So, I just tried posting on it for shits and giggles but got a message returned to me...RIP abstract plain . . .- me (cigarettebuttbeach) and (gasp) Malta. as if anyone remembers...
Unrelated, I think Bluefinger is franks best release in years! However, if I had one complaint it would be that Pasty wre the second track and Threshold the first. Anyone Anyone? |

Welcome Lauren. Yes, I switched them too. Threshold is a great kick starter like Debaser and Pasty leads better into Test Pilot.

I joined both of those mailing lists shortly before the forum came into being, which means I didn't have a chance to see either of them in their heyday. I still get spam mail from at least one of them, though.

Ohh yes, Frankblackforpresident
do you remember the great site:
www.frankblacksuperstar.de ?
and the Black Vault?
Those sites were great pre-frankblack.net

Oh yeah. I forgot about them. It's nice that everything got centralized here. This is the VHS ( vs. Beta Max) or Microsoft of Frank Black sites. |

Pasty is a brilliant opening track. The riff, and the build up to the drums crashing in... it's a perfect rock song.

Frankblackforpresident sucked! The AbstractPlain ruled.
At the risk of sounding really old... Was anybody here a member of the iMusic Bulletin Board? That was pre-AbstractPlain.

it's not just how old you are, but how geeky you are. i mean, not that many people were using the internet that much all those years ago...
I like to complain |

spending hours on the net doesn't make you a geek now?

The iMusic BBS started in '99, when Pistolero got released. As they say: "You don't KNOW, you weren't THERE!"
