You swine. You vulgar little maggot. You worthless bag of filth. As we say in Texas. I'll bet you couldn't pour piss out of a boot with instructions on the heel. You are a canker. A sore that won't go away. I would rather kiss a lawyer than be seen with you.
You're a putrescent mass, a walking vomit. You are a spineless little worm deserving nothing but the profoundest contempt. You are a jerk, a cad, a weasel. Your life is a monument to stupidity. You are a stench, a revulsion, a big suck on a sour lemon.
You are a bleating foal, a curdled staggering mutant dwarf smeared richly with the effluvia and offal accompanying your alleged birth into this world. An insensate, blinking calf, meaningful to nobody, abandoned by the puke-drooling, giggling beasts who sired you and then killed themselfs in recognition of what they had done.
I will never get over the embarrassment of belonging to the same species as you. You are a monster, an ogre, a malformity. I barf at the very thought of you. You have all the appeal of a paper cut. Lepers avoid you. You are vile, worthless, less than nothing. You are a weed, a fungus, the dregs of this earth. And did I mention you smell?
Try to edit your responses of unnecessary material before attempting to impress us with your insight. The evidence that you are a nincompoop will still be available to readers, but they will be able to access it more rapidly.
You snail-skulled little rabbit. Would that a hawk pick you up, drive its beak into your brain, and upon finding it rancid set you loose to fly briefly before spattering the ocean rocks with the frothy pink shame of your ignoble blood. May you choke on the queasy, convulsing nausea of your own trite, foolish beliefs.
You are weary, stale, flat and unprofitable. You are grimy, squalid, nasty and profane. You are foul and disgusting. You're a fool, an ignoramus. Monkeys look down on you. Even sheep won't have sex with you. You are unreservedly pathetic, starved for attention, and lost in a land that reality forgot.
And what meaning do you expect your delusionally self-important statements of unknowing, inexperienced opinion to have with us? What fantasy do you hold that you would believe that your tiny-fisted tantrums would have more weight than that of a leprous desert rat, spinning rabidly in a circle, waiting for the bite of the snake?
You are a waste of flesh. You have no rhythm. You are ridiculous and obnoxious. You are the moral equivalent of a leech. You are a living emptiness, a meaningless void. You are sour and senile. You are a disease, you puerile one-handed slack-jawed drooling meatslapper.
On a good day you're a half-wit. You remind me of drool. You are deficient in all that lends character. You have the personality of wallpaper. You are dank and filthy. You are asinine and benighted. You are the source of all unpleasantness. You spread misery and sorrow wherever you go.
You smarmy lagerlout git. You bloody woofter sod. Bugger off, pillock. You grotty wanking oik artless base-court apple-john. You clouted boggish foot-licking twit. You dankish clack-dish plonker. You gormless crook-pated tosser. You churlish boil-brained clotpole ponce. You cockered bum-bailey poofter. You craven dewberry pisshead cockup pratting naff. You gob-kissing gleeking flap-mouthed coxcomb. You dread-bolted fobbing beef-witted clapper-clawed flirt-gill.
You are a fiend and a coward, and you have bad breath. You are degenerate, noxious and depraved. I feel debased just for knowing you exist. I despise everything about you, and I wish you would go away.
I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you are. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. Your writing has to be a troll. Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we know. I'm sorry. I can't go on. This is an epiphany of stupid for me. After this, you may not hear from me again for a while. I don't have enough strength left to deride your ignorant questions and half baked comments about unimportant trivia, or any of the rest of this drivel. Duh.
The only thing worse than your logic is your manners. I have snipped away most of your of what you wrote, because, well... it didn't really say anything. Your attempt at constructing a creative flame was pitiful. I mean, really, stringing together a bunch of insults among a load of babbling was hardly effective... Maybe later in life, after you have learned to read, write, spell, and count, you will have more success. True, these are rudimentary skills that many of us "normal" people take for granted that everyone has an easy time of mastering. But we sometimes forget that there are "challenged" persons in this world who find these things more difficult. If I had known, that this was your case then I would have never read your post. It just wouldn't have been "right". Sort of like parking in a handicap space. I wish you the best of luck in the emotional, and social struggles that seem to be placing such a demand on you.

So, fbc, what do you want to do, start a new thread, edit this thread back to the original "bofoor" thread, or go play outside? [I just woke up, late night of live music, I'm gonna make some coffee, smoke some smoke, download some pictures I took last night, and then come back here. By that time I hope we can get back to posting about "all things Frank"!]

Aw fuck, I had the complete opposite reaction [and I guessing you're being facetious]...what little bit I read [skimmed the first sentence of each paragraph], started to give me a headache so I quit, his post reminds me of the significant statements scrawled on the walls of public urinals!
But enough of that, let's get back to why we're here, shall we.

right, where was i, oh yeah...
The beauty of the Catholics recording live to two track is that they captured more than just the song, but also the post and pre-song licks and banter.

No nobody has come up with a name for the bofoor and after song stuff. Does it need it?
It sure does. And it's officially a 'bofoor'.

sounds like we got us a mission on
i'll take the first three catholic records and b-sides, you take the last three and b's
we'll meet back here in two weeks
EDIT:This thread may not interest the masses (AND MAY ONLY BE OF INTEREST TO ONE OTHER MEMBER WHO KNOWS WHO THEY ARE, AND IT'S NOT YOU) but is something i threatened to do a while ago and finally I have the time to follow through on my word.
So here it begins, and maybe ends, with these posts. Much appreciated if you could post any others while living your lives, but it's all good if not. I just had to get this out of my system

Frank Black and the Catholics
All My Ghosts - the Green Acres ditty at the start of the very first Catholic record is the most obvious bofoor we have. And the best bofoor ever(!) Fer sure!
Solid Gold - we have a little sniffle from the man at the end of the song, just after the feedback dies. And with tape still rolling we hear Scott's little drum roll.
Suffering - we got a quick lick then "are you ready?" for frank, who replies "Yeah!".
The Man Who Was Too Loud - "though he loved to rock and roll...ah, i better not."
Pistolero
I Love Your Brain - not a bofoor, but Scott hits the high hat during the guitar solo intro then stops as if he shouldn't be playing yet, then rejoins with the bass.
Smoke Up - again no bofoor (thread now well and truly debased), but during the last "got to make something work out" there's a noise(*) that sounds similar to the buzz made when touching the end of a guitar lead that's plugged into an amp.
(between "got * to" and some * thing)
Dog In The Sand
Robert Onion - the little ditty before main intro riff, and i'm sure Dave.P could have played out the end riff forever. Nice feedback noises at the very end.
Bullet - obvious bofoor with the "Alright!" at the very start, then the band jam with FB's chit-chat
Hermaphroditos - there's a drum fill towards the end of the outro jam (4:02) that usually drummers do to let the band know to end the song, but the rest of the Catholics carry on, so Scott does too. You can hear someone shout "Ay!" then they eventually stop.

i'm trying to get the word 'bofoor' into the Oxford English Dictionary with the help of this thread.
Right. I stole these quotes from wise oldman:
"Robert Onion" non-accoustic version on DOG IN THE SAND
At approx. 3:05 in to the song, after all the vocals, and just prior to the funky ending with all the synthesized sounds, you can hear Frank, Scott, or Dave (?) count off "1,2,3,4" but you have to turn it up to 11 to hear the "1,2..." the "3,4..." is obvious at a lesser volume.
Also two things from "Take What You Want" from the "Everything is New" single, the first sound you hear at the beginnig is the guitar and Frank says "Jimmy (?) Chimey (?) shimmy (?).

I hear, "Quick tune for me, sorry"...., check it out and let me know what you think...It that's correct it would appear that Frank wanted to do this one, not spend much time on it, but still do it, cause he wanted to, I guess he likes the song.

I saw this thread last night when I got home, fbc, I couldn't believe my tired, bloodshot eyes. I hadn't forgotten about our mission, but I hadn't really been working on it. Huge smile when I saw this thread.
OK, the pressure's on me, kinda of like a big exam at school, one you've known about for some time, but blown it off until the last minute.
I think I'll start by re-posting the one The Man responded to, remember, "the quick tune for me, sorry"? where Frank posted and explained he was referring to tuning his guitar in the studio before they recorded another one. Fuckin insightful, behind the scenes shit, huh!
[I may need a couple of hours before I can give this the proper attention it deserves, wife and kids are pulling at me now]

Oh yeah, you gotcha a "bofoor" there matto. I hadn't noticed that one before.
I'll tell you though, I hear, "Quick tune for me, sorry"...., check it out and let me know what you think...It that's correct it would appear that Frank wanted to do this one, not spend much time on it, but still do it, cause he wanted to, I guess he likes the song,(cover version of the original written by Lynval Golding of The Specials: http://thespecials.com/lyricview.php?sid=23) and afterall, he is The Man.
Hey FBC, matto's got him a bofoor, check it out.
I dig bofoors. They make me feel as if I'm sittin right there in the studio with 'em. I mean, you know, they don't have to leave that shit in there, but they do, and it adds so much flavor to it. I'll tell you something else that adds flavor to this song, and that is the countdown by, I assume, Scott on the drums and all the while you hear the hum from Frank's or Lyle's Guitar,...for me, it just doesn't get any better than that...Fuckin' Rock and Roll like it oughta' be.
[Oh yeah, let me provide a citation to the record for the term "bofoor", see "Rich Gilbert Chat Log - Apr 24 2005", Rich's response posted at 12:42:41 "No nobody has come up with a name for the bofoor and after song stuff...",...ergo, "bofoors"]
[And Frank says,]"referring to 'tuning' the guitar between takes..."
OK, there you have it, Frank quoting CoffeeCan, from the "Favorite Frank Improv thread started by Ramona http://forum.frankblack.net/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12692&whichpage=2
As you can read, I had a misunderstanding about what The Man was referring to in the "bofoor at the end of "Do Nothing". So, what happens? The Man reads the thread, reads my post, empathizes with my lack of understanding of what the bofoor really means, and our Gracious Supreme Sovereign comes down from on High, and enlightens us all as to the meaning of this bofoor. Fuckin incredible! Where else but here? Who else but The Man!

Hey fbc, what do you think, can you change back the name of the Thread to the original name "Bofoors Away" or something other than its present title?
