i think, he was born somewhere out there - mars, io, or nearby alpha centauri, probably. came to us on a wave of cosmical dust.

So I think by now we all agree that there is no possible way that floop could be right and that I was, in fact, not lying. This is what I get when I go to the BBC archives page:

Gotta give Floop credit for never giving in despite all evidence to the contrary.
Actually Frank was born near LA: Lower Allston !! |

from a Dutch Interview (sorry, the link isn't working):
INTERVIEWER: So when you started your band in Boston..
(Frank interrupts)
FRANK: I have never even been to Boston! There is so much misinformation it's funny

I find your denial to be quite sad. Perhaps there's a 12 step program that can help you come to terms with this. Remember, the first step is admitting you have a problem.

| Floop, I hear the Department of Homeland Defense needs a new director. They need a focused individual like yourself who won't let "fact"s distract them from their vital mission. Keep hope alive. |

dude, seriously..
do a search for "Frank Black born in"
Mr Grieves showed some that say Boston
I can show you tons that say Long Beach
Dayanara claims that she heard him say he wasn't born in Long Beach.
those are the facts.

| I'll try to go next week. My old job I looked right at City Hall. But now it's a 10 minute walk, I'm busy, and it's cold. Plus it's almost 5 and you don't try to ask a city worker to do anything on a Friday after lunch. Forget about it. |

I corroborate with you on this one dayanara. In the interview Steve asked him if he was born Charles White in California. Frank kind of laughs and and eventually says that Charles Thompson is the name and denies having been born in Cali. Then he gets asked where he lives. He avoids the question at first saying something like: here and there, you know... I'm on the move all the time. Then admits to being in 'the Oregon area'. It was also the interview where it was mentioned that frank black on google gives some 2 million hits and interviewer passed that as having 2 million fans; fb.net got a mention by him saying 'they're all doing it for me' and 'it's run by a very nice guy from British Columbia'; then they moved on to therapy and how he sees a shrink, how he's divorcing because they fell out over Pretty Woman - he likes Roy Orbison and Jean liked Van Halen version. He then metioned taking voice lessons from an opera guy, how he likes to travel/touring and how he remebers where he's been 'because of the way the gas station sits on the hill' and 'I had a bag of peanuts' last time there.
It was pretty much the best FB interview.
And now, as floop lies defeated in uncontrolled sobbing cluthing in desperation to the tattered shreds of his west siiiiiiiiiiiiide pride, dayanara do I get a shag for helping you? |

Well. well. I come home from dinner to find sweet corroboration. broken part was my new best friend until he got to the shagging part. floop, I've never met you but this is what I imagine you to be like in person:
*fingers in ears* "lalalala! I don't hear you!"
Perhaps when you're in London next week you can swing by the BBC and dig through the archive yourself.
Charles Thompson was not born in Long Beach, California.
If you really want to know, look in the Frank |

No no, I'm looking for proof directly from Frank. Any dumbass can write an article saying Charles White was born in Long Beach. Clearly many dumbasses already have.

Even though I'm from Boston (east siiiiiiiiide), have FBF, have read the liner notes a few times, have that Boston Globe article taped to my ceiling (equipped with a really nice photo of Frank in a wool hate swinging a guitar! from same article) and have heard the interview where he somewhat testily denies being born in Long Beach...
I think I have to go with Floop on this one.

From the FBF liner notes, written by Frank himself:
quote:
Sometime back in 1987, I think, the producer for what would become the Pixies first record, Gary Smith, asked me to drop by his apartment in the Allston section of Boston, just down the street from the building I was born in, to play some songs into his cassette walkman.
Ahem.

haha, I can't believe you let floop tic you off that much. he's joking (in 5 minutes he'll post to deny that, and maybe call me names).
the FBF liner notes is the only evidence you need. |
