Dreaming and starting false rumors are different! I feel bad for anyone that bought tickets for this show expecting to see the pixies!
In my short time as a member on this board, I have done one thing try to get real fans tickets! the day tickets went on sale I stressed to everyone buy them that day whether you had to go to a scalper or not. I said prices will hit the roof. People started rumors about bigger venues extra shows I clearly stated those RUMORS are false buy you tickets now. I started a post on saskatoon tickets so people would buy tickets for that show so they wouldn't be left out in the cold. Then someone starts a post about the breeders show's being pixie shows. I quickly doused that thread with flames. Now the tour is completly sold out!

Yeah, I'm sorry Kimmyd. If I had to do it all over again I would have made one post merely to tell Frankblacktaper to play a little nicer and kind of settle down the reaching conclusions people were making, but yesterday was just a weird day for me and I guess I might have gotten out of hand.
Peace now... |

speculation about secret Pixies gig or not, a Breeders show at Spaceland is going to sell out fast regardless. as will all their shows. i think ticket sales at these concerts have more to do with the fact that the shows are going to fucking rule, than people starting rumors on internet boards.
seeing the Breeders at Spaceland will be a special treat.. you don't think there are many Breeders fans in LA? please..
the fact that it's going to be a secret Pixies show, and officially the first time the Pixies play live together since the break-up (sorry Winnepeg), is going to make it that much more of a special Breeders show.. :) |

I'm with you floop!!
I'm stoked to see the breeders at Spaceland! That show in itself will well be worth the $25.
But, what I'm really looking forward to is the "opening band"
(Earth to everyone in denial...Richard Presley's post is just a red herring!)
You've been warned, and I'll be the first one to post here Monday morning with all the details of black's, joey's, david's, and kim's performance |

I don't know, this now looks like it's a pretty set-in-stone, official Breeders show/tour and nothing more. I'm not expecting more at this point, but I'm thrilled that I now get to see two Breeders shows, which I would assume will feature new stuff. This rocks!

So I got some Troubador tix today... I have no idea whether the Pixies will actually be playing these dates or not. My feeling is that if the 21st ends up being a Pixies gig and the other 3 shows are just the Breeders, then said Breeders will be met with a torrent of animosity from fans revved up with anticipation from the first Pixies gig. What's the basic consensus on this one? I notice some of the rumor buzz has died down and the 1500 buy it now has gone down to 500 on Ebay. I just think it would be awesome for them to turn all four of those shows into a pre-warm-up tour. I would be forever in their debt.
The plot thickens... |

Just go expecting it to be the Breeders and you'll have a good time. The Troub is a good place to see bands...

the Troubadour is one of my favorite venues.. and the only worthwhile venue on the west side. BLT, you must have been standing right behind me at that gig (pictured above) unless you're using a zoom |

That girl was my daughter, you son of a bitch.
But seriously... I recall you mentioning all this in a previous thread, shortly after that show. I can't say I remember her. |

...not all of you on this board are completely wrong... ...hence: All may be somewhat wrong. ...ergo: Some may be completely wrong. ...to wit: Some may be partially correct (but not necessarily). |

it does sound like a riddle doesn't it?
not all may be completely wrong. not all may be completely wrong. who are the "all".. and what is "wrong"? and if some are wrong, who is right and what are they right about? if only partially? |

To maximize uncertainty, some shows maybe Breeders shows, some shows may be special guest shows, and some shows maybe full Pixies reunions. That way even if the Spaceland show is "just" a Breeders show, hope still lives that other shows will be more. Ah hell, I just want to keep my dream alive for the Fairfax show. |

Dave and Joey were at both Breeders shows i saw in LA (one back in the day, and one last year)... so at the very least, i'm sure those local hombres will be there to show support. whether anyone gets on stage, or any other very very special guests show up and/or play is another story..
maybe at the very least Kim will do Into The White? |

or: to fantasize wildly.. maybe David Bowie (who's as big a fan as any of us) will show up with Frankie and then Joey and Dave will jump on stage and they'll all do Debaser. and then buy a round for the entire club.
any other fantasies? |

Just like Andy Kaufman bought cookies and milk for everyone at Carnegie Hall. |

i don't want to start further speculation, but i heard from a reliable source that The Incredible Hulk may or may not show up..
he's a big Pixies fan. and since he lives in LA it's entirely plausilbe

Hulk (aka Dr. Banner) plays tuba so maybe he'll sit in on the encore.
Larry Fine is buried at nearby Forest Lawn Glendale, so maybe he'll make an appearance.

sorry to be the party pooper, but seriously,
if "only" joey santiago gets up on stage to rock out on a sick version of "Gigantic", that will officially make Spaceland (or any of the other "breeders" gigs) the BEST breeders show...EVER!

My official prognostication is that the Breeders will play... will rock... and then...
Pixies 4 song encore.
Yeah? |
