Pixies fans ••• Frank Black talks reunion!
Edited on Fri Jul-11-03 11:22 AM by FlashHarry
Sort of.

</snip>
He told London radio station XFM: "I do dream about the Pixies reunion I do have to say.

"It's like those schoolboy dreams when you don't do your homework and you don't study for the test, but I'm at the gig and we're hanging out, but it's an utter failure and I don't know the songs, and hardly anyone turns up for the gig and people walk out. That's what I'm afraid of, that it'd be a big, big failure."

But he added: "We might. We do get together and have private jams together, but not for public consumption."

On edit: found better source than the NY Post.

6. Look at The Breeders
Their reunion has sucked royally.

I'm better off listening to their old recording of Cannonball

8. Breeders can't compare to the Pixies
which is why their reunion "sucked royally". I'm personally psyched about the Pixies reunion because I never got to see them live. They should have never broken up in the first place, even if Trompe Le Monde wasn't as solid as their earlier albums.

9. Trompe le Monde still has two of their best songs, though
"U-Mass" and "Planet of Sound"

I saw them twice on that tour and they were fanbloodytastic! I've seen Frank & the Catholics twice since then, and they were excellent, too. In the mean time, everyone should do themselves a favor and run out and buy Franks amazingly great CD Dog in the Sand.
