A certain 'je ne sais quoi'..

Kay — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 23:09:14 -0700

I was just wondering if there was any particular reason why you have numerous French-inspired song titles throughout your albums, ex. Montaigne, Rousseau, Lyon, Versailles, etc. Is this just a coincidence? Is there 'rhyme to your reason'? Or am I simply looking too far into this?

Thanks, K

P.S. Can't wait to see you in Vancouver in February... and with MC Chris too!!! That show's gonna be rad! (I'm flying in from Ontario just to see you guys!)

Paris and London gigs

Hello,
I just wanted to say thank you to Pinback for the 2 gigs I've seen this week. The gig in Paris was absolutely amazing, the sound was perfect, Pinback as usual were spot on, they played over 2 hours, the set was just brilliant, in a nice intimate venue where everyone had a great time. The best moments: Bouquet, Good to sea, Boo, Walters and AFK...

Englewood, CO

Hey, there. We're big fans. And when I say big, I mean fat. Like too many donuts Orca big . We're also balding, but that's another story.

The reason we’re posting: we tossed a t-shirt towards the stage in Englewood, CO. Did you get it? It had a nice white arrow on it.

It would most certainly make us happy if you did. Please let us know. We have little else to live for.

Thanks.

Coming to Canada?

Was fortunate enough to see you guys play at Lee's Palace in Toronto Canada may '06 (May the 4th be with you).

My question is, any idea when you will be playing in Canada again? My girlfriend ( a new big fan ) are anticipating it and are going to make it our vacation. Can't wait, you guys were amazing.

All the best.

Danny

Lyric request for Zach

Grey Matter — Tue, 22 May 2007 17:45:05 -0600

I imagine that there is nothing more irritating than a fan requesting lyric clarification. And yet, as a die-hard Pinback fan, I have an insatiable curiosity about the lyrics to Todo. I tried my best to decipher them but I ended up with non-sequiturs (much more than the usual Pinback obscurity, mind you). I posted my best guess on Pinbackfreak's website and heated disagreements ensued. I just want to know how terribly far off I actually was.

I know lyric inquiries must be tedious, but I just couldn't help myself. Consider revealing the lyrics just this once....

Dear Zack,

I was just wondering, in anticipation mode,
when the new albums are to come out. I know
a deffinant answer may be hard to come by, so
is there any idea you could give us as to when?
please please please

Thanks Euskadi.

P.S.
I am hooked, it's the weirdest thing.
I got into pinback around 2000,
after that I have been hooked with everything
3mp, Pinback, Systems officer, and your
music isn't just about listening to music,
your music creates a sense nostalgia, and
puts inspiring images or feelings into my mind,
and especially when I'm in and around San Diego

synths / keyboards?

GradyD — Sat, 21 Apr 2007 18:21:42 -0600

hey zach,
what synths or keyboards do you guys use? like the ones you use for your live shows? (which are incredible)

also, do you think it's feasible to make your kind of music with just a keyboard and voice?

European Tour

cipher — Fri, 20 Apr 2007 05:01:58 -0600

Hi Zach,
Just a quick question, are you planning on coming to Europe after the CD comes out?
It's just to know if we should have high hopes or not... I know coming to Europe is really inconvenient I imagine, but if you do,be sure I'll go to as many gigs as I can in England and in France...
Can't wait for 'Autumn of the Seraphs'... This titles is beautiful by the way.
Take care
Kevin
