His solo stuff is much more diverse than the Pixies songs, and even they are far from being always the same tune.
He did Pixies-like albums, punk albums, and even country albums.
Up to his last tour he didn’t play any Pixies songs. I remember a guy asking for Debaser at a show in Essen (Germany). Frank replied: “Only when I need money!”
This might explain why he played Where Is My Mind and some other old favourites on his last tour.
Anyway, if it’s the money, the David Bowie might have helped him out by covering Cactus on his Heathen album.

He had them opening for some of his summer shows of the 1990 Sound and Vision Tour.
And in 1991, when touring with Tin Machine, he played the Trompe Le Monde album before his shows.

Great to have the old man extensively touring Europe again.
And what’s even better, support act will be Serafin, to me the best British rock band at the moment (forget The Darkness, there’s a light that never goes out)

Heathen is great especially Slow Burn (totally vintage Bowie) and the new record Reality should be great as well.
Best Frank Black songs are Beach Boys cover Hang On To Your Ego ad Headache.

Don’t forget Men In Black. They should have used that for the movie. :)
By the way, after listening to it once, I think Reality is not as good as Heathen. It’s a good album but the songs sound like Heathen outtakes to me.

Yeah, the whole “Cult of Ray”-Album is grrrreat!
“You ain´t me” , “I don´t want to hurt you” and “Men in Black” are fantastic songs!
