OCRegister.com - Pedro and the Watcher - April 6 celebrity birthdays: the video edition.
You say Black Francis, I say Frank Black, let’s call the whole thing Pixies!
Today’s celebrity birthdays slide show can be found at this link. For video clips of a few of our favorite birthday boys — where were the ladies born today anyway? — carry on…
Frank Black, oh my goodness, for the Pixies, of course:

La La Love You, Frank POSTED AT 6:50 AM ON APRIL 6 BY STEVE SEEL
Today in Music History:
1937 - Merle Haggard was born. 1966 - The first session of what would become The Beatles album 'Revolver' started in the evening at Abbey Road studios London, with the recording of the basic track of 'Tomorrow Never Knows.' 1968 - Pink Floyd announced founder Syd Barrett had officially left the group. Barrett was suffering from psychiatric disorders compounded by drug use. 2006 - Eminem filed for divorce from his wife Kim less than three months after the couple re-married.
On this day in 1965 Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV was born ... he's known better as Frank Black and/or Black Francis, co-founder and lead singer of The Pixies. It was once said that everyone who heard the Velvet Underground during their heyday formed a band; it's tempting to imagine the Pixies had a similar impact. Kurt Cobain, for example, claimed that Nirvana was just ripping off the Pixies.
To salute Frank, we played The Pixies' "There Goes My Gun," from Doolittle.
Decider - Daily Agenda: April 6.
Pixies: Appearing at the Mohawk tonight (in spirit).
1. Whether they've got whores in their heads, want to grow up to be, be a debaser, or if they're possessed of some other non-Doolittle, Pixies-era Frank Black lyrical obsession, Austin musicians celebrate the birth of the cherubic king of the alterna-boom tonight with a Pixies Hoot Nite at Mohawk. Bonus points to anyone who reinterprets the studio banter from Surfer Rosa— because who doesn't enjoy a good round of "I'll kill you! You fucking die!"? [UPDATE: As of today, the Pixies Hoot Night has been canceled.] |
