A Telegram from Frank: Column in Gothic Magazine

A Telegram from Frank: Column in Gothic Magazine
There will be a regular column in Gothic Magazine written by one Frank Vollmann (Telegram Frank/Frank the Baptist/Dirty Weather Project) starting with this Autumn issue (# 69) which hit the streets yesterday.
There is a very welcoming introduction in the editorial section done by one Mr. Thomas Thyssen (Thanks Tommy T!).
Do yourself a favor and get your ass out there to pick up a copy (steal it if you have to) to supplement yourself with words of wisdom (yeah right) or enlighten your life with nonsensical banter (If you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance baffle 'em with bullshit).
Cheers!

Vienna Weekend

The Vienna show at The Viper Room was a Blast to play and we met and had fun with some very cool people.
We got to see some of Vienna and that was good as well... except for the fact that everything closes too early and the folks at our Pension wouldn't allow us to bring in guests. :) Vienna is a beautiful city, love the architecture.
Thanks Werner, thanks Vienna Folks

If anyone has photos or video of the show please send either a link or some files our way.

"Scars Forever" Saloon Version

A Saloon version of Frank the Baptist's "Scars Forever" that was recorded in The Speakeasy Berlin by Ragnar will be on the second volume of Thomas Thyssen's "Darkness Before Dawn"- sampler series and will be out just in time for this year's WGT and officially in stores two weeks afterwards (ca. mid-June). We let this one breathe a bit and I'm glad. The Restless Saloon Spectres of the Speakeasy whirl about on Piano, Guitar, Bass, drums, and vocals for the delight of poker table and the whiskey stained camptown girls... you were there, you know.

The Armada is growing

I would like to welcome Transworld Management (http://www.transworld-management.com) to the Armada. Upon entering the Frank Vollmann camp these fellas got us (Telegram Frank and Frank the Baptist) on the roster of Protain Booking (http://www.protain.de), that boast of acts the likes of KMFDM, Front 242, Eisbrecher, Project Pitchfork, etc. Welcome aboard fellas, Anchors Aweigh...
