Lyon 4 nov 2003
Great gig for the lucky ones who attended this mini show ! (=I only found out on the day itself that he would play at that CD store). FB was singing solo with his electro accoustic guitar. The setlist was (not in the right order) :
Robert Onion
Horrible day
Old Heartache
Monkey gone to heaven
Cactus
Mr Grieves
Massif Centrale
New house of the pope
The Schrimp song
Jane the queen of love
Frank was smiling a lot, joking around... It was a more relaxed atmosphere than during the regular gigs. He asked the speaker to translate the schrimp song in French before singing it, he also spoke a few words in French to interact with the people in the room. That was real fun. After the gig there was a kind of interview with a BAD interviewer. He might have discovered FB’s work 15 minutes before the interview... A few questions were also asked by the audience.
Frank talked about Massif Central (the place, not the song) as the “French Transylvania”, saying he was appreciating its amazing landscape and its peacefulness (=hint from me to American people to come and enjoy France). He also mentioned the fact that Chateauneuf du Pape (=French wine, New house of the Pope) was his very favorite wine. I asked if SMYT had been a kind of therapy for him since he had gone through hard times. He answered that playing music and recording albums was just fun for him, in that way it can not be considered as a therapy. He enjoys hanging around in the studio, drinking beers...
I will post pictures soon...
