So, what exactly is Frank saying to Scott during the intro to Bullet? His voice fades out at times and I can't quite make sense of it. I have read elsewhere that during the middle of a set, Scott will refer to this intro (that I can't decipher) and give Frank grief over it. Anyone out there have it transcribed?

Something along the lines of "AhahI like how you do that Scott...like the drummer with... 15 toms there, whats-his-name..."

"I joined the Cult of Frank / Because I thought it would straighten out my life, SIR!"

Surely he must be referencing Alex Van Halen.

I always hear "15 thumbs". Figured it was some crappy band name.

I always heard it (probably misheard it) as "15 tones".

... or similar to the saying that someone is 'all thumbs' when they're really clumsy. Maybe Scott was fumbling the sticks

When he did Bullet with the new drummer recently - I thought he was going to change it to 'I saw how you did that Joe...Drummer of 15 days...' He just stared at him instead!

If you play it backwards, you can clearly hear FB ordering Scott to go out and kill prostitutes with a hammer.

I think you all may be wrong...I think Frank is poking fun at Boutier's tom intro...

Frank Black: (laughs) That's not how you do that, Scott!

The drum-in is somewhat bombastic, and I think Frank was amused by it. As for what Frank says next, I'm not sure. But I'm definate he says "that's not how you do that, Scott."

Anyone agree?

I always thought he was just laughing at something scott was doing at the time. I assumed he was doing something goofy or tricky with the sticks or whatever(like the drummer of 15 toms, which is a band I've never heard of but I'm sure exists) and it made Frank laugh ..

To me it sounds like there are two people talking,
the I like how you do that scott-part just begins too soon after the undefinable word spoken before it

A long time ago, back on that igroups list or whatever it was called, the list where Lindsey, founder of the Abstract Plain, went by the name of Kildie, there was a poster called "drummeroffifteentoms". So when I heard and hear that intro I always thought and think that Frank was aware of that old list and thought that was a cool logon name. All of which is not to say that that person's list name does not in turn refer to some of what is discussed above. Just suggesting that this may be a case of internet fandom influencing art.
