when i lived in burlington, vt back in 2000, i worked as a dishwasher and prep cook in a restaurant downtown. the head chef was this girl, maura, who was probably about 34 years old or so. anyway, one day we were chopping up some potatoes or something, and start talking about bands. and so i tell her my favourite band is the pixies and she's like "oh yeah, they're great. i used to be roommates with their drummer back in college." so i'm like, no way!!! but she swore it was true, and said she would bring me a copy of a tape that dave gave her of some pixies outtakes. but she looked for it for a few days straight, and never could find it.
to this day, i wonder if it was something truly unique, or just a copy of the early pre/purple tape stuff. |

okay here's a little update. i've been trying to get in touch with maura through some old coworkers, and one of the other chefs told me that maura actually dated dave back in college. if/when i get in touch with maura again, i'll see if i can get her to email me any interesting stories (and of course, a copy of the tape if she's found it).

I've been trying to work out a rough time period but with no luck,anyone know how old Dave is and from what age you're in college?
My guesstimate is 86-87,before they started touring properly.

Well, if I'm right and Maura is about 36 now, she would have been in college from around 1986-1990. I don't know how old Dave is. Frank is 39, right?
I'm still trying to get in touch with her. |

Justahangwire, have you tried Lovering's website? Maybe he'll answer your inquiry about Maura.
