i never say never oldman, the Fb DVD is hopefully something for the future.
but something that surely would make excellant viewing and a must have for the fan
so hope the catholics vid happens, like you said, The Man brought us the idea
something definately is being considered |

Music DVDs seem to be outselling (or are on the verge of outselling) CDs lately. I bet we do get a Frank DVD at some point, even if it's still maybe quite a ways off in the future. It'll be interesting to see what kind of promotion Frank gets when Honeycomb comes out in this post-Pixies reunion world.
I would love to see 7 Frank Black DVDs and I don't mean to try to put a damper on things. But I think this board kinda jumps the gun sometimes. Like when Frank originally made his Tom Waits comment last year, some people here were like "Oh my God, Tom Waits is producing a new Pixies album! I bet it's already finished! Frank's just playing games with us! He won't tell us that the new album has, in fact, already been recorded! I bet Frank's brother is listening to it right now! It's coming out next year! It's coming out next month! It's coming out tomorrow!"
Me, I'm a little more suspicious. More cynical maybe. I don't believe anything until a label issues hard information to the press.
As for pre-Catholics material, I have no idea what's out there. The Frank Black bootleg scene from that time has been more audio than video. You never know what's laying around forgotten somewhere, though. I DO have one 1996 Frank Black show on videotape. The quality is terrible and wouldn't be good for a DVD. It's from Minneapolis (the "Live 105 Cedar Fest", the nefarious bootlegger has written on the tape) and is shot entirely with one wobbly handheld camcorder that keeps darting around. The sound is mostly a blur. One interesting thing about it how animated Frank is on stage. If you've seen the Pixies (originally or reunited) or the Catholics, you're used to Frank standing in one spot, barely moving for a whole show. But here, he's bobbing his head around, he's moving around the stage, he's doing "rock moves" during the chord changes of "Freedom Rock". It's kind of odd. He even had some canned stage banter during this tour ("Anyone here remember the Curly Shuffle?", Frank probably said at almost every '96 show before "Two Reelers"). |

The hovercraft one is "Los Angeles." Directed by none other than John Flansburgh, I believe.
