Hi Frank! Isn't always the way that you have a million questions to ask, then when you get the chance you can't think of anything?! Ah well. Congratulations on the new baby and good luck with the house-move!

Hey Frank, can you tell us about Dead Man's Curve, what we're for now calling "The Rabbit Song", and "The Water"? They're not on Fastman Raiderman as far as we know, and, well, they're all pretty exciting sounding! Are these the demos you were working on? Are these tracks from an upcoming album with Schwarma or that other band that starts with a P? Solo stuff for work with EDF? Covers from songs received via Seti@Home?
Anyway, thanks for stopping in, it truly is appreciated more than you'll probably ever know, and I hope that you're getting some time at home before you go abroad with your guitar and 'wandering soles' once again.

bad plus-velouria-drum bass piano jazz cover!
i thought you would have heard it. so pretty, the type of shit that makes you cry.
they also do heart of glass. "alternative covers" are their schtick, but they have
serious chops. check back in a couple days if you have time, i'll try to make a yousendit file.
peace. |

Earlier in this thread, I said that I'd love to hear you cover "Book I Read" on Talking Heads '77. I've been spoiled since you answered two of my questions tonight, but I'm going to push this as far as I can and throw that request out there again.
That's it for me. Thanks again for the visit!

I hate to be the bearer (ha ha) of bad news (more ha ha), but I believe the Bear Land Jamboree is gone. But, there's always Chuckee Cheese for automoton fun.
YEAH. I HEARD THAT, TOO. CHUCK CHEESE HAS THAT? COOL. WE DON'T HAVE ONE OF THOSE ROUND HERE, THOUGH. I'LL HAVE TO WRITE TO THE PREZ... |

Frank, I've asked this before but just as you left the last chat...
You talked back in the Show Me Your Tears era about recording something with an orchestra... is that still something you'd like to do, or have your tastes changed? Recording with Eric is kind of like recording with a one-man orchestra anyway, I suppose. I really can't wait to hear this, nor can I believe that we're getting a double album in a few months and you're already slaving away on the next one.
Meanwhilst, do you ever listen to movie soundtracks? Any favourites? Favourite composers? I love John Williams. He and you share the slot for greatest musical inspiration.

Hi Frank,
As your touring to Australia as Pixies or solo is on hold for the moment, any chance Aus could maybe have an extra track for Fastman.Raiderman as a sweetener please... maybe I Don't Live Here Anymore? Thanks. Good luck with FMRM and your new EDF project.
