TOTY tour mentioned here as well: https://wickedmessenger.com/march-16-blog-links-post/
quote:
However, just a few hours ago, I was told personally by one of the musicians who both played on Frank Black Francis’ triumphant, genre-bending 1994 double-album TEENAGER OF THE YEAR, as well as toured with him upon its release, that there are also plans underway for a brief 30th Anniversary “Reunion Tour” celebrating the release of that legitimately stupefyingly accomplished and ballsy record.
quote:
While “details are still being worked out,” it appears that all the principals are on board for this undertaking – including bassist Eric Drew Feldman , drummer Nick Vincent, and guitarist Lyle Workman.
quote:
Though not officially acknowledged or announced, literally while I was speaking with my friend, these plans were corroborated by FBF himself to another highly trusted mutual acquaintance, so – barring any unforeseen hindrances – it would seem this tour is a go!
all i can say, thank god for polio! brian |

Certainly very exciting. Looked like Charles' brother also corroborating it in that thread too?
Interesting to see if EDF is on bass or keys. The latter are such a prominent part of that record. |

| I am as excited right now as when I first heard about the Bossanova/Trompe shows! Which I am getting to see in about 8 hours from now!!! I seem to be in a permanent state of excitement. |

Hope very much there'll be a UK date or two... |

Thanks for the kind words.
I am told no shows outside of the USA are planned, and that it will likely be a very limited number of dates.
But hey, who knows? A lot can change over the next several months.
I just hope it actually comes to pass in one form or another. The world these days is a very unreliable place, filled with no shortage of unexpected entanglements...

If you think playing Bird Dream and the Happening was good well wait till you hear he played Calistan in London on Tuesday 
(from Reddit Planet of Sound)
https://www.reddit.com/r/thepixies/comments/1bj72s5/last_night_adam_buxton_brought_out_frank_black_to/
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last night Adam Buxton brought out Frank Black to play 'Hey' with Richard Ayoade.
Ol' Buckles played the London Palladium last night and in the second half did a bit on Pixies and their influence on him. After a bit of customary waffle, Ayoade started noodling Hey on his guitar. When Buxton asked him to sing it, he seemed shy and instead, from stage right, emerged Frank Black. They played Hey, with Ayoade doing the lead solo.
Then Buxton got Frank Black to play Calistan. And he finished with Where Is My Mind.
Great night. |

| Nice. Buxton is great. Looking forward to whenever he gets around to doing that podcast with BF which he has teased a few times at this stage (and it's long overdue since they're friends). Still find it amusing that Adam was milling around the area whenever Kim decided to abandon ship during the Indie Cindy recordings. |
