| I have heard that Frank Black had enough to live off modestly from Pixies royalties prior to reuniting....I wonder how much they stand to make in this reunion. Enough for all members to be independently wealthy? |

Don't forget the 3% they are making off the disclive shipping charges, that should boost their earnings to at least $17,480,050.67 each!

| In a radio interview last year, Frank said his asking price to reform the Pixies was $5 million (after tax), and that the other members would all have a price. So I guess they're doin' alright. |

Does that include tax? Can they also get free government cheese? |

I have a question? Who is the Pixie that desperately needs this money to force the others to make a reunion?
I choose Joey.

Joey has gone on record on more than one occasion as saying that he didn't think the band should split up - that they had at least one more album in them, so I think that whilst him and Dave might assumedly have done the least well from being a Pixie, he would of been keen for a reunion for all the "right" reasons before the financial ones.

No, it does not include tax.
Canadian sales tax calculation is a mystery, with its origins, I believe, in the Bible book of Revelation.

I think that's part of the Canadian sales tax formula. Can any Canadians verify this?

As a proud Canadian, living in my igloo and moose hunting/beaver trapping to feed my family, I can honestly say that the cheese stands alone, eh?
As for fbf's original question, I've been kinda wondering same. It's easy to blow large wads of instant cash - didn't Kim do that after last splash, for example? So I don't think touring alone will set them up for life. If my own experience is anything to go by, TV/movie royalties are IT baby! I make more royalty $ in 2004 from a few songs released in 1995 licensed to TV and movie productions because of international cable channels than I ever did from touring or radio airplay. New material is a good move, a few more license deals, merch, they could e-bay their used <I was gonna say underwear, but anything would do - you'd buy something>, etc... multi-income streams that will go on and on. |

I think you have to live in the US to get free government cheese...It's actually pretty good...
MMM...I've heard of edible panties...but not government cheese flavored so I doubt if Kim or any other of the Pixies have cheese flavored panties...but you never know!! |

I think Joey come's from money, if I'm not mistaken (though I frequently am)and if anyone saw the "Scientific Phenomenalist" show (which I loved) that Lovering was doing a while back (did he show you the wedding rings that he gets from the resort beaches with the metal detector?) then maybe you'd agree he might be the one who'd need this most of all.... but...
I doubt it's a "the Who-like" issue with one of the members needing money.... they just don't seem like that sort of people. Maybe if the story I read on another forum post...
http://forum.frankblack.net/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8521
about Kim faxing FB her "SoundScan" reports, or whatever they're called, then I could see her being this type of person, but she was the one with the MTV last splash recognition, and should have put some cash away)
What's my point? I don't know... don't think that this is all because Joey needed money. That's my point. The rest is just gravy. |

There's a lot of interviews through the net where Frank says he never get the Pixies back until he desperately needs the money. I'm sure he'll do it for Joey too. But, with Frank, you never know.
