frank's world

.......you know it is ...... it really is........ and i think all my ace fans who came on yesterdays magical timperley tours open top busw trip, and saw my concert in the evening will tell you that too......
so a great big 'thank you' to you all, it was of the most fantastic days ever in showbiz, and if you didn't make it, then mr sullivan did a propper film of it all (so propper that he wouldn't trust me to drop the film off at the chemist tommorrow for him !)
so i'll be putting loads of photos soon on the site, and check on youtube for your films of the ace days events, and a big thank you to mr alston and mr lovelady for organising the bus, and also dave and dave who drove it and navigated round my fantastic home town,...... the only low point was when my hat got knocked off when i forgot to duck the low hanging tree on park road,..... very funny, i think not. !!! royton and southport next ...update to follow.......... and again ..... thank you,. you are fantastic ! ....... frank

yes fantastic fans,........ i've just come back from manchester where i've been putting up a display of sets and props in 'bambers art space' which will run for a few weeks, i've got some more to add as the week goes buy, and hope to have a telly screen in the window with bits of the animation showing on it.
iwas on m channel the other night with a bit about the mosaic going up which was ace evidently ( i did not see it as i was doing 'letsgo global' live...which you can still watch on their archive on .. www.letsgoglobal.tv )
so it's back to show biz concerts this week, plus the first ever open top bus "magical timperley tour" which if you cant make i'll get some photos and video on the site. (or try www.youtube.com and type my name in ). have you had a look at advertising yet ????????? read on.......

...yes fans i've started an advertising section on not showbiz, ..also a timperley section........ and a ring tones section too,....... and instead of costing millions of pounds like all the others (what a rip off), mine are only 11 p for spoken word, or 37 p for musical ones. there's a few on allready, and i'm going to record some more for mr sanders (russ the web) to put on coz i dont know how you do that and roger is out. there will also be a super 8mm home movie section soon for both showbiz (with concert footage like me at wembley stadium supporting bros) and not showbiz (little franks holiday movies).
i've been writing a load of poetry recently too, so i may start a poem section, and also there will be lots of new tunes bot on this site and my myspace site to (if i can remember my password).
well thats about all the news today , so see you at royton and southport this week, and i'll tell you in the next few days about a thing i've just filmed for channel 4,,, and about the release of the dvd, and the release of my new lp ( called cd's now) and a film i'm in which you can see on a big screen in a museum in manchester in september, and my plans for my us tour, oh yes and my new band (s), and the next 13 episodes of my annimated telly thing, and my football team and some other things aswell which are too many to mention, and would make all other artists like paul mcartney jelous,.. you know they would .they really would....... thank you........... frank sidebottom .
