He's talking about the reunion (of course), the catholics, well, a lot of things. Interesting...
But i cannot see the videos cos' i use a macintosh. Too bad.

Cheers Speedy Franky. got the same problems with the mac but the interview is kinda fun. i always love reading franks quotes:

MTV: I know you've been asked this a million times, but did you ever think this reunion would happen?
Black: I wasn't anticipating it, no. I was sort of dead-set against it, but oh well. I lied.

Once you go Black....You never go back!

Hmmmmm......

MTV: Do you miss your old band, the Catholics, at all?

Black: Not really. At the moment, I'm still quite enjoying having other people pick up my amplifiers for me and tune my guitars for me and playing to 10,000 people [who are] screaming my lyrics back at me. I can't deny it, it's pretty cush. [He laughs.] So yeah, I'm not missing anything. I'm quite happy bringing home the bacon.

That Bam Thwok video left me grinning from ear to ear. It looks like Kim is a little embarrassed by it. And Dave's trick is pretty impressive. I haven't had the pleasure of seeing his scientific phenomenalist show.


Hey nuclear war and a hot bed of trouble, make with the pennance, repent on the double.

MTV: Are you worried about how it will blend with your rock-star life?

He has a Rock Star life?

I think the press coverage is really good. It's great the Pixies are getting this attention. But for some reason, the interviewer didn't seem very knowlegable about the Pixies or Frank's career. The interviewer just seemed kinda clueless.

I think it could have been a lot better if he would have asked better questions. However, Frank did a good job of keeping it interesting. That's cool he likes jazz and classical music too.

Also the picture link to the Fineline photos has 7 pictures of the Band Saliva. I know Kim doesn't look like any of these guys.

You should be able to punch these URLs into Windows Media Player. You can at least use these URLs to extract the location of the WMV files.

Frank's best line came when he was asked if he's a Nirvana fan: "I don't really know their records. I know their hits when I walk into a grocery store."

Thanks SF.

Strange - the guy doesn't even mention 'FrankBlackFrancis', which is about to come out...

Good job, sprion, that was the only I had found to open those links...

Rita, Open Windows Media Player (be sure you're online), Apple (command) U, cut/paste in one of the links sprion's listed...it should buffer up then play...

good luck...

Dave's magic trick is neato!

I'm using Media Player 9, yet I doubt that's the issue for me. I'm on a 56k connection, so no videos for me.
