Q: Say, the Pixies were a Boston band, but you live out west. You still feel any attachment to this place?

A: Sure. It Boston. It's where I was born. It's New England. It's the other place in my life.

Check. Mate.

Not to give Floop any more credence for his theory, but this interview must have been "mangled" at least somewhat, unless Frank actually said, "It Boston."

Floop makes a good point. From one standpoint, I would have more respect for him if he acknowledged the mere possibility that Frank could be born in Boston. From another standpoint, I respect floop more than I would if he weren't so unswayable. He's like a diamond. A 10 on the Mohs scale. Can't be scratched.

In that way he's like our president. As Nomeansno once said: BE STRONG. BE WRONG.

Terribly trunk? So you're supporting a tree?

I've always thought that the way Frank pronounces "water" in "St. Francis Dam Disaster" is Bostonian in its dropping of the 'R'. Otherwise, he doesn't sound like he's from these parts.

Hey thanks for posting the link to this most recent interview of The Man, post-December Japan Tour.

That's funny about Frank getting pulled over by Border Patrol in El Paso with pinatas in his car. "the man" was a big fan of The Man!
