Salon Pixies Interview with Charles Thompson/Frank BlackSalon talks to Black Francis: "I want to be Lou Reed and I want the writer to be Lester Bangs. Know what I mean? I want him to be so into it that he's arguing with me about the validity of a song I wrote. I don't care if it's insulting." Advertisement

FROM THE DESK OF RRNT
What does a band do? They go out on tour and then if they feel they have to make it or continue to make their mark, they go and write music and record it. We're not really in that mode, because right now we're just playing the old songs and getting paid lots of money for it. That's all anyone is asking for, so that's all we're motivated to do. People haven't come to us and said, "Warner Bros. really wants to know if you were to make your grand LP statement right now, what it would be? Just please do some kind of contract with us." Where are those guys? They're not interested. Business is business, and I understand how business works. Fine. But, I don't know, if I ran a record company I'd be a little more curious about it. Actually, there's been one label, one guy who has been very motivated to get us to record. But yeah, generally they're not asking and, to be honest, neither is the audience. I don't know how they would ask, but that's not really what this is all about. This is all just about, "You guys broke up too soon and I was in high school. So please tour again."
Here's a guy that's honest!
