But hey! there's already this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJru1acwbbg

ScienceBlogs - Aardvarchaeology - Where The Action Is Rock Festival, Day 1.
And then the band I really came for: the Pixies, who released their last album in 1991. I love
them, I love Frank Black's solo work, never attended a gig before. I knew from live
recordings that the Pixies used to play their songs pretty much like on the records, and
they still do. When the time came for a cover even that was a tune they used to play back
in the day. It was an excellent Pixies gig, I certainly wasn't disappointed, but it seems a little
odd that someone as creative and productive as Frank Black wouldn't ask the band to learn
a new tune or two. |

| Sounds very tight... BF's guitar comes in like a tidal wave! Hope they'll do some more dates sooner or later, that more fans can get to... |

Hey! Great review. It's awesome that Mr. Black himself tossed out the invite to this forum. Wow. And that setlist! Yowza! Awesome. Maybe they'll pull out Bird Dream later on the tour and let Kim sing it. Allison? Boom Chicka Boom? Excellent.
Looks like a very fun show!

Please somebody upload some video of the band playing boom-chicka-boom!!! I feel as frustrated as when the Meat Puppets played the album II last year in the UK and there is no single footage of the performance! Just the typical "Nirvana" related songs! I'm really digging the bossanova tracks. Thanks for sharing!!!!!  |

| I only saw the I've Been Tired video now. My group of friends all love to sing along to it, definitely one of the Pixies most criminally underrated tracks! |

| Did the band play it completely or was it the one that they skipped and played rock music instead? |
