Guest whitemilesdavis Report post Posted December 3, 2004 I saw the Pixies about 10 years ago, and they truly sucked. I hope your experience is better, because I haven't been able to enjoy their music since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Myxamatosis 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2004 The cool thing about their concerts is the majority of them may be available for download, legally I might add. It's like for eleven dollars or something. Their Lincoln, Nebraska show was amazing. They flowed through their set with modified versions of their songs all the way through. I dug it.

5_moves_of_doom 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2004 Seen them three times. GREAT twice, just OK the other time. But yes, hopefully you get to witness an extended jam on "Gigantic" or "No. 13 Baby." Or any of the modified versions. By the way, if they DO decide to record a fifth album, it won't be up to par, but Frank said he was going to try and get Tom Waits to produce it. How intense is THAT.

C Dubya 04 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2004 Well, gotta say the concert was excellent. THey sounded great and played a good mix of songs from all the albums. Only one really weird choice. They played Wave early on, and then later played the slowed down version. this played a bit of a mind fuck with me, as I had been drinking for about 10 hours before this point.

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2004 The show was fantastic. They took the stage at 9:15 and played non-stop, no chit-chat, for 90 minutes and 28 songs. Absolutely great - the music hall was full of 35 year-olds who looked like they were happy for the first time in years. Prince in the spring, the Cure in the summer, and the Pixies in the dying days of autumn. Better have something good lined up for the winter. The setlist, which was pretty fine. 13/15 tracks from Doolittle.

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2004 By the way, "Debaser" was probably the hugest song of the night, and everything I could have hoped it would be. Joey Santiago killed the guitar part underneath the second verse, which is one of my top-10 moments in music, probably. I'm probably going to buy the live CD of the concert, even though it's $25.
