VenturaCountyStar - Locey: Pixies leader carries around lots of aliases, but on Saturday in S.B. he'll be Black Francis.
Pasted up here.
The Santa Barbara Independent.
Positively State Street From White Buffalo To Black Francis
Thursday, October 11, 2007 by INDY STAFF
HERE COMES OUR MAN: Frank Black has never been one for staying on key. He spent six years howling and roaring his way into the limelight of international rock, helping to define a decade of music with a little help from the Pixies. More than 10 years after the premature death of the band, Black has resurrected his original stage name to release Bluefinger, his first visit back to his solo days since his eponymous debut in 1993. Breathe a sigh of relief, skeptics, because Black has again demonstrated his ability to stand without the Pixies. If you’re not convinced, see for yourself when Black Francis takes to the SOhO stage alongside Eastern Conference Champions on Saturday, October 13. Call 962-7776 or visit sohosb.com.

The Santa Barbara Independent (scroll down).
TO-DOINGS: In 2004, the legendary razor-edge punk-pop ‘80s band the Pixies made a celebrated return to action, landing at the Bowl and nicely shaking up the joint. Some hoped for a full-blown Pixies revival, which has yet to happen. Instead, irrepressibly creative leader Charles Thompson (a#8201;k#8201;a Frank Black, a#8201;k#8201;a Black Francis) returns with his latest project, now under the name of Black Francis.
Chameleonic and restless, always handy with a howl, a mixed metaphor, a slashing guitar part and an unexpected twist of chord or word, Thompson/Black/Francis is at it again. His new album is Bluefinger (Cooking Vinyl), a feisty and fun outing which should make for a rousing evening of noisy goodness when he plays at SOhO on Saturday.
Black Francis and Eastern Conference Champions When: Saturday, Oct. 13, 2007, 9 p.m. Where: SOhO, 1221 State St., Santa Barbara, CA Cost: $20 Age limit: 21+

mostly all Bluefinger songs plus The Water, Break My Body, Cactus, Moterway To Roswell.. the show was great but that Santa Barbara crowd doesn't deserve Frank Black
see my Los Angeles review for more a more detailed show review |
