Quite a few pages about the band and "quotes" from crew etc..
quote:
Thompson went to lengths to keep the old days at bay. "Once Kim asked to see Frank Black," Wallace recalls,
"and Charles went through the guest-list and scribbled her name off. The girl just wanted to see him play because she think's he's the greatest songwriter alive."
I've never read that article, looks interesting. Do us a favor, scan the article and put into a .pdf. If you can't do .pdf, send me the raw scans and I'll do it and host the file.
BTW, in the US "Uncut" is a slang term for uncircumcised. |

Thanks. Looking forward to reading the article.
Yup, if you tried to sell that magazine in the US, people would think it was gay porno. |

Maybe if the target audience was 12 year olds...

I'm telling you the truth. You couldn't sell that magazine in the US using that title. Yes, Americans are that immature. |

I'd love Fissile to post a picture of his collection of newspaper cuts about the Pixies with Kim's head blackened with a sharpie, that's pinned to his basement wall.

to elaborate on that, I find it humorous, and ironic, that fissile makes fun of Pixies "fanboiz" and zealous fans in general, when he's scouring the Internet for every shred of Pixies gossip in the furthest corners of the most obscure blogs

I'm an American and the word "uncut" makes me think of uncensored movies.
I don't have many collectibles, other than a few vinyl records, most of which aren't rare.

You're obsessed with me, aren't you? You just can't help trolling all my posts. I'm sure you're a nice guy, with a good job and all, and it's not that I don't like you, but I just don't swing that way. I hope you're not too upset. |

Guys, can we keep the posting civil please. If you want a topic about the etiquette of fandom: how far is too far?, I invite you to start one and discuss it there. Meanwhile, this topic is for collectibles of which, I should mention, I have a few myself but I am clearly trounced by some of you guys. That cat has no business on that awesome TOTY poster. I want one great FB poster to put somewhere in my house, the ones I have (Pistolero era) were too promotional and not arty enough to qualify.

trolling your posts?
call me crazy but last i checked it was troll-ish to hang around a forum of an artist you don't like, just to talk trash about them, and their fans.
i'm actually a fan of Frank Black / Pixies. hence why i read this forum. also why i started this very topic. you seem to come here solely to talk shit about Kim Deal and Frank Black.
get another hobby fissile

| That would be an interesting topic, hearing from people who saw the Pixies the first time around and during the reunion. |

Yeah it would be great to hear their opinions. I wish I could have seen them the first time they toured the UK.
Ah tro I hope you can find the USB. I'll happily swap you one of these for it
