I vote Gigantic. It is the most kimmie song but very pixies. Bridges their two lives nicely
It will definately be one with both of them vocal. And I bet the song line up will be heavy on their more duet-y pieces. And I am all for it!
What do I win?

Okay so I updated the first post of this thread to reflect the ever-changing first show of the tour. Well, it's not ever-changing yet, but I expect it to be. I wonder, will the Minneapolis show (and possible other secret shows--yes, including the one they are playing in my garage on the 12th) have a different vibe from the warm-up tour shows?

When I envision these shows in my head, a "secret" show in Boston or the Fine Line show in Minneapolis has a totally different feel from the official kick-off date in Winnipeg... It will be interesting to see the set lists from these shows as they happen... hopefully someone has the patience to write this stuff down because I probably won't!

What if their first song is a new Pixies song that nobody's heard? I think that sounds like something they would throw at the crowd. Keep us from instantly cheering. Everybody would have to think for a second and say "I don't know this song." Then we would all think "is this a cover song that I don't know?" "Is this one of the songs they recorded for Trompe Le Monde that was never released?" "Is this a newly written song?" All these thoughts running through everybody's heads and the Pixies are on stage just milking it for all it's worth. Then Frank may say something like he did at Brixton, like "and now continuing on with the songs you don't know." Then burst into Debaser. I think that could top their alphabetical set list.

I think good old predictable bone machine would be nice to open with. Although Cactus would be cool. I nearly cried when Frank Black and the Catholics opened with Cactus... I think it should be something quite fast...... ROCK MUSIC ROCK MUSIC WOULD BE GOOD. I'm actually having a whole conversation with myself, aren't I?

I think the ultimate song would have to be Manta Ray.

Frank Black is not psychic when he takes one look at a human.
Frank Black is god.
Frank Black is one of the saints of rock and roll.

Every time I imagine it, I picture them opening their first show with "Debaser". The first few notes of that song are so stirring, and it was the opener on the record that has made them legendary.

It would just be funny to start with Broken Face... they probably won't plau Navajo at all, but that would make me happy :)

I can't believe nobody's said Monkey Gone to Heaven.
I can hear it now...the first five beats with the lights off, and then they blast on with every instrument raging at once.
It's been a while, but I'm back with my bells on,

Re: Gigantic...

When the Breeders played this with Joey a few weeks back, it seemed pretty off-the-cuff, and while he played great, Joey didn't seem that sure of the arrangement, and a couple times seemed to be looking over to Kim for guidance. The impression that I got at the time was that the Pixies probably have not rehearsed this song for the set. Things could have changed, though...

I didn't expect Bone Machine. I thought they'd go for the usual overcome-the-nerves opener, Rock Music.
However, since when did the Pixies do anything the way anyone expected?
