have you ever heard Carla Bozulich's "Red Headed Stranger"? It's a song-by-song cover of the Willie Nelson record, and everytime I listen to it I think of how Carla and you together would make the greatest music ever.
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...

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?]
 "If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominos will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate." |

Frnk, is the possibility of a residency tour (as rumoured a while ago) still/actually a possibility?
*keeps fingers crossed*
I LOVE RESIDENCIES. would love to...we'll see. |

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

Hey Frank,
Have you seen the Bruce Campbell movie "Bubba Ho-Tep" about Elvis being alive and well and living in an East Texas rest home? |

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.
