I so applaud Cooking Vinyl for the catholics thing going on but...
Frank Black Comprehensive DVD
...i've yet to see any of the singles vids, that's so bad of me
i could do with a box set that celebrates FB as an artist rather than just one of his bands (not just any old band though, i agree)
so, er...anyone know the number for 4AD? |

This thread's not dead yet!
I'll take anything that the man makes. He is immensely talented and I
adore and will support any and all of his endeavors.
But my own personal wish is for the mighty Catholics to rise again.
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics |

nice one guys, but the mango did it!
so can't wait for a catholics dvd (even though the possibility according to the cult could be thin - lack of footage etc) but surely it's not much to want one of FRank as an artist himself. Yep, including the catholics too. big time!
thought you had a brilliant thread going on there Bill, anytime you want to bring back the petition, you got another name, this time we'll title it for the world to see. Maybe, just maybe, Frank will come across it.
Its a real shame it just stopped like that, espcially now as a box set is in the works.
Surely they know it's visual FB that would seriously tempt us buyers, even though some of us will buy anything (me, me, me)
Give me a few years, i'll just enrol at my local uni and learn all i need to know about the medium, you can have a discount on the very first copy i produce. fuck it! to you it's free.
So far i have fB solo doing a kinda Dream is Over set, but it's a start
I'll Be Back.

frank with hair, wearing plaid, singing with the band in a house in palmdale. there's some hot guy playing bass in the background. frank makes pb&j for everyone, the men in black come to visit (they're not gray).

yeah, my video's super low quality but the hotness still shines through. he looks rugged, lumberjack-y, muscular thighs. we should try to find out who he is and what he's up to now, he was rockin' out pretty hard in that video.

Oh my! I wonder whatever happened to this talented musician who
played with Frank. Perhaps a reunion tour would clarify things?

well already we found 2 vids i never knew existed, this dvd of ours is gonna look so fine.
and a hint of McC probably looking finer (for the girls of course, and the odd boy or two)
thanks for not just reading but posting, too.
244 hits but just us posters , I wish sometimes there was a post on view policy here,
but if this isn't relevant to their thoughts, then so be it
but the mission is on, with or without their help.
we WILL have our Frank Black DVD |

DaveMcCaffrey? Hm. I may have heard of him.
When/where did Frank speak of a Robert Onion video? Anybody seen it?
This all sounds like so much fun!
There is much interest in Frank's non-Pixies material, future and past,
out here!

this is the only place for Frank's future and past interests.
i've been over to 'pixiemusic' but it just ain't happenin'. Been there done the pixies
we have the power to write the most unbelievable book ever on FB and with both the resources and knowledge shared on this here forum, we can do anything related to the man. If only we could put our minds to it. |

I'm putting my mind to it. And I'm also putting my mind to a Catholics
tour. Lots and lots of Catholics happenings in the future. Albums, tours,
DVD, the whole works!

Well, that's a photo of both Frank and Kim. Here, we're talking
Frank solo and/or with the almighty Catholics.

Sure, the Frank Black board wouldn't mind a Frank Black DVD, but what would be on said DVD? Other than the videos. And I mean specifically. Not just "some live clips". What specific and obtainable high quality live clips do you know exist? This would be a big help to you if you want to appeal to a label to put something out.
Personally, I'm not really counting on a Catholics DVD being a part of the box set, though that would be great. I won't believe it until it's officially announced at least. Just because I have no idea what material exists for it and I personally interpreted Frank's question to us about "bootleg stuff" as meaning he doesn't know what exists for it, either (though maybe he was talking about the live CD). |

i think when fb mentioned bootlegs he was probably referring to the Catholics stuff.
you so right, we would need to find footage to back up the dvd request. but i'm hoping since frank called the pixies quits, there was some interest in him as a solo artist which began in '93. especially at his gigs.
hopefully someone here can help as only a few have posted so far. maybe they don't know, or think this threads shit. but we will track down anything that could make up a dvd.
if a record label wont do it, then we can at least try research this ourselves. something to do while we're here i guess.
and this is all in theory so far. just the next step from the petition.
it would be so cool to have the man on my tv screen away from the pixies.
this is my motivation. |

[I apologize for not reducing the size or otherwise idenifying the following as a quote, but this is a quote from another topic in another FB.net forum and I couldn't fiqure out how to do it, so I just copied and pasted here]
(The following is my post and The Man's reply from "FB&the C's B-Sides" topic in the "FB Making Noise" forum.)
....................................................................
Hey Chuckie,
With all due respect, how 'bout an update on this FB&The C's 2 live albums? After all, you started the topic and then kinda ran off somewhere to do something for about a year now, and just left us hanging!
By the way, thanks for the post on JACK. You gotta still be on cloud 9.
So, you ready to get back to work yet?
Once again, with all due respect, thanks.
OldMan

UPDATE.
NYC HAS BEEN UPBEAT ABOUT DOING A BOXED SET; ALL THE RECORDS, PLUS THESE 2, PLUS SOME OTHER STUFF; MAYBE A DVD WITH CONCERT AND VIDEO STUFF? ANY GOOD BOOTLEG STUFF OUT THERE? DON'T BUG THE LABEL; IT'S TOO EARLY. THANKS.
FB
...................................................................
So, as you can see from Frank's post, as set-out above, it was Frank who brought up a DVD in the first place. I assume he had something in mind that he wanted to include on said DVD, such as "concert and video stuff" as he stated in his post. And, I'm sure he has his own collection of concert and video stuff (probably up in his closet, as you recall, he mentioned he had been looking through boxes of tapes from his closet for the FB&theC's B-Sides Compilations that he first posted on Feb. 2004 in "FB Making Noise" forum.)
His question to us, "Any good bootleg stuff out there?", IMO, is an attempt to ADD ADDITIONAL material to the DVD.
So, it's obvious, to me anyway, that he has some concert and video stuff and that he is considering including it on a DVD for the BOXED SET of Catholics, with or without bootleg footage from us. And, as you can see from his post, the idea of including a DVD in the Catholics' BOXED SET is his idea which he has so generously shared with us here at FB.net.

In the spirit of dissecting sentences, Frank says NYC is upbeat about doing a box set, meaning it may have originated as the label's idea.
He also says "Maybe a DVD with concert and video stuff? (question mark)". Of course, it looks very, very possible that a DVD with substantial content may be part of the package, but when the announcement comes that way, I'm not considering it a certainty yet.
Also, the first paragraph of my post above is a response to "FB Conspiracy's" statement about a "comprehensive" Frank Black DVD from 4AD. Not this Catholic's thing. |

Oldman,
BillG brought it up in 2003, hence this thread
the original died a death by mango so in some way this is a resurrection
true it was fb's idea for a catholics dvd, but what about those years between P's and C's
there were some amazing songs written in this period and so i'm hoping we can find some gig action to complement
in the original boxset thread, it was said a dvd would be hard to do, but i'm so glad you see it different within franks words oldman, i'm with you
well, i'm hoping fb has some "concert and video stuff", fingers crossed |

hey jason
i don't know what else could be on it, that's what i'm hoping some good people here can answer for us. this is the only fountain of fb knwledge that i know of, well, the only site with a dedicated to FB forum. if we don't know, who else does? Frank. damn.
The 4AD thing was just a joke, i was just slightly baffled that we may be getting a dvd of the catholics, but there isn't anything on the man period |

Hey Jason and fbc,
I realize there are two different DVD's that have been discussed here, and my post is referring to the Catholics DVD, and is in response to Jason's 2nd paragraph expressing that he wasn't counting on a Catholics DVD to be part of the Box Set, and didn't know what would be on it. I posted my opinion that I was optimistic about a Catholics DVD being part of the box set based on the fact that Frank brought it up, and I don't believe he would have said anything about it without being able to deliver, and deliver a quality DVD. I mean he has no reason to bring it up.
As for dissecting his sentences, what do you expect? After all, he is The Man. It's incredible that he posts here and I really enjoy dissecting his sentences.
And, yes, I agree with you Jason that Frank's statement that "NYC is upbeat about doing a box set" could indicate that the box set was the label's idea. But, on another hand, what may have happened is that Frank may have approached the label with "One More Road for the Hit" and "Snake Oil", and the label may have said, "hey Boss, why not let us do a Catholics Box Set." And, Frank may have said, "hey guys, that's a great idea, and while you're at it, let's include a Catholics DVD,..." or something like that.
And, yes, I would love to see a Frank DVD of the period from 1993 up to the Catholics. Seems unlikely, though, given this Catholic box set. However, Never say Never. |
