Hello, All!
The blasted paperwork keeps from this international border for a full 8 hours this evening! But a perfect time to start a Q & A thread. I couldn't find the old thread so my apologies if I just couldn't find it. Sunday; 12.19 am; July 5, 2009. Is anybody out there?

Whoops! Sorry guys.
You are totally right Jose Jones - bossonova b-side. Duh. Shows you how long its been since I actually looked at the physical CD single I have. I used to have all the b-sides dubbed to a cassette tape to listen to in my car and my brain mashes them together. And I guess the sonics on that one made me think it was doolittle.... (if that's true it was recorded in those sessions it makes my totally-embarassing-to-the-uber-fan-in-me faux paux... understandable?)
But thanks guys, right you are, Bossonova B-side. See that little whore next tour, then! Now back to your regularly scheduled Q & A.
ETA: Hey! Wait a minnit! I just came across those "remastered Doolittle Demos" and it seems Santo is sitting smack dab right in the middle of Manta Ray and La La Love you! So maybe despite my brain fart on which single it actually came out on, I have a point in asking why no Santo! Though technically I don't, this made me laugh when I saw it. And its the actual b-side take as far as I can tell... well, the show is tomorrow night, and I won't be too disappointed if it isn't played but I will be psyched if it is. Though I understand their wanting to be commercially consistent.

santo was on the dig for fire single, but the version released was recorded during the same sessions as the b-sides from doolittle, so it could be called doolittle b-side if used that...
all i can say, thank god for polio! brian |

i have a question for Frank: you mentioned being afraid of flying in an interview before. how afraid of flying are you? like, casually afraid, or do you avoid it as much as possible.. and why
also, in All My Ghosts.. who is the "woman from yesteryear"? or is there one? just curious |

Hey. Frank, will NSE be released before Der Golem? Actually when is Der Golem coming out?
By the way, re Doolittle tour - would you/Pixies be playing Santo at some stage, as it was a Doolittle era demo, I think?
Hope the tour/s go well anyway...

Any chance we will see a recording of the Rabbit Hole song in the near future?
I think that song is really good.
I'm looking forward to seeing the Pixies again in November !

Greetings Charles,
What's been the most fun of the Doolittle b-sides to dust off?
PS - just got a recording back of the Ciao My Shining Star show in Brooklyn - sounds great

... and maybe some early Stranglers (e.g. from the Black'n'White Album)?

Is there any truth to the Non-Stop Erotik album rumor?
I'll be seeing you at the virgin festival show in Toronto, first time seeing the Pixies and i'm really excited! Any chances of a Black Francis show in Toronto while you're up? |
