" I probably discovered post-punk bands like Husker Du and later got around to listening to punk. But as Iggy Pop once said, it's all disco. It's all animal, all beating on drums, it's all getting up there and making a racket in front of a bunch of people. It's all beat." (Frank Black - The Washington Post.)

Happy one-week BDay FB.net! |

Hey everyone, it's been a week! In that time
we've put together a team to work on the website,
put the message board up, and had almost 100
people sign up, include Frank himself, and
Scott the drummer. (As well as a few other
rock celebs!)

Gone Live |
|
Woo! We thought this moment would never happen!
Thanks to the leak on the Forum,
we figured we should get the site ship-shape
and get as much as we can online. That means
not much! There's a few tabs ready to go,
and the outlines for most of the sections,
we're welcome to contributions
and suggestions! We hope you enjoy!

New Tabs |
|
Derek has been sending them over, and i've
been making them available
to the masses - now Teenager of the Year
is fully tabbed and online, along with the
first Self Titled album and Dog in the Sand.
I believe Devil's Workshop will be the next
luck album!
There's also a new write-up
in the Web Team Bio section.

Dustballs!! |

Is anyone actually paying attention to these
news updates? Can my semi-secretive headlines
actually get peoples' attention? Is the bread
ever kept in the breadbox??
Yes, so thanks to the spectacular Zan (where's
your bio?? Don't make me make up shit for
you!) we've got bio's on all
the Catholics (except FB - go figure!)
Lotsa great info there, go read!

Two updates to the site today:
One is that we now
have a bio on our FB Bio Collections
Officer Zan!
The other is that we have made our FTP site
public, and the first file on it is a new
song from Frank called 'Manitoba', recorded
from the CBC show '>play'. Check the Forum
for more details. I'll set up a page for this
some time in the future.
I guess if i do a few more updates i can
justify the News Archive - yip! This is really
starting to feel like a website!
Hope everyone had a great Hallow'een! Anyone
dress up as FB or a Catholic? haha..

Zan the Bio
Elf (formerly known as the Bio Collector)
has updated Frank's
FB.Net Bio.
Also, people should be careful of what they
say..i happened across this
page while looking on Google to see how
many sites mention this one. Pretty funny.
=P
(TIP: Search for 'Dave'.)

News For Once! |
|
Yes. It's been a while. Frank has been busy
touring all over the US, lot's of great reviews
and photos in the Forum.
It's been hella-busy as well! Over 350 members
now, and over 6000 messages posted, who'd've
thunk??
On the site, we have photos for Zan and myself
in the Web Team section.
Also, tab for Black Letter Days and Pistolero
are in the Tab section.
A Photo Album will appear when i feel the
motivation to create such a section. =)

Still Not Dead! |
|
Welcome to the newsless news page! Home of
the news that's not really happening.
Frank's done touring for a while, and the
rumor mill is busy, churning out false-hopes
of when and where he'll be next.
A few updates to the site:
* tab page updated with
COR and FB&TC albums (thanks again to
Derek!)
* Joey
Santiago has been added to the Bio
section, and Rich, Dave P and Frank's pages
has been updated (Zan's
doing a great job with these!)
* Bio pages have been added for Derek
and Gavin
(more creds to Zan!)
And i think that's about it for now..back
to our regular casting of the Cone of Silence.
Oh yeah, photo album..still working on that..
