I'm haveing big problems finding Frank Black t-shirts here in sweden.
So if you know any sites that carries FB/pixies t-shirts or anything similar it would make my day if you posted the adress here
(oh yeah and frank black really looks like the minister of state in sweden, Göran Pehrson, on the picture in upper left corner. but thats not funny to anyone exept me i guess) |

The only place Ive ever seen FB t shirts is at gigs...... Not sure if EBay will have that kind of stuff. I'd say that Pixies t-shirts are much easier to come by than FB shirts. |

I found a number of Pixies t-shirts when I went to Manchester (kinda pointless me telling you) but I had found a number of sites that stocked them but they only had them in x-large but maybe its different now. Sorry this isn't much help but I guess Im trying to say there are a few places on the net that sell them you just have to look (hard!) |

I can scan my "Shooting the moon" frank black t-shirt and then you can print it out and tape it to your chest with pride.

A few extra? Hows that work? If your serious and looking to sell them and they aren't second hand Im interested, I don't however have any idea what they look like. |

Heres an idea..... If you cannot find anywhere that sells Frank Black t shirts, then why don't you just get the whole of your upper body tatooed so that it looks like you are constantly wearing a Frank Black T. It could be expensive if done professionally, however if you get yourself a bottle of ink and a compass you could do it yourself.... prison style. I reckon the 'Robert Onion' design wouldn't be too hard to scribe out.
Seriously, Pixies shirts are not too difficult to come by, try looking on the net, or in underground music stores which sell t shirts. But Frank Black shirts I reckon will be almost impossible to find, unless you goto a gig or you find someone who wants to sell you a tshirt of their own... but then they could have a really smelly BO problem.... phew. |

find a white t-shirt at a second hand store and then write FRANK BLACK across the front... girls will notice you and give you oral sex. |

Yeah the magic marker thing is a good idea. Just don't write FUCK THE POPE on there. People hate that. I got a Surfa Rosa shirt at the thrift store. It still smells kind of funny though.
hook it to my veins! |

All I can say is I still where my Navy Smiley shirt with pride - even if it is only fit to wear in the house!
Interesting side note: When Frank played the Reading Festival a few years back I had mine on and bumped into a chappie wearing the Green version - which made me think I did the right thing in NOT buying the green version...

I found the Surfer Rosa shirt at a local store a few years ago...they had a few, brand new. The first time I went to an FB show, I made my own FB shirt with a sharpee...I just copied the style of his first album cover. After the show, I asked him to sign it and he was like (jokingly) "Hey! This is a bootlegged shirt! You didn't pay for it! Ahhh I'm just kidding". That's probably my coolest FB moment. |

i got a FB from EBAY and it suxed. I got a Medium, but the shirt is long and skinny. it fits my chest like a small, but it goes down to my thighs which makes it very uncomfortable.
I had to go back and read teh description to make sure I did'nt order a combo Shirt/Dress
It's a dark green shirt with a line drawing of a face on the front and a FRANK BLACK scribbled on teh back. I wasn't crazy about, but it's the only one i could find.

i've got 2 pixies ones.... both with the surfer rosa cover on it... one's short sleeved and the picture is tinted blue, whereas the other is long sleaved and the pictures tinted pink....and a crazy pint it is too. got given both.
i used to love wearing them to highschool....everybody always looked at the breasts. i thought i'd get told to take it off, but never did. |

Got 2 pixies t-shirts and a Frank Black t-shirt. Got the doolittle and death to the pixies t-shirts from everythingenglish.com and the frank black t-shirt was from the gig in scotland a couple of years back for dog in the sand. But I know what you mean about the fit of the shirts, theyre not comfy, too long and too tight, especially round the neck. But hey, still my fave t-shirts! |

Frank tees shouldnt be that hard to find...even though variety is near zero, check out ebay i have a fb shirt that has the 3 alien heads linked together, on the front it says FRNK and BLCK on the back is his signature...anyone else see that? its a nice one |
