I get all of the credit for starting the official Show Me Your Tears realease countdown. Right now there are 4 days left, and I have been listening to the orange album almost all day. It is now time to switch to Teenager. Tomorrow it will be Cult and Brown, and so on for the next 2 days. Everything seems to be working out fine for me and the album. I reserved a copy at Borders just in case they sell out before I get home from school and I got my paycheck yesterday which leaves me with enough money to buy all 4 copies that Borders will be getting Tuesday, so I can spread the gospel of Frank Black to the whole world.

Oh, and this countdown is only for those patient souls that resisted all the temptations and evil lusts of the world and chose not to download the album.

Damn! I did download the CD but I AM SO EXCITED FOR TUESDAY! And I will be buying at least 3 copies, so I am still a good doobie!

Only 74 more hours to go, people.

I'm still a virgin, except for hearing mp3 acoustic versions of the songs. I'm counting on Tower Records hooking me up.

I'll be getting it from Streetside Records. I got the Nadine EP there. They had about six copies and they are now all gone.

Except for Nadine, I am a SMYT virgin.

I am a SMYT whore. I've listened to it countless times (though I had access to a promo copy so that isn't as bad as downloading it)

I was given a legit copy to review, but I still want to buy a copy or two (if just to buy it for someone and/or be a bean or two in the tally) Is there generally any difference between an advance and a storebought copy? I notice accordion is misspelled ("accordian") in the liner notes, maybe fixes like that, or maybe not even that?

Okay, so until next time, who put the 'ween' in Halloween? I don't know, probably you, you freakin' weirdo.

I think they're the same, except the promo copy i have has a 'damaged' bar code. (Hole punch..)

Dunno if it would make sense to create two 'versions'...

Weird dream last night....I went to the local HMV, first thing in the morning, and the CD wasn't there. I have a fit, and things get ugly. When the police arrived, the cops happened to be Scott Boutier and Frank Black....yet they showed no mercy and slapped the cuffs on me.....I was blubbering like a baby and insisted that, they, of all people should understand my frustration....then i just sort of blacked out and went into another dream scenario....para-sailing with midget wrestlers again.....phew.

Your dream is probably a sign telling you to go reserve a copy

I would have downloaded the album already, but I for some reason was not able to. I tried up until a month ago or so, and then i was like, oh well, it's almost time for the album to come out anyway, I might as well wait for it like it's Christmas or something. So now, it's almost unbearable to wait these last few days, but I know it will be worth it. Oh yeah, and everyone else is anxiously awaiting the new Perfect Circle (whom I like too) but to my friends, I'm the lone dork waiting on that wierdo band FB&TC. (Not too many hardcore FB fans around here. Happily, my brother-in-law is majorly into both them and the Pixies; in fact, he's the one that got me listening to them in the first place.)

oh, and hey frankblackfrancis,
in your dream with the midgets do you slow the boat down until
one of 'em is submerging and then gun it? it's a riot when they
come shootin' up out o' the water screamin' at the top o' their lungs
AAAAAARRRRHGGGGGHHG!!
AFTER THAT WE USUALLY GO MINIATURE GOLFING ON THE 30 SOMETHING
FLOOR OF A DOWNTOWN SKYSCRAPER and at some point one of the midgets
lifts up the fake grass to expose a cache of artwork that i have never
seen but instantly recognize as my work....
i need to get ahold of Franks' shrink....

and my mother is from Portland, Oregon who always told me
..'there ain't nothin' up there in Portland, no work it's
terrible'..when i was breaking away from the nest in AZ and wondered about moving up in that direction. i DID go to L.A. for awhile..
..ahh yes the year the South American Volcano darkened the sky for
months and it was still chilly and grey in L.A. in the month of June...
i remember it well...so anyway WHO moves up to Portland...? cripes.
