you are not able to burn it to DVD and need the space... |

Posted - 09/03/2006 : 02:09:21
hey man, a computer with this sound coming out of it can take up all the space it wants. in fact, it can even come to bed with me, i'll watch it there, too. Kicked in the Taco, Kella. I've just watched Kicked in the Taco performed live for the first time in my life. And Peter Crouch keeps scoring for england.

I think he means that after the download he wouldn't be able to burn the show to DVD and watch it properly on his TV, but would be stuck with his computer. And it takes a lot of space, too.
But Carl, I'm sure some nice fb.netter will burn this for you. I would, especially since you irish were friendly enough to let the three points for the Euro2008 in Stuttgart yesterday evening.
