Wouldn't it be difficult for him to chase cars, if he had only one leg?

Just had an email from SpinArt...the date is no longer tentative!
No Catholics on this record it looks like, though...hafta wait a while longer for them to record some new stuff...
Frank Black Francis 2-CD Release Date: October 12
We'll let Pixies and Frank Black & the Catholics frontman speak for himself on this one.
"Sometime back in 1986 I think, the producer for what would become the Pixies first record, Gary Smith, asked me to drop by his apartment in the Allston section of Boston, just down the street from the building I was born in, to play some songs into his cassette walkman. He and the band were scheduled to go into Gary’s studio, the original Fort Apache in the Roxbury section of Boston, the following day to record "Come On Pilgrim", although it did not have a title at that time. Gary wanted to have some audio notes on the songs for the session. We were both excited about the session, to take place over three days; my father had given me the 1000.00 dollars to pay for it. One of the cd’s in this package is that tape. A few years ago a couple of record companies had expressed interest in releasing the tape, kind of a time capsule thing, and I signed some papers.
The project sat around for a couple of years, mostly because my manager, Ken Goes, and I always felt a little uncomfortable about releasing only that tape to the buying public, as it was not a planned performance, a little casual, and very bootleg in sonic quality. Sure, the uberfans would be happy enough about the content, but we both felt that a potential new fan might feel a bit ripped-off. Ken suggested I re-record some of the old repertoire in some new way, especially a well recorded way, so as to balance this product out a bit. I realize some fans or critics might feel like I’m messing with the gospel here, but really these are the reasons for all these recordings here and now.
I first met the Two Pale Boys, Andy and Keith, at a gig some years ago in West Hollywood, the trumpet and guitar members of that trio formed with David Thomas. When David asked me to perform at UCLA as part of his Mirror Man improv-opera in early 2003, Andy and Keith were in the band again, and I asked them to come down on their one day off to record with the Catholics on Show Me Your Tears. The two pale fellows from England offered their studio and input on some undefined project in the undefined future. In the hot summer of 2003, July I think, I went down to the Hackney section of London and belted out the numbers and let the boys do their thing. Those sessions represent the other cd. I enjoy their work, with me or with others. I like these guys a lot. Sure, we’ve messed with the gospel, but I am satisfied with it. "

I have heard rumours whispered on the winds and carried in the streams about some brand new FB material to come after Honeycomb. I can't say what, as I don't know... this is, in fact, all I do know, but it comes from a very reliable source.
I speculate however, or was led to believe this new material was not, in fact, Pixies material, but another FB project. Catholics? Solo? I don't know. The end is not nigh, though, I don't think...

It's all so frustratingly mysterious. But I'll hang on forever for the man.
Thanks for posting those quotes.

No way! You mean, like, Frank's not retiring after Honeycomb is released? He's gonna keep on playing music instead of starting working on real estate? Can't believe it!
(Just kidding. I just find your rumour a bit funny)

Hee hee, I mean that he's not stopping with the solo stuff. This new project is not a Pixies one...

I've Been Tired is track 12, and Break My Body is track 13. Otherwise, the track listing looks correct.

A reliable source tells me that Frank's new album will include the lyric "I have heard rumours whispered on the winds and carried in the streams " and that the CD liner notes will credit Dean for co-writing the yet-to-be-titled song.
(Just kidding, people.)

I have no source. And little to no patience left waiting for some fresh Catholics (my favorite kind). Just having some fun before nap time. Nighty night.

It's kinda' funny, I don't think he means that they're broken up, just that he's seeing what happens.

| Don't you mean "he's seeing other bands at the moment"? Maybe it's not a breakup, just some time apart--you know... |
