From today's issue of Rave Magazine (Brisbane street press)...
First things first. The Pixies will tour Australia early next year – you read it here exclusively. Lead singer, Frank Black or his Pixies persona, Black Francis, wants to get the message across. The only question is when. Frank says the band has been approached to play the Big Day Out circuit, however he has resisted that idea. “It’s not that I’m against Big Day Out,” the bald-headed 40-year-old says, “but as The Pixies have never played Australia I thought it would be cooler to do our own tour and not play in a great big field but in a room or a club or something where we are in people’s faces. You know, ‘This is The Pixies and we are here at last’. It isn’t always about the money for me or for The Pixies. We do have an aesthetic… “Anyway we’ve left in the hands our agent. So Big Day Out or on our own tour, The Pixies will be in Australia early next year and you are the first person I’ve told, so tell everybody down there.”
