Frank has a rude smile on his face, he knows there's something going on down there! Dave and Joey are trying to look casually dignified!

three new gigs they say, there are only two. When I listened earlier and they said "The pixies have anounced three new gigs" I checked the website and it's only two and the one we've all known about for ages.

also the usual "there will be an album" malarky

Stargreen says Pixies on sale this Saturday - no mention of where or when they're playing - but it must be the Manchester & Ally Pally gigs. I look forward to the same chaos and disappointment as last year....

What's wrong Kitty? If you want me to get you one/however many, just let me know. I will gladly get you one and you can pay me whenever (at the gig if you like).

Thats very sweet of you Mikey, I'm working on my dad at the moment in a sort of subtle

Pops, you know how I passed my exams and got really good marks and you said you were proud... how about letting that fatherly pride surface in a pixies ticket or two hmmmm

I thought it was kind of subtle.

Yep, Saturday 9am through the usual outlets.

Stargreen usually does the job, try seetickets.com, gigsandtours.com, ticketweb.co.uk...


How's that for a slice of fried gold?

www.seetickets.com aka www.wayahead.com will have them and in my experience have the most robust servers.

I got them online within a couple of minutes for the first Brixton gig.

I can't believe they are going on sale on Saturday morning. I am out tonight for a heavy one. I suppose I can go straight back to bed after. It won't take long.

"It won't take long."

You hope! It took me five hours to finally get some White Stripes tickets today. The Pixies tickets will be in BIG demand - expect a similarly frustrating experience tomorrow!

Pixies for sale
(Friday July 29, 2005 04:00 PM)

Tickets for the Pixies UK tour dates go on-sale tomorrow morning, as the band continue to debate plans for a new album.

The band are playing three shows in the UK as part of their European tour, plus two appearances at the Carling Weekend: Reading and Leeds.

Their European tour concludes at London's Alexandra Palace on August 31, when the reformed legends are expected to go into the studio to record their first new album in 14 years.

Speaking to MTV recently, frontman Frank Black commented: "We gotta do something else if we're going to go out there and continue to make money,"

"I mean, we could keep doing it the way we're doing it, but it might….at some point, we'll be overstaying our welcome, so to speak, as the reunited band.

Black concluded: "We have to either stop being reunited and go back to our lives or do something vital and relevant."

Pixies' European tour calls at:

August 2005

17 Paredes De Coura Festival
19 Hasselt Pukkelpop
20 Biddinghuizen Lowlands Festival
21 Erfurt Highfield Stadium
23 Dublin Lansdowne Road Stadium
25 Paris Rock En Seine
26 The Carling Weekend: Reading Festival
27 The Carling Weekend: Leeds Festival
28 Edinburgh Meadowbank Stadium
30 Manchester Apollo
31 London Alexandra Palace

Mine from Stargreen - it actually seems a lot easier this time than for Brixton.

I say this all very nonchalantly...

I'm going to see the Pixies!
