Frank, could you please clear up whether or not you're in contention for the England job.

quote:
FRANCIS IS SURPRISE ENGLAND CANDIDATE

It is perhaps not the wittiest headline in this morning's journals, but it is certainly the most unexpected. Yes, Francis is, according to The Independent a dark horse to succeed Sven Goran Eriksson. Which provokes all sorts of questions in WTPS-land. Francis who, being the first one. Trevor Francis? Black Francis, aka Pixies frontman Frank Black?


thanks.

Let's drink until we can't feel feelings anymore.


find a good tube amp repair person and keep it maintained i would say...conditioner not necessary with crew-cut...shampoo for fun...turkey good but no eat anymore since i became 'fish-a-tarian"

Hey FB, good evening to you too. How are you doing and what's been going on?

[EDIT - And, of course, do you have a tracklist for the second half of Fastman Raiderman? Is that new song you listed below from there?]

You have a LOT of songs that are (or at least appear to be) women's
names. I've always wished there was a song called 'Kelly.' It would
be great if you could do that someday!

FB, from what I remember you're user of the iPod (or at least a similar portable MP3 device)... How do you feel about the RIAA's recent claim that ripping CDs to iPods doesn't come under Fair Use? http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/archives/004409.php

Everytime I sing this to myself, I screw up the words and start singing "Oh Sherry."

Frank, get back on the road, please. I can't wait. You, a guitar, and a mic is sufficient. Any more than that is icing.

How about this in a country march beat 70 bpm:


O' the (G)cow kicked Kelly in the (C)belly in the barn,

O' the (G)cow kicked Kelly in the (D)belly in the barn,

O' the (G)cow kicked Kelly in the (C)belly in the barn,

O' the (D)cow kicked (C)Kelly in the (G)barn. (C G)

(Then, big rock show Van Halen ending w/ pyro and confetti....)

Newfoundland folk mp3s, cool! I was trying to trace down Belle Isle and I take it this is where you first came across it? Really enjoy that song, actually both b-side compilations are terrific. I've already heard most of the songs, but hearing them together like that is great, and some different versions of existing songs, too. Thanks.

You must be getting excited for the upcoming addition to the home? April, I think? The little guy must be getting not-so-little by now, too. Congrats and good luck with your brewing and look forward to hearing these demos somewhere down the road.

If I walked up to a car in front of a flooring store and noticed that Frank was sleeping inside, I would really have to be cool, y'know, really get it together, and just walk away. I would REALLY want to knock on that window and say, "HEY CHARLES! HEY DUDE, YOU ROCK!" But the guy answers every question I have for him on this forum. Why the hell bug him when he's sleeping?

I would, however, wake O.J. Simpson up. Just to flip him off through the glass or whatever. Same with the guy from Nickelback. That's just me...

Mr. Frank: Can you give us any info regarding your upcoming appearance with Moris Tepper on the Henry Rollins Show? What can we expect? Your stuff? Tepper's stuff? A mix?

Also, "St. Francis" deserves a live workout one of these days.

According to a Google search, "ishist" is the number six in Ukrainian. I doubt that's relevant, though.

It really sounds from context like it would be something from science fiction.
