Deal is okay, but Pixies lack that punch that other all-male bands possess. Look at Nirvana!

I think it would be best if they let Deal go and pick up a good, strong male bassist like Flea from Red Hot Chile Peppers or the bass player from Primus.

Let Deal join the Go Go's or Bangles.

The serious replies to such a humorous thread were disappointingly funny.

I have a funny feeling he may have been trying to wind everyone up.

If not he'll be dead within the week.

The Pixies have a stand-in bass player called Hemaphroditos! No, they don't. Honestly.
offerw Posted - 04/16/2005 : 03:16:39
I remember that Michael Anthony guy. He was hanging from a chain alongside a guy with tights screaming Pannama, Pannama, yet he could still play his bass. Impressive.

A transexual bassist would solve the problem. Hands and wrists manly enough to grip that bass like Bitch Cakes would want it to be gripped with breasts and a smile to keep the indie boys happy.

I think the Pixies would be better with a female lead vocalist.

the New Vocalist for the Pixies! This guy is way better than Black!

If Animal is replacing David, maybe Janis could replace Kim.

James Best aka Roscoe P. Coltrane and Andy Griffith!

Can James Best play guitar? I looked for trivia, I found trivia, "Cousin of singers Don Everly and Phil Everly."

No, I really meant G'n'R
Daisy Girl Posted - 04/15/2005 : 14:15:14
I really don't see what gender has to with being a bassist or any other job. If you could explain why having a vagina and breasts makes one an inferior bass player, I am curious of what you have to say about this gender bias.

Hands down she is the best bassisit can think of. Can you personally name a better one??

And plus I agree with everyone that Kim's voice is also super cool... the Pixies woudn't be the same with out her.
Sir Rockabye Posted - 04/15/2005 : 14:04:30
I don't think anyone could do what Kim does. To me, she is one of the few that can pull of the simple yet intelligent basslines while providing some of the most endearing and chilling backig vocals I've ever heard. Like K said, without her, they aren't the Pixies.


Some brains just work that way, that's what chemicals can do.

So, Bitch Cakes (if that IS your real name), do you honestly think men are better bass players than women? Isn't that a rather misogynistic attitude?

Not only am I quite fond of Ms. Deal's vocals, but I think it's kind of cool that the Pixies are a co-educational band.

ccuadros Posted - 04/15/2005 : 11:50:43
Sorry, I'm note agree....I'm a bass player and I don't think that the gender make a better or a worst bassist. I love the style of Kim.

(Sorry ElyLady, close your eyes)

True krist is all male but his playing with a 'punch' ?
I just don't, sorry, didn't hear that
Just easy bass lines played well
n/a Posted - 04/15/2005 : 10:53:58
Did Bitch Cakes said something about the RHCP???

Just let Deal alone, unless you are joking, you MUST be!


I feel like a completely different person
BLT Posted - 04/15/2005 : 10:42:33
Michael Anthony has forgotten more about successful bass playing than Krist Novaselic will ever know.
Carl Posted - 04/15/2005 : 10:39:14
I've changed my mind, they'd be better with Krist Novaselic!

Yeah, Pixies should be more like Nirvana. The only reason we like Pixies is because they sound like Nirvana. Nirvana. Nirvana Nirvana Nirvana Nirvaaaaannnnaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!! Yeah!
kathryn Posted - 04/15/2005 : 10:33:58
Not to sound disrespectful but are you joking, Bitch Cakes?
The Pixies are the Pixies in part because of Ms. Deal.
Lay off my girl! She's the perfect and only bassist for the Pixies.


I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics
BLT Posted - 04/15/2005 : 10:31:37
More benefits to Michael Anthony:
1. Steadiest quarter notes in the biz
2. Ample experience with multi-million dollar music tours
3. Has more hair than Kim Deal
4. Aggressive yet endearing smile
5. Other Pixies needn't worry about him submitting his own songs (he doesn't write any)
n/a Posted - 04/15/2005 : 10:12:58
I don't have the 'valley-girl accent', but I must say with my own accent, KIM IS PERFECT WITH THE BASS.
I justcan't imagine the Pixies without her.

yeah, Catholics is what you're looking for my friend
BLT Posted - 04/15/2005 : 09:46:18
If you're looking for a male who can pluck those quarter-notes on the bass like Kim does, may I suggest Michael Anthony? He is apparently unemployed at the moment and could use the exercise.
