I was listening to nijmegin the other day - great little album, wish the bluefinger/svn fngrs tour came near me - and I was thinking what his setlist might look like now if he kept touring his Black Francis material. So, lets all take turns making a dream setlist (comprising of ONLY black francis songs) for a sequel to that live album to pass the time. Here's mine.
Captain Pasty Lake of Sin Get Away Oil Gyaneshwar Six Legged Man Half Man Lolita Threshold Apprehension You're Gonna Pay Discoteque Maharal Jet Pilot Blues I Sent Away Lonesome Fetter Don't Get Me Wrong Cinema Star - Encore - Corrina Stars When They Come to Murder Me
I know he played them as part of those tours but weren't Gyaneshwar and Don't Get Me Wrong part of Christmass (which was a Frank Black album iirc)?
Threshold Apprehension Get Away Oil Corrina Six Legged Man Test Pilot Blues Garbage Heap When I Go Down On You Polly's Into Me Astaroth Stars The Obedient Servant Wild Son Angels Come To Comfort You Your Mouth Into Mine Tight Black Rubber Dead Man's Curve Miriam And Florian Seven Fingers Tale of Lonesome Fetter O My Tidy Sum Oh How I Wish I Could Stay Custom All The Way The Maharal When They Come To Murder Me
Bad News Makanujo Captain Pasty You Can't Break A Heart And Have It Cinema Star
29 songs at about 1 hour 45 minutes. Disappointed at some of the songs I had to omit.
If I'm not mistaken Gyaneshwar and Don't Get Me Wrong were accredited to Black Francis in the liner notes - I remember at least a few of the new songs were (including Radio Lizards and Dead Man's Curve). Speaking of Radio Lizards what a song. Those Christmass tunes were incredible.
