just incase some of you weren't listening to bbc radio2 last night... frank was on for a chat & he was asked if the rumors of a reunion were true & he said "no", and then "only if they paid me five million, after tax". i just wish he gave us a definate answer a lot sooner, instead of getting our hopes up. i've dreamed of the pixies reforming for years now, it was a nice dream while it lasted. |

Man do you know what this means? A pixies reunion is actually a lot closer
2 years ago he said to a dutch interviewer that he would only do a pixies reunion if they paid him 10 million. this is only 50% of that
WOOO!!!

I'd only like a reunion if it's to do live performing
I am not sure to want a new record. Let the things as they are. And let's enjoy the multiple changes of Frank Black.
baby, that's art |

I don't see this as grounds to dismiss the possibility: I personally don't have strong feelings one way or the other about a Pixies reunion, but how many times on here have we seen people talking about Frank's love of screwing with reporters? Why couldn't this just be another example of the same?

Frank on Norwegian national TV 15th of Octobre! Of course the reporter's "angle" was the Pixies-rumours, and the reporter said Frank Black maybe made too many records!! But anyway, you can see where Frank is working in LA. Too watch the interview, you must sign in with a email-adress and make up a password, then you get admitance quickly in your mailbox. The FB-interview comes after a Norwegian singer and a Bangladeshian (!) artist, so have patience! You must click on "15.10. 2003" to get the right program. Good luck!: http://www.nrk.no/programmer/tv/lydverket/

Where the hell are Bowie, Bono and Radiohead with their checkbooks. I mean if they really are the Pixies fans they claim to be surely $5 miliion between them wouldn't seem like much.
Give 1000 monkey's 1000 typewriters and you're gonna be reading bullshit for the rest of your life. |

5 million is realistic - Abba were offered a billion dollars to reform.
I reckon the Pixies would make that sum commercially viable. They might have to go a bit Kiss, but I'd be down at the front waving my oversized foam hand.

i'm not sure who's show it was on, but it was on wednesday night (15/10/03) at about 11:10pm. hope thats some help... he also brought in his acoustic & played some old song (he said he didn't know who wrote it), & then cactus, but he talked over most of the end saying he can't remember why he never wrote the last line as it was supposed to be a rhyming couplet. he was only on for about 10 minutes though. |

Janice Long is normally on around that time isn't she? and it would make sense her having FB on, as she's had people like Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly on also, with acoustic sets... |

Why didn't someone post in their usual asshole way "Yeah he knows cuz he has inside information." Like they did to my posts?
You know why, because it doesn't matter what anyone says anyway. You'll never get one person to think a different way from reading a message board and if they do, they have tapioca for brains anyway.

That was me who said "Yeah he knows cuz he has inside information."
And if you remember it was in the King Holds Court topic and I said it after you pretentiously said "He [Frank] isn't coming back." He did post again so my comment to yours seemed fair enough because you obviously didn't know what you were talking about. Seemed like you were merely trying to rain on everyone's parade. ____________________________________________________________________________ "TRY THIS: If you don't know why you're writing, cereal, then DON'T WRITE, EINSTEIN!" ~The Swimmer
