There are so many people that have a following of only those who personally know them. A lot of these people are very kind and pleasant to be in the presence of. Therefore, being noteworthy should, imo, not be a factor that determines whether or not a person is good.
Ice Cream great response but by your criteria I am not noteworthy YET (I haven't had a Bio written about me) although many find some of my accomplishments noteworthy. I never suggested being noteworthy would have anything to do with a person being good, bad, or other. I was met here with an onslaught of judgement. I felt it was born from my attackers insecurties and lack of accomplishment in their personal lives.
Not being a contempt prior to investigation type guy I was giving my attackers a chance to share what, if ANYTHING, in their life made them feel as if they were special. Given most response I am going to assume it could only be crack.

Mroocore, bless you my child. For you kindness may I offer you a free consultation on any problem area in your life.
Which of the accomplishments I listed do you find least un-noteworthy? With people on this forum being so secretive, who knows, there could be other Skateboard and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu champions lurking. As well, with all the musicians here I'm sure lots of them are in bands that sold out a major venue their first show. Right? (What show?)
Hey forum, is there another Gracie Jiu-Jitsu fighter out there? |

Questions questions questions. This place makes me feel terrible for Frank.
It would be freaky having a fan base that was mostly posers and geeks. |

| This is the internet Mad Dawg. So why does it suprise you to find that we (I include you in this) are all posers and geeks. I wouldn't let it make you worry about Frank though. He (unlike you) has never seemed too concerned about his fan base and what others think of him. |

I think a guy who writes songs with titles like "Distance Equals Rate Times Time" can pretty much expect a large geek following.

I am new to the internet. I started out on, and frequent, another forum that is more reality based. For you to think I care what people here think of me could only mean you're another Frank Black fan that exsists in an unusual reality. |

also, for the sake of argument (which it seems like that's all you want to do here), how can you hold the capacity record at a music venue? isn't there a maximum capacity, and, if a venue sells out, it has reached it's maximum capacity? i'm sure every venue in LA sells out at least once a month..
can you explain how that's possible?

Skateboarding Jiu-Jitsu, who gives a shit really (thats if you are even telling the truth. I won the leading goalscorer medal in the 1997/98 5-aside football tournament. You think anyone cares except the people who were there, or me. No. Noteworthy? to me and about 4 other people in 1998. As with all the cunts who post here as soon as people catch on that your a waste of time, you will be ignored and you will disappear. You think I'll be thinking, oh man I wish that guy who had done all that cool stuff still posted here. Now if you were in a punk band that I gave a shit about, then maybe. As you weren't, well.....

Floop argue? All I've done is try to answer some questions and figure out who some of you are and what you do. The person who initially directed me to the site said Musicians post here. I sort of liked Frank and the Pixies. It turned out to be not at all what I imagined. According to Malax, the forum psychic who knows what I'm thinking, (biggest idiot so far) you aren't even interested in me or stories. Are you just asking the questions to start an argument?
Anyway, as for the attendance it's kind of a funny story. I instructed our security (Wille and Skip from the famous biker gang) to take over the door. The bouncers were terrified of them and let them do whatever they wanted. We would cram the clubs full, (whisky Roxy and Starwood) people on top of people. Sometimes the fire marshall did show up. The only place to get a ticket was the Starwood. The cops actually put tear gas in the air vent on the roof to clear the building. This, and a couple of our riots, were pretty well documented in the LA times.
Or, you can ask Mario, the dude who owns the Whisky and the Roxy. I went in there a couple of years ago to say hi. He bought me dinner etc and reminded me of some funny stories. He claims bands pay him to play there now. Pretty strange huh? He didn't use to give us much. The most he ever paid us was 5 grand, which he claimed was twice what he paid ANYONE else. They were fun clubs to play back then though and it wasn't about the money. Our performance in URGH was shot at the Whisky. (Was anyone else here in Urgh?)
The skateboard thing was in 1976 in Ocean City Maryland. I have a pretty cool framed picture of me on the front page of the paper getting my award. I didn't win the freestyle/trick thingy. (I placed 3rd). I won the downhill. Pretty good performance considering I borrowed a chicks skate and hadn't skated in a couple of months (was recovering from a broken arm)
If you're a skater you might have heard of Jay Adams. He grew up at the bottom of the hill I lived on. I would imagine I'm the first human he ever saw on a skateboard.
Oh well, I'm getting bored talking about myself and so far none of you seem to have anything to talk about. Have a nice weekend.

It's one thing to accomplish such feats in your life. It's another to have accomplished them and not be a 'holier than thou' prick such as yourself. Accomplishments don't make you who you are. Your personality and the way you put yourself forth makes you, and you surely seem to be lacking in that department. Perhaps someday you can add "being a decent human being" to your list of noteworthy accomplishments; or is that too much of a stretch?

El Barto I think your perception of me as a "holier then thou" stems from some sort of self esteem/insecurity problem you, and seemingly many others here are suffering. Once again, I introduced myself and wondered who/what everyone else here did/was doing. I didn't know it was a fantasy website where self disclosure was frowned upon.
After re-reading some of the threads I started I would like to apoligize for lumping in people that haven't even posted responses to me in the same catagory as the 5 or 6 forum idiots I initially chose to communicate with. I'm sure Frank has herds of fans that don't suffer from justifiably low self esteem and are proud of who they are and what they have done/are doing with their lives. |

i'm extremely proud of who i am, and i think its great that you're proud of yourself too. however, i would not be proud of attacking others annonymously over an internet message board as something that a "noteworthy" person would do. to me, the fact that you broke fire code (which put lots of people in danger) is nothing to really brag about. and i would have to agree with jim that you do come off as "holier than thou." perhaps its not intentional, but it does come off that way.
but hey, i'm all for second chances and this is getting really petty. so hopefully we'll all grow up (myself included) and stop the petty bickering. what is this, a weezer board?

I'm happy for you being proud of who you are Broken Face. And, You're 100% correct. It would be hard to imagine that the anonymous little gadflies that were attacking me have much to be proud of. Perhaps that's why they chose to remain anonymous keyboard heros despite my self disclosure (posted my website, with pictures) and repeated attempts at figuring out who/what posted here. By the way, who are you? Have you done anything noteworthy or are you plannng such? |

I feel that my life, for who i am, is quite noteworthy. I have many great friends, a really amazing family, a wonderful girlfriend, i'm in a band that i enjoy playing with, and i'm healthy. What more could i ask for? To me, being "noteworthy" is a matter of living up to your potential, and i think that i have thus far. Being only 21, i still have a long way to go, but for being who i am, my memories tell me that so far my life has been, by my own standards, quite noteworthy. You'll probably disagree, but hey, thats life.

Face, you sound healthier than most here so far. Health is important. So are memories. Is your band for fun or do you have aspirations/dreams of, or are already, making a living playing music?
As for noteworthy I don't think it has anything to do with living up to ones potential. I think that would have more to do with self esteem. To me noteworthy would be things other people notice and talk/write about.

Oooooh...I understand now. You're an attention whore...and the only moments that are noteworthy in your life are times when other people noticed you? That's very sad, actually. You can't live life thinking that the only important things you've accomplished are things that people comment on. If you judge your life from someone else's point of view...well...that's pathetic, really.

Mad Dawg, please read this carefully:
I don't think that even 1/4 of the people on this forum (due strictly to statistics) will make it to the point where they are "noteworthy" by your standards, where many people talk or write about them. That is just being realistic. Who knows? I could be wrong. But even if I'm right, why should they worry so much about it? Not everyone is meant to be famous. I highly doubt that I will ever be. I don't consider that to be a shortcoming. You specifically do seem to be obsessed with being "noteworthy" and sometimes it comes across as your being desparate to be accepted by what is to you (perhaps) a more valid crowd than anybody else. ("anybody else" being the people who have not done anything "noteworthy.") Is that the highest trait by which you value someone?
Take me, break me, tell me a good one and maybe I'll cry

Ah, but just remember: if you don't take into ANY consideration what people other than yourself say, you're just being conceited and egotistical; you are implying that only your comments have any merit. Sometimes it's good for people to be apprised of your accomplishments; that way, they can recommend you.
