Black Francis/Frank Black question

I have an opportunity to see him in a few months, and I was wondering if he does any Pixies stuff in his solo shows?

I haven't seen him in a year or so, but last time I did he played about five or six Pixies songs. It was hard to be disappointed, since I've seen him performing Pixies songs way more frequently than his solo material. At any rate, it was a good show and he's on my list of people I'll go see any time they're within a reasonable distance from me.

He usually plays a handful of Pixies songs.

Is it an acoustic set? Last time I saw him do acoustic he only did a couple Pixies songs and when he fucks up a song he doesn't finish it, instead he moves on to the next song, happened probably three times at the last show I went to He was awesome BTW

The last time I saw Frank Black it was just him and a guitar and it was atleast 10+ years ago. From what I remember he did do a few Pixies songs. He was great, and I would totally recommend seeing him.
