I'm happy this is happening for everyone! I had the good fortune to hear Superabound back with the Catholics, I'm sure this is going to be a lot of fun for all involved!

Agreed about the Pixie, songs; heck, I figure for Frank it's going to be fun to have a break from those.

Cheers

BF: Mag ik Engels spreken?



I went to a Stephen Malkmus solo concert a few years ago. The crowd was totally anemic (as always in Paris), and then for the last song of the encore he played Summer Babe and suddenly all those 45-years old bald guys started dancing and shouting the lyrics. I hated the whole evening.

Sounds awful, and I love Malkmus

I'd probably prefer the latter to keep it a bit more unpredictable. I also hope he mixes the setlist up from show to show just like the good old days.



No, beyond the press release confirming the album will be played "in full'. Plus by adding the fifth band member (Rob Laufer) on additional keys, bass and guitar, it looks like we'll be getting a more faithful replication of the album than those 94/95 dates.

Reid Paley opening for the Teenager of the Year shows.

Zzzzzz. Great. Saw him open for Frank at a solo show years ago. Really disliked it. Don't understand Frank's infatuation with this guy.

Ditto

I think I saw him open for FBF at LPR and everyone there was checking their watches

Solo acts I’d rather see open for Frank:

John Grant
Gene Ween
M Doughty
Kim Deal
David Lovering

Hey folks, it's been a minute.

Looking forward to seeing some of y'all at the Brooklyn show. I'd love to gather all the old heads together for a pre-show beverage if anyone is up for it.

Missed seeing this until now. Working to figure out where in the US would be best for me. Brooklyn sounds like it would be amazing but alas probably will have to look at maybe Chicago. Gotta pinch myself to believe it’s true. Missed original TOTY tour but the COR follow up tour was still incredible.



I'd rather be anywhere or doing anything

What a picture. I'm speechless - and it makes me happy beyond any imagination.

I joined the cult of Souled American / 'cause they are a damn' fine band

First setlist for those interested: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/frank-black/2025/the-fillmore-san-francisco-ca-1b54391c.html

Looks good - begins with a few from FB, goes through the entirety of TOTY, then does a short dip back into FB. No TOTY b-sides like I was predicting, but I'll be happy with full band FB numbers.

Does anyone need Chicago tickets? I have two tickets for both nights. Just hoping to sell them for what I paid for them.
