I think you're thinking kinky daisy, or are you saying Violet is bawdy?

thanks d, and sorry frank, i was meaning it in a sweet and innocent way and i was trying to stand up for violet. not like she needs standing up for because she doesn't. just being friendly not stupid like the way it came across.
i'm sorry  |

Hey Charles,
I'm listening to your new record 2-3 times a day. The songs are slowly coming to me. It's cool when they hit- kinda like those early 90's "magic 3-D pictures" that were so popular. You stare at the damn things long enough, and finally you get it (minus the headache, of course). Another great bunch of songs and more great songwriting. Thank you.
So, I'm liking the new record more and more, and I'm so thankful you take the time to chat with us about stuff now and then, so I don't want this question to sound too pushy or anything like that because it just popped into my head. But, what kind of approach are you considering for the next (EDF?) record- as in live to 2, or more of a tracked production like your earlier solo efforts? Or, ?.

For a second there I thought you meant Public Service Announcement by The Bravery, instead of
"p.s, Announcement is the greatest song..." I was thinking "What does that have to do with anything?"
PSA is a good song though.

I know you're a Mr. Show fan. Have you seen Arrested Development? If not, did you know that David Cross played a major character on the show, and Bob Odenkirk, John Ennis, Jerry Minor, and Jay Johnston all played small roles? By the way, if you haven't seen Arrested Development, I highly recommend getting the DVDs and watching them when you have time to kill on the tour bus. You'll be hooked after the first couple of episodes. |

Yo Frank and friends,
Always a pleasure hearing a new FB album. Been a fan for nearly 20 years now--time flies, eh? Anyway I dig what the dude was saying about the songs "coming to him." Frank Black albums seem to take form in the heart of the listener over time. At least for me, they slowly infect the brain and heart, like a very complicated virus oozing in with a sublime affect. Totally awesome. My current faves are "When your Poison Gets you," "Fare Thee Well," "Can't Crucify Yourself," "Sad Old World," "Don't Cry that way," man about five more beyond that but I don't need to babble. Ya'll know the man kicks ass, that's why you're here. I don't need to prove how damn good these new songs are, you know all about it. Anyway, thanks Frank, and thanks for moving to Eugene! (fellow citizen). How's dadhood goin?

Frank,
you started what Greg Dulli, QOTSA and others came along and finished a little while later and I can't imagine anything more exciting than a collaboration on a Twilight Singers or Desert Sessions recording. Any chance/interest/comment? The closest I've seen is the Pixies bio/radio program Homme narrated.
except maybe you and david gilmour together heh
thanks for coming and holding court

Frank,
Thanks for putting out Fastman Raiderman. I didn't really like Honeycomb last year. Too different from what i am used to. But I love Fastman Raiderman and it has helped me to appreciate Honeycomb. And Now I really like Honeycomb! I was afraid of the musical direction you might go into, and now I'm not. You have helped me to appreciate other music. Thanks

| FB - I think Fastman Raiderman is outstanding and appreciate its breadth and depth. I'm really digging all the Massachusetts references as a lifelong Bostonian. Unfortunately, I won't get to see you at the Ratskeller, but the Beachcomber will do just fine. |

hey frank,
fmrm is really growing on me. thanks for all the songs! and enjoy the family vacation this summer! sounds like it will be a blast.
so, like many others, i think you're a truly amazing songwriter. i really enjoyed broken face’s comments about st. francis dam disaster on one of the podcasts. i have a new found appreciation for that song after listening to brian's take on it. absolutely beautiful and well crafted song. it flows real nicely! so then I was reading the lyrics to the swimmer. another song that i really admire. i had read on the fb.forum that someone had suggested that maybe the song is about the folk singer gamble rogers who drowned off the coast of florida in 1991 trying to save a drowning man. a really tragic and sad story. any comments? if it is not about gamble, can you provide any info on the song? thanks.

so Frank,
any chance you could prove the doubts wrong (its listed you will be there on this site but nowhere else) about the Atlanta show at our humble drive-in September 2nd? Dave Thomas and Reid Paley will be there along with (cough) Blue Oyster Cult and burlesque girls and herses...movies...and much more...see for yourself....
http://www.starlightdrivein.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=main.events
it will be fun!
please? you asked for requests.

| Hi Frank, off the wall question here, but I saw a random weird video of you and a couple of fake british cops that went through your cd collection and questioned you about it. I don't know how long ago that video was recorded, but in one of the first shots, your cd case is open to the Beach Boys album Smiley Smile. I've always dug that album. Did you get a chance to hear Brian Wilson's Smile? It's crazy how he went back to it after so many years and just wrapped it up. By the way, I'm loving the new album. |

Hey Frank.
Thanks for the excellent FMRM. I can't think of a song I like more than Raider Man.
Any chance of a European tour? If not, how about a non-Pixies dvd?
Ever thought of covering (Roky Erickson's) If You Have Ghosts?

Hi Charles,
Just wondering how you think things are going so far out on your flattop tour. That, and any other stuff you want to talk about. I'm pretty sure all of us would like to hear your personal take on the experience so far with the fam and all.
Loving that new record. I popped it in during a party we had at my house last night and everybody really liked it. One guy even called me today to remind him of it's title so he could go buy it. Great songs. |

Just out of curiosity, did you name your first born after "Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts"?

Wouldn't it be real easy for him to prove he's actually Frank Black?
I mean, he could take a picture of himself holding up something random, like pack of coffee or something?
Pretty easy to place a link to it on the forum.
That would work, right?
Or, even better, send one to me!
By the way, I saw the Pixies at Lowlands festival and it was the best show I ever been to. I fully intended to scream along with every little line, but me and my friends've been singing the Pixies all weekend so when the show began my throat was as raw as...uhm... something else that's really really raw. I did manage to squeek along for a bit though. |

Oh, and one question. Is Into the white going to get tabbed soon?
All I can find are either incomplete or faulty ones. I know the song is real easy, but I'm not much of a guitar player (yet!). |

There's no question (not since page 2) that this is FB. It has been verified many times since then as well.
