Just got off a flight to LA and noticed in the Southwest Airlines magazine (next to my barf bag)was a little blurb on the upcoming Pixies reunion. Frank is pictured behind the wheel of, what appears to be, a pale yellow vintage Cadillac...
in some old interview i read, like 94-96, he drove like a lincoln town car or something big like that. it was somehting about thim and the johns (tmbg) driving around. sounded funny.
he has an old Cadillac that color. there's a picture of the Catholics and him in it circa Dog In The Sand. and i've seen other pics of him in it / read him mention it in articles.
John Flansburgh had mentioned having the honor of driving between gigs with Frank in his canary yellow Caddilac once upon a time. And I believe I also read an article from way back when saying that between tours for Doolittle and Bossanova Frank and his girlfriend roadtripped around the country in the same Cadillac and Frank plugged his guitar into a little amp and played Pixies songs whereever he could to pay for gas. I wish knew where the original article could be found.
