This is G/PG rated.

I mostly listen to FB/FB&TC's at work- so that's like 90%
The I listen to his music when I am cleaning or doing stuff around the house then I will (depending on my mood) sing along, dance or just rock out.

So what do you do??

I listen to most of my music when I'm hanging around on the computer, and Frank is no exception. Frank also provides good driving music.

I usually end up singing along and wondering what it would be like to be in the recording studio with him and the other guys.

Uh.. Mr. Belvedere is.. the light of my life. Um.. I know I speak for the others.. uh, when I say he is.. so amazing.. you know? And, uh.. he's just.. I wish.. you know.. I wish I could know him more, you know? Because.. he.. he is one of a kind, you know? He's.. I think about him all the time, and.. well, I'm wondering - should we kill him?

this is what I do when I listen to WESTERN STAR

Now I'm headed skyward
Standing up on piles of plywood
And all I think about is how I
Look like Heroes-period Bowie
And my figure blocks the light
And I take away the night
And I'm dancing to the new bolero

(in my dreams or better yet maybe for my upcoming birthday)I take a long erotic weekend with my sweet-thing in an old, long-forgotten, downtown hotel...

If I'm alone I will probably sing along. I usually listen to Frank walking to school or on the bus downtown. I was actually listening to Honeycomb while cleaning my room today!

My first post on the site...
Hello everyone!

I usually take a shot and jump on the couch.
Or have been drinking and end up dancing on the couch.
At any rate, it usually involves a combination of feeling good and dancing a lot when no one is watching.

:) Welcome Jillian and Lester! Make your selves at home and stay awhile!!

I agree couches are a cool place to listen to FB. It now give me an idea to listen to his music alone in my big bed when I am working on my laptop. (I really don't work on my laptop in bed but I couldn't miss the FB song lyric refrence)

I listen Frank when on my computer and usually when walking to and from college. I love walking down a really quiet street whilst listening to Honeycomb. Very relaxing.
I probably listen to Frank/Pixies for 4 or 5 hours a day...and it never gets boring, that's what's so great about his music, there are so many different styles that it can suit any mood I'm in.

I agree.
I also listen to Frank when driving but I prefer when I have nothing to do because I can enjoy his music fully, just listening and thinking of nothing else.

I'm usually at home when I listen to Frank, because I can really crank up the volume to 11. Ofcourse I sing along, and test my knowledge of the lyrics. Getting nicely toasted is a plus...

i grab a pen and paper then critique every note and word:

that chord should be a minor
the verse don't rhyme
too country
too twangy
too this too that

If i can't find anything to moan about,
i shout at the stereo like i do the tv, cursing the production.

or is that U2?

Frank's music, good as it is, doesn't really seem conducive to the old "in-out, in-out". Hard for me to imagine being eased into the mood with "I Switched You" crankin' on the Hi Fi.

Dog In The Sand goes down a treat during any road trip.

Honeycomb should work well in the bedroom. Just be sure to be done before Violet kicks in.

I was travelling a lot. So Frank was in my ear as i passed Los Andes between Argentina and Chile. I remember listening to Manitoba and watching this hudge montains. Frank is defenetly my best friend when i'm travelling alone..

Hey Oldmaninacoffeecan, i was searching for this b-side record of "schow mw your tears" with a Rolling Stones song on it. I couldn't find one. Frank is very unknown in Argentina..you gived this advice quite a time ago...and i forgot to say thank you. So, thank you..

Hey Brother endofmiles, you're quite welcome.

If you still haven't found it, then email me.
Just go to my profile here and you'll find my email address

Frank covering the Rolling Stones song "DOWN IN THE HOLE" on the "Everything is New" Single.

Damn, that version by FB&TheC's is incredible. One of my all-time favorite Frank songs.
It's on the same level as SNAKE OIL (on the "Nadine" UK Single).

Yep, I could listen to DOWN IN THE HOLE and SNAKE OIL all day, every day.
