Hope this time its true as although it was great seeing them last year seeing them as headliners in a proper venue would be great (and the sound would be a million times better!)
Ha ha, my friend rang me after the Pheonix Park concert to tell me he heard that they were playing a secret gig in Whelans. I hightailed it down, but to no avail, the lady in the ticket both looked sick of people asking her about a Pixies secret gig.
'it seems,' I said, looking up at the sun, 'when a man dreams, a white butterfly does be after coming out of his mouth and walking away; and when it comes back again, it is then he awakes.' |

depends what you expect of a live band
I heard Green Day plays We are the Champions live
I guess I wouldn't spend 190 euro for that

Nice to see you back Mike! A brillant Pixies summer gig would be a great opportunity for meeting up with Bazza again and excessive pint drinking!

First of all, everyone should keep calling it Witness... Second of all, Kasabian are the most important band of 1997, and this is 2005. I read that somewhere and it struck me as one of the truest criticisms I'd ever seen.

Nah, the Weezer tour is'nt happening. It would be cool if Pixies were added to Oxegen, then again I'd like to seem 'em do there own show someplace. |

Was the band called Doolittle? They were playing the TMBC a few months ago as well, but I found out after the gigs. Finally saw them in the buttery and they were great. The lead singer even looked quite like a young Black Francis.
Kasabian's album being released this year was the point, it would've been possibly important but at least revelant 8 years ago, now it's just more music that sounds like everyone else.

I have to agree on the Kasabian thing, I haven't heard anything by them that doesn't want to make me throw things at the stereo
 cats have nine lives/ which makes them ideal for experimentation |

A fiend of mine has a band called The Blips;the Hothouse Flowers' drummer played with them (He is'nt really there regular drummer-I'm not sure, anyhoo). I like the Temple Bar, it has a decent stage back there. |
