I gotta chime in for Doolittle. Frank still hasn't lost his touch.

LoudQuietLoud is a great flick. A must-watch for Pixies fanatics.

I was listening to KCRW's Eclectic webstream today, and they played Breeders 'Cannonball'- I forgot how much that song rips. Breeders/Kim Deal weren't as edgy as Pixies, but had a great, melodic, power-alt-pop sound about them, all the same.

Since my name is "Black" I can totally relate to senior Francis Black ... but then again what really sparked me about the Pixies was the parallel convergence of Grunge with Boston Rock Pixies ... Number 13 Baby!

Owned Surfer Rosa on cassette which got lost along the road of life. But a few weeks ago heard Bone Machine at the gym and fell in love all over again. Love the Pixies!

In honour of this thread I'm listening to the Pixies all day.

Saw them in Vancouver during the big reunion tour; wasn't the greatest show ever. They played well but there wasn't exactly a lot to look at or even much beyond what is heard on the albums. I like Frank Black and the Catholics' live show more these days.

My best gal just got home from their show the other night
@ the Orpheum in Van.
Guess their off to Vic.

She said it was a really really great show! And FUN!!

I guess they played "Doolittle" in it's entirety.

Cool!

I've listened through the new single, "Bagboy" a few times now. I think it's a worthy Pixies song, somewhere along the lines of Subbacultcha.

Way less awkward than listening to their other post-reunion song, which seemed like a crooked Breeders' tune.

Still, hearing Kim's voice again now is a sad reminder that she has left the group.
