Pixies will kick off a world tour with Kim Shattuck
http://pixiesmusic.com/new/
PIXIES ANNOUNCE FIRST LEG OF WORLD TOUR
THE PIXIES ANNOUNCE LEG ONE OF EXTENSIVE WORLDWIDE TOUR
Band Will Debut Brand New Pixies Material
Armed with "Bagboy," the band's first new song in nine years, the Pixies will launch the first leg of what will be a massive global tour on Sunday, September 29 in Paris, France. This will kick off the first tour the Pixies have done in nearly two years, and will give them an opportunity to do something they haven't been able to do in two decades : premiere brand new Pixies songs, the first collection of new material since 1991's Trompe le Monde.
Log onto pixiesmusic.com/new for complete on-sale dates and ticket purchasing information.
For this tour, which will feature a brand new stage set and production, the Pixies - Black Francis - guitar/vocals, Joey Santiago - guitars/backing vocals, and David Lovering - drums/backing vocals - will be joined by bassist Kim Shattuck. Shattuck played bass for the all-girl L.A. garage rock band The Pandoras, and then was the guitarist for the pop punk band The Muffs. The four have been holed up in an L.A. rehearsal space getting ready to offer the most wide-ranging concert set-lists of Pixies music in the band's career.
"Along with everyone's favorites, we'll be playing songs that we haven't played in ages or never played live before," said Black Francis. "Songs like 'Brick is Red,' 'Havalina,' 'Tony's Theme.' and 'Sad Punk.' We've probably rehearsed some 80 songs, so we'll be able to change up the set at the last minute if we feel like it. We're all really looking forward to this tour."

that "oh my golly" on that bootleg's tracklist is a mistake. they played an instrumental version of "something against you" instead, if i remember it correctly.
 it's educational |
| benji |
Posted - 07/03/2013 : 21:39:50
indeed it is a demo.
the live set from the bootleg is a typical doolittle era gig. unfortunately no santo played.
edit: now my memory tells me it's actually just the b-side version. haven't compared, so memory could be failing with old age.
all i can say, thank god for polio! brian |

I would love to hear them do Velvety with Frank's lyrics from Devil's Workshop. I would also love to hear them do "The Cover of Rolling Stone" and "Been All Around the World" (but the fast, punky version BF did live).

Feb.5 1992 (Pixies Here We Come Bootleg).And Santo was played in Liverpool May 3 1989 (Give Me Ecstasy Bootleg).If someone has their bootlegs within reach please confirm. Info from the good old Alec Eiffel site where I collaborated in the Spanish and lyrics translation sections as some of you might remember.

would love to see 'trompe le monde' and 'motorway to roswell' return. such an underrated record, would be great to see some acknowledgement for it. edgar wright recently tweeted it was his fav (sort of unrelated but not really) |

There's something that seems weird to me about the tour schedule. Has anyone noticed they have over 20 days off between Oct 10 and Nov 1? Seems kind of strange. Is this done to leave space for more dates if the demand is there? Or, something else? Promote new music, maybe? Or just go home and see the family? |

On the '05 tour I remember the live "Alec Eiffel" coming off a bit flat while the live "Stormy Weather" was pretty epic. You never know what'll work live.
Be nice to see "I Can't Forget" performed on the new tour. No less than Leonard Cohen himself has given the Pixies' version a thumbs up...
"...as The Pixies’ Black Francis growls, “I’ve loved you all my life/That’s how I want to end it”. “Wow,” exhales Cohen. “Hear the conviction in that?”

Did they ever played Down to the well at a concert ? BBC session version was pretty enjoyable.
Hangwire. Did not hear that one live in a long time.
Let's hope plenty of new songs

Third for Space (I Believe) in! Alec Eiffel. The Happening. All Over The World. Letters to Memphis.
"About 80 songs, this is what the Pixies recorded between 1987 and 1991..."
Ah, but I'm sure they'll be playing a brand new selection of songs. There were what, twenty registered? |

oh yes!
However, they did play Sad Punk in 2005.
