You guys may remember way back in October when a local journalist in Montreal mentioned the following (as kindly translated by Vilainde):
quote: Originally posted by vilainde
<<A rumour was spread that Frank Black may have a cameo in the new season of "The Invincibles". "Yeah, I was asked if I was willing to do a cameo in a French-Canadian soap opera. I said yes, absolutely, why not? It'll be a new experience to me. I don't know yet what they're gonna make me play. I might be the prodigal son coming back or some kind of estranged father who reappears to end a story, I don't know. I don't speak French very well. If they could make me have a line where I'd say 'L'addition s'il vous plait' in a restaurant...", he jokes.
On the stage of the Invincibles, they hesitated in confirming the rumour. Jean-François Rivard, writer and director of the popular series and big fan of good music and Pixies - and of Black Letter Days by FB&TC especially - walked on eggshells. "It's supposed to work, but I'll believe it when I see Frank Black finally appear over here."

Well, FB just appeared on the show tonight, at the beginning of the episode, greeting viewers with "Auparavant, dans Les Invincibles" ("previously on The Invincibles") while doing the dishes in the kitchen. Funny. The phrase was subtitled in French and his name was showing.
I haven't seen the whole show so I don't know if we hear a song or see something else FB related. |

Why is this not on YouTube yet? I ask merely for information.

To quote the late edbanky, he's turning into Kate Moss. Every time I see a picture of Frank Black, he's thinner. Lookin' good, dude.

Ok... I have more to say now.
There was a cover of Where Is My Mind? during the episode, towards the end. It was performed by http://www.kimbingham.com/ a local artist who used to be with the ska band Me, Mom & Morgenthaler in the early 90s. Check her out, she rawks quite a bit. She does the orginal score for the show, the opening theme is quite good. I sent an email to her to try figure out if this version of WIMM is available for the fan's hearing pleasure. Stay tuned! |

no hehe it's not joual, he's just rushing the words "auparavant" (earlier) and "invincibles" in a strange way.

Euh... it's me who posted that based on my humble understanding of the discussions here. Am I mistaken? |

Ha! I guessed that was someone from the forum but I didn't realize it was you. June is the release date for the best of, but I don't think there's ever been a mention of a release date for Bluefinger.

According to a very reliable source, Bluefinger should be out in September or so.

The Man mentioned in a now-deleted post that he expected "Bluefinger" to come out this summer, but wasn't any more specific. I think he should release "Bluefinger" first, though I doubt it's in his control. If it's a huge hit (in my cheese-driven dreams), that would then help the sales of the best-of.

Yes, FB first, then BF, it seems more logical.
