Bout fricking time I found a decent/existant Pixies board!
Yeah, so...me:
Male, 20, south-east coast of the UK.. play in the UK's (far as we know) Pixies "tribute". Its all very tasteful.
I've had a loving relationship with the Pixies since I was 16 and just last year decided to do something about it by forming the band out of the ashes of other bands I've been involved with, friends of friends, and the like.
Not too blashemous for you guys I hope- we're not making huge amounts of money out of it, we're self managed and we just love playing the tunes. We're taking a few months out to learn more material and sort out bookings in Ireland, London and around the south.
Anyways, post yas later:

Hey again guys, didn't know someone dug this up!
At this very moment, we play:
Cecilia Ann
Debaser
Here Comes Your Man
Monkey Gone To Heaven
Hey
Tame
U-Mass
Where Is My Mind
Gigantic
The Holiday Song
Gouge Away
Wave Of Mutilation
I've Been Tired
Bone Machine
Isla De Encanta
Letter To Memphis
Palace Of The Brine
Caribou
Tony's Theme
Nimrod's Son
Dig For Fire
Levitate Me
Planet Of Sound
and constantly working on more. I'd like to think we play all of them well, we've had hardcore fans say we sound just like the real thing, even though I don't sound identical to Black. Ah well, powers of suggestion.
We're planning to take on a tour of student unions around the UK in the summer, college rock ahoy!

Hey...Doog, have you listened to any of Frank's new stuff.
Man, there is something about female bass players that is super cool. I think it is because I play bass...and you know they'll have strongs hands and arms, whatever that might mean.
Signatures are for wusses...yeah, that's right...wusses. |

Doog, while you guys are rehearsing, why don't you pick an FB tune and cover it, and we can put it on our compilation CD that we've just started working on. Let us know on the Frank's Fans Sing Frank board:

| Might well do that! I've actually been itching to record Headache (or something off TOTY) in my little studio, so maybe I'll set to work at then when my acoustic gets back from the repair shop.. |
