I went to see Frank Black play back in 2003. The song I wanted to hear the most was "solid gold", probably because I just broke up with a really ruthless, cruel bitch who tried to steal my soul. When I got to the show I went right to the front of the stage and waited patiently through three opening acts for Frank Black to come on. When he finally walked onto the stage, he picked up his Fender Telecaster and started strumming the opening chords to "solid gold". I almost shit my pants. |

So I end up taking 3 huge bong hits, and then all of a sudden I realized how wasted I was. It felt like I wanted to diarhea, vomit, burp, pee, cough and sneeze all at the same time. I immediately made a dash for the bathroom. No one knew what was going on so they wouldn't get out of my way. I get to the bathroom and the fuckin door is locked. Within seconds I shit my pants and puked all over the bathroom door. Turned out my bro was recieving some much needed pleasure in there. Whenever I think about that, the lyric "getting so down" always resonates in my mind. So when I came to this topic I nearly shit my pants thinking about how I shit my pants and then you were shitting you pants. fag

Your post made me think of the times I've hijacked music at parties and slipped in the odd Frank Black/Pixies track (also some Pearl Jam) only to receieve disappointed stares; the music never lasts long, someone inevitably ejects it.
"What is this?"
"Frank Black and the Catholics."
"It's awful."
Ah well. It's a good thing I don't base my friendships on mutual taste in music. |

That's a great story. I never heard Solid Gold live but it's one of my favorites (from the Catholics era). I was quite happy to hear Suffering though when he came through town in the fall of 06.

I wouldn't say I cannot listen to it. But it's one of my least favourites despite being on what I think is FB's best ever album.

Solid Gold is one of the only Catholics song I can not listen to. Actually maybe the only.
 "How do you like that, Sir Harold?

What a story, HollandTown!
I miss the Catholics but do so look forward to a Bluefinger tour with Violet. That's gonna rock, no doubt.

That inspires me to stick it on, not heard Solid Gold in ages. It's the best track off FB&TC I think. |

Same here, only with "Suffering" though i love "Solid gold" as well, also she wasen't such a cruel bitch and i only had to listen to reid paley which was ok. Good story. |
