COOL news about the RnRHoF show!!! you guys n gals ROCK!!! one other thing--I already called and sang. you guys don't stand a chance. [;)] Pixies News Oh let it rock We've received the discs from the first half of The Pixies' tour and they start shipping, along with the tee shirts, today. They look great and sound even better. The sold-out San Francisco shows are blaring through The Show HQ on autorepeat right now. Everyone who ordered, no matter what or when, will also be receiving a special copy of The Pixies' special performance from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. We'll be posting pix of the discs on the weblog shortly. Our special box set, "The Best 5 Shows" has been selected, and only a few (16) copies remain. Find out more in the blog entry of 6/28, right below that, you'll also find a sample song, Alec Eiffel, from the late show in Portland on May 27th. Pixies Europe 05 Selected shows from the band's trip to Europe, that starts in August, are now available for purchase at Pixiesdiscs.com. And Another Thing If you missed out on our exclusive tee shirt offer, you can still get one here and if you're in Chicago for Lollapolooza this weekend, maybe you'd like to stop by and see us on Friday. The Contests Last Time In June's mail, we asked a trivia question and promised prizes to three random winners who could tell us the number of days between the first Pixies and first Dead Can Dance concerts of the 21st Century. Out of 400+ entries, a couple dozen had it right. Our random winners are Lisa Shabel, Enrique Garcia, and Rich Newmann. Each correctly figured out there were 331 days between April 13, 2005 and March 10, 2005. Copies of DCD's Selections From Europe and a Pixies Disc from the 2005 North American Tour are on their way to the winners. This Time Two winners will receive tickets to the Dunkin Donuts Newport Folk Festival on August 6th, the day The Pixies headline with an acoustic set, PLUS BACKSTAGE VIP PASSES! It's up to you to get there. The festival lineup is amazing and this promises to be one of the highlights of the year. Frank Black said, "I hope Pete Seeger doesn't go after the power supply with an axe, for us going acoustic." Here's what you have to do: Call this phone number, 703 637 9276, and give us your name and email address and then sing a few bars from a Pixies song. Then we'll pick out a few of the best ones and let everyone vote for the winners. But get busy, contest entries close next week. If you can't get to Rhode Island, sing for us anyhow. We'll give away six copies of the disc set from that date too. Thanks for paying attention, [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
