I noticed this in person when I was on the second row for your show at the Ryman in Nashville. Obvioulsy, it's your prerogative to doll yourself up as you please, but why are you wearing eyeliner now that you're back w/ the Pixies? Never saw you w/ it on touring w/ the catholics or earlier.

I remember back in HS theater our drama coach had us do the same when we did Camelot, so that the crowd could see our facial features better. Other than that reason, I'm not sure what you're up to.

Inquiring minds want to know...are you going to appear at the Hammersmith Odeon w/ Twisted Sister on their "Still Hungry After All These Years" tour?

Seriously, give your minions the scoop on your new makeup phase.

Yours truly,
FranknWeezer

He was wearing eyeliner. She was wearing eyeliner.

please forgive me.

Frank's eyeliner to me says, "I don't give a fuck. I can do what I want."

I know the actual line, but I changed it because I wasn't the one wearing eyeliner.

There was a guy at my last job that wore or wears it I'm assuming because of his great love for Maynard James Keenen, the guy from Tool and Perfect Circle.


It's so funny to think about, I never asked him about it. It was kinda like talking to a hot girl and subconsciously looking at her chest or ringfinger, I'd be staring at the perimeter of his eyes.

What a fucktard that guy was

That is the coolest pic ever. I think the eyeliner (hardly the first rockstar to wear it) gives him that old Black Francis psycho quality. Remember when Charles Thompson was spooky? I do. He used to scare me as a teenager during their first incarnation. I think he's revisiting with relish. I wanna see a full shot of him in his sweater vest!

To me, it's Frank getting dressed up for the occasion,
just as the Catholics would wear suits at their Sunday night shows. The man's got flair, he's got panache, a sense of
occasion if not style.


Whatever it is, Frank can do no wrong.


I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics

I disagree. I think the eyeliner looks really stupid.

I think Frank has worn eyeliner a few times with the Catholics. Circa 2000-2001. I'm not 100% sure, though.

The eyeliner might be a practical thing. Before a large audience in a large venue with bright lights, eyeliner can help the (distant) audience see the performer's eyes.

On the other hand, Frank sometimes wears sunglasses on stage (he was when I saw the Pixies last year in an indoor venue) so maybe he doesn't care if you see his eyes.

Either way, I'm a straight male who thinks the eyeliner looks cool.

I thought I read that he said it helped with the glare from the lights. That never really made sense to me though. I mean, how much of a difference could that make.

As long as he stays away from the lipstick and blush it is all good. Maybe he even uses cover-up?

Guys should also wear lipstick, paint their nails, and douche. That's hot.
