you know, since the first time I heard it, I thought My Favorite Kiss would be a great FB duet with Willie Nelson. Conversely, i think FB would sound great on Willie's She is Gone.




Hey tobafett, I concur with your suggested duet of Charlie and Willie
and / or Willie and Charlie...

but, I especially enjoyed your use of the word "conversely"...
well done...

Probably not. But the sheet music's there if you want it.

Hi Charles,

If I'm not mistaken, you take tube amps out with you when you tour. I have alot of trouble getting the same tone out of my tube amps night after night. Is there a secret to storing them overnight? Or maybe electrical differences in each club that may require a conditioner or something? Do you use a conditioner? Shampoo? Do you like turkey? Sorry....

Hi Frank!
I'm sure this has already been decided but.....
I really hope One More Road for the Hit and Snake Oil are released on CD.
I got both from iTunes yesterday and I'm really enjoying them!
Thanks!

Sigur Ros' album '()', but as you say, massively pretentious (which I like), and it does sort of have song titles, apparently.

I vote for notes like you get on the back of old LP's, written by some nutter talking about how this one's a ballad, this one's a rocker.


I have joined the Cult Of Frank/And I have dearly paid

I second that motion. Notes about songs = good.

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.

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.
