I read today in Prefix Magazine that Frank Black (Black Francis) recently played a show and one of the only two Pixies songs he played was "Break My Body," which I decided to sing when we were asked to cover it for the Pixies Tribute record entitled Dig for Fire.
Anyway, I am so excited that he chose my jam to play live! Ivan says he doesn't think The Pixies even played it during their reunion tour.
If you'll recall, I posted an open letter to Frank a few months ago inviting him to dinner. Have not heard back from him yet so here's another one...
Open Letter to Frank Black #2:
Frank,
What's up dawg?!
Congratulations on having a baby on the way! When are you guys due? I know you are excited!
I'm still serious about getting sushi together. I'll be in NYC at the end of November through December if you're in town by any chance. I'm starting to do stand-up again and I have a couple shows up there but I'll be free most of the time if you can hang!
Not much going on here in North Carolina... Ivan had knee surgery last week to have his ACL replaced so we're not touring right now. Working on new songs though.
Have you seen Boure Ultimatum? Everybody was talking about it but I couldn't go see it because I hadn't seen the first two yet. I finally did this week and they're pretty cool.
Okay, talk to you later.
Take care,
Kelly

Also, I just downloaded the album, and my girlfriend said "I like the Pixies when they're the Rosebuds."
yo kelly, have you sent this to him or are you just letting it all out?
I'm moving to Dublin for Spring semester, but are there going to be any more Raleigh shows before Jan?
Kelly, Please let me know when you will be in Charlotte. I am living the greatest life ever! I have found that age 32 is the new 18! Love you! Michelle
If you want to get a message to Frank, I highly recommend sending it to him at his site: blackfrancis.net. He's got some nice video blogs up now, and he has a forum where he openly asks for questions from fans and other interested parties. Then he answers a few of them in the video blogs.
Just click both of the Frank icons at the bottom right of the screen.
Anyway - hope you get through to him. Big fans of both you guys and Frank!
