7/8/2014 - SOME THINGS TO TAKE NOTE OF
hell-oh friends,
lot’s to address today, so pardon me but i’m just going to get to it…
first off, many many thanks to all of you that stayed up and tuned into the BBC 1 rock show last night/early this morning to hear the global premiere of weighted. you all must be exhausted. i would also like to thank Daniel P. Carter for playing my song and for being an all around super rad guy all these years. (if you didn’t already know this, he’s also a fantastic musician. check out Krokodil. shit’s brutal.) if you liked what you heard and were thinking ‘radio is just not enough damnit! i need to own a copy of that song right now!!’ well then you are in luck and can head on over to iTunes and when you preorder the record you will instantly receive your digital copy of weighted. but maybe some of you are thinking ‘radio is just not enough damnit! and the single and the preorder of the digital version of stomachaches are just not enough either!! i need a t-shirt as well as some vinyl, and/or a cd, and a giclée fine art print of an original painting signed and numbered by frank that’s limited to 250 copies in addition to the instant download of weighted!!!’ well then you too are in luck!! head over to the new store and you can pick up all of that exactly in whichever bundle you can think of!! hmm, but possibly you might be thinking ‘Hey but i live in the UK, don’t you have an exclusive UK shirt design or album bundle pack for me?!?’ well guess what? yes! you too are in luck. head on over to our UK store and you will find exactly what you are looking for!
ah, but then there still might be some of you that say ‘ok, very nice, but i in fact missed the BBC 1 global premiere, and i am completely devastated. isn’t there somewhere i could listen to the song while i order all these fine products?’ oh yes, you my friend are also in luck. the fine folks at B.CALM press and Staple Records have thought of just that. just head on over to our official youtube page and you can listen to weighted til your heart’s content.
but but wait there’s more! wanna come cellabrate the release of stomachaches with us? (you: yes!) ok good, because we are pleased to announce that the fine folks at Vintage Vinyl in Fords New Jersey were nice enough to invite us to their store to play you a few songs and sign some records on our release day, August 25th, 2014. (this is one of my favorite record stores in the world by the way.) more details to follow!
oh what’s that you muttered under your breath? you don’t live in NJ…you live in Baltimore, MD? well, guess what friend?! we will be playing our very own show at theMetro Gallery in Baltimore Maryland on Thursday October 9th, 2014.
see something for everyone! ok, but that will have to be all for right now because it’s my beautiful wife’s birfday today and i’m going to take her to breakfast. stay tuned for more news and shows soon. have a good tuesday. xofrnk
p.s. if you haven’t listened to the new music my friend geoff rickly has been working on you really must do yourself a favor and check it out. wow! No Devotion and the newUnited Nations. too darn good.
