Does anyone know when dates will be released? I'm anxiously awaiting a show in Madison, Wisconsin.

Hi,
Has anyone seen the Duke and Duchess at any of the Chicago shows??
TOUR DATES 07/23 at Grog Shop, Cleveland, OH tickets 07/24 Chicago, Subterranean (GRAND DUCHY) 07/25 Chicago, Wicker Park Festival (GRAND DUCHY) 07/27 Kansas City, MO, The Riot Room (SOLO ACOUSTIC) 07/29 at The Walnut Room, Denver, CO tickets 08/01 Boise, ID, Neurolux (SOLO ACOUSTIC)
Or his highness at some of the other stops along the way?
I wanted to go to Chicago so bad but it was too much $ to get down there and stay.
Anyway, if possible, I would love to live vicariously from all you cool frankophiles out there.
Merci. xoxoxo |

I just saw them at Subterranean in Chicago the other night. It was my first time seeing Frank Black even though I've been a fan for years. I had a spot right up front, less than six feet from the Man himself, and it was great. I don't remember the set list, and I didn't write it down. My friend, Stephanie, works for an online magazine called Gaper's Block and is writing a review for the show, though it isn't posted yet. She did take some pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/stephapelvis/ In the photo captioned, "The Back of Robert's Head & Grand Duchy," I am the Robert she is referring to. :) |

Thanks for the info Robert :) It's very cool you got to see the show. How cool was it that you were able to get up front like that?
I also really like Stephanie's photos. Hope I can read her article too :)
So what was the audience vibe like?

Eh, the vibe was mixed. I'd say most people seemed excited but there was the one jerk who yelled, "Play Gigantic!" and who kept yelling rude things at the sound guy while he was setting up. (they may not have been the same person) Surprisingly, the venue was only maybe half full or so. Maybe there aren't too many people who know that it's a Frank Black project. I don't know.
Oh, and you may have noticed on her Flickr account she has the picture she took of the set list. Here it is: Come on Over Strange Day Ma Carrefour Threshold Apprehension Seeing Stars Ermesinde Fort Wayne Long Song Break the Angels Lovesick Black Suit Volcano!
