I rang up Frank Black at work yesterday. I was completely starstruck. He came to the register and I couldn't stop looking up and staring at him and he finally asked me "Is everything OK?" And I ask "Is your name Frank?" And he replies "Yes" and I started to fanboy. He was very kind and humble. Such a surreal moment for me that I won't soon forget.

I have been watching this band perform this song for 30 years now and the last couple of years it has become an almost religious experience. It has transcended everything it has ever been before and ascended to a plane of pure sonic joy for me that nothing else has even come close to. I'd say that in its current incarnation, the live version has achieved perfection, but that doesn't do it justice. It's perfect, but it's perfect even for a Pixies song. There is simply nothing to compare to the experience of standing in the middle of a dance floor in a crowded auditorium, eyes closed, gently swaying to the calm-before-the-storm bass groove, knowing that with each controlled-chaos verse, hell is going to break a little more loose. By the time we get to "break the walls and kill us all", I am screaming the words back at Charles Thompson with the understanding that though he wrote them, I am feeling them, because that is his will. This song, and the way it is played today, stands as one of the greatest rock and roll achievements of my lifetime.
