Yeah MTV said that the Pixies were rehearsing in Minneapolis now, which we sort of didn't believe. I wonder if this word on the street is to diffuse possible rumors of another "secret" show? I have to admit that I don't believe for a second that this will be the first show, but there is always that possibility! I really like the idea of getting hired as a janitor!
MattB --
Heard about the two day rehersal at The Fine Line from a very trustworthy sourse (right from the horse's mouth). When I found out that the show was at The Fine Line I was surprised that it wasn't at First Avenue. Every show The Pixies played in Mpls was at First Ave, save the time they opened for U2. I'm guessing the show was offered to First Ave. They would've had to cancel their Sunday and Monday night shows. Monday night is Trapt (top 40 nu metal band, it'll sell out). First Ave can't afford to have the club empty for two nights these days it seems.
I doubt that another show will be added, though. I think that the closest it will come to that will be a handfull of the super-scenesters might be able to get in for a private party to watch them play. Even that seems doubtful.
I've got my ear firmly to the ground on this thing. I'm not one of the music biz elite by any means, but I do book tours for a handful of bands and I live in Minneapolis. This whole thing is pretty incredible. I know a bunch of people that never pay for concert tickets in this town that aren't able to get in to this show with their scenster tricks. All rules are off for this one.

I need one ticket, I'll trade $$$ plus the fact that I'll record the concert and hook you up with a cdr or dat copy right after the concert the same evening. Please help me.

Where you at Jacka?
Sorry friends. I had a very busy weekend. I was at a fraternity reunion at my old alma matter (a bunch of Deltas have tickets). Couple that with countless hours of NCAA basketball watching, getting my Jaguar worked on, tanning, training and I just didn't have time to post. Here's the deal:
The Realist has two tickets that are unaccounted for.
The Realist might audition spots for said tickets on this very forum.
The Passion is lying about Paisley Park - David L. was spotted coming out of The Hanger (its an old airplane hanger converted into a recording studio) in Arden Hills.
The Realist feels that the cries for Mod help are simply Bush-loving, right-wing, neo-nazi extremists who believe free speech is dangerous.
Long live free speech. Long live the Breeders.

Bush Loving! Oh, what have we become?
I went to the Fine Line the other night to pickup tickets to another show(and to plead shamelessly) and someone told me The Pixies have about 200 people on their guest list alone. That's insane, although not suprising, I'm sure everyone they know wants to see them back in action. I wonder who some of The Pixies 200 closest friends are? Might be some interesting faces there.
They also reluctantly confirmed the rehersals for the two days prior. Anyone else want to patheticly stand outside with ears pressed against the window with me? Hell maybe one of those rehearsals is another "Secret Show" to replace the leaked one. Probably not but it's a nice thought. |

| Confirmation from Fine Line on the rehearsals, eh? That's actually some pretty big news. To me that casts doubt on there being any other full-fledged shows before Mpls, although smaller-scale affairs in California are still probably not out of the question. |

Policie Maison Doyon calls for a Reality check:
College educated, rich, tactless yet is not a Republican.
Moniker is definitely from WWE.
Stipulations of sale: he drive to your house to exchange tickets and receive payment in person, assuming the Jaguar does not break down again. |

| By the way, this little Realist Love Fest that's broken out on the board absolutely disgusts me after the way he treated all of you over the last couple of weeks. Have you no dignity, or will you grovel at the feet of every stroke that can get you in the door in Minny? I'll honestly tell you that I'm using the four extras I have (and the fifth I should be getting from the Realist) to get non-fans in the door to drink with me. And I want the Realist to know this. I'm not going to kiss her/his ass just to get my fifth in the door. |

| i never kissed his ass. i asked him for an extra ticket. I am surprised you have any friends by your blatent display of pretension and selfishness...much less four of them to go to a show with. I hope you lose all of your tickets to a prostitute (which i am sure you have to resort to) steals your wallet. |

Joshuagingery,
The Passion of El Diablo pretends not to like the Pixies, and pretends to make mistakes on basic Pixies knowledge (i.e., misspellings of Doolittle and Vamos, as seen earlier in this thread). He is actually going to enjoy himself while he's there, and he's actually going to make sure ardent Pixies fans attend with him. So don't worry about it. I'm sure he actually has a very vanilla personality offline, which lends himself to hanging around with many friends while not being the center of attention due to eccentric personality traits. So, go have fun at the concert like I know you will, The Passion of El Diablo.

| I think you may be right Calastanian...but it doesn't mean I have to either like him or respect him. Where i come from, bitches get stitches. It has taken time and maturity to not get into silly fights anymore. However, sometimes i relapse into verbal escapades and rants...especially when instigated by spoiled little girls like Passion who think of nobody but themselves. |

Nice work Calistinian. Passion, you should really stop these feeble attempts at making us not not question whether you aren't or aren't not a true Pixies fan. Your cover's blown. I'm still down for one of your extras right? You gotta get me in, the Fine Line has two-for-ones until 9:30 on Tuesdays. If the Pixies don't play too long, we'll probably have time to stop at Drink for one on our way over to Danceteria too. |

Passion.
Apparently, you are struggling with the fact that there is someone a little more charismatic on this board than yourself. Get over it. I have extra tickets and hence, I have interest in my posts. Throw your darts in vain but this here board is simply for ticket swapping. However, the fact that you would like a ticket for your moms is touching. In you can prove, using analog evidence, that she is under thirty and a MILF, we just might have a deal.

| I would love to find an arrangement in which we could "swap". My mom is in her 60's and by no means a MILF so...that is most likely not an option either one of us would want to persue. The short and narrow is you have extra tickets and I want one of them. Thousands of others want them as well. What do I have to do to get one? |

Roomloo -
What's the protocol for this whole ticket list, ticket give thing? This Josh kid wants one of my tickets. Am I bound to some freaky Pixies-ticket-priorty-code thing-deal? Or am I free to make up my own ridiculous set of impossible hoops one must jump through?
Not to blow his horn or anything, but this is the kid that pulled the "bitches get stitches" line which, while very small town tough, is sort of cute in an over the top male chauvinist sort of way. Besides, with great lines of the sort I'm sure he's able to handle himself in the pit and that's all were really looking for here. God save him if he runs into the Deltas.
Thanks.

Havalina --
I am 99% sure I have tickets to this show, which means unless the tickets get lost in the mail and my friend does not receive them, I'm good. That having been said, maybe you should email me anyway...

All,
These first two shows are obviously going to suck. The rehearsals have been good, but there's nothing like the actual thing after twelve years on hiatus . . . especially at the appropriately named Fine Line. [It's a fine line between bad sound and bad playing.] Notwithstanding that the band will disappoint all of us in a major way, I am equally concerned about all of you disappointing all of me by doing childish things like singing along and cheering through codas. Let's all do our part to let Blackie and Kim-Jung do the vocals and half-ass the waning moments of their lovely ditties. I didn't spend the effort on getting comped just to go in and hear Jicky Jack belt out "The Happening" in her playground voice. Thanks for your cooperation. |

Does that mean: "What's my deal?"
If so, I have no malicious intent. It's just that your online personality makes you so easy to tease. But this wouldn't be the FB.net forum if we didn't run the gamut in personalities, would it?

Roomloser,
I relied on El Real's earlier post addressing you on this ish . . . that shows you where you get when you rely on her/his research.
Low-gain ZZZ,
I'm down one, big-time.
Can'tUnderstand Way,
"ish, brah" = "issue, brother" [And it isn't lost on me how lame it is that I just formulated this fun little equation.] |

The Pissing of El Diablo,
First of all, I see that I have you scared of me, since you edited your mistake of "Understand".
Second, thanks for the street-wise vocabulary for "issue". I will never have to question that again.
Thirdly, we know you're actually a die-hard Pixies fan.
Fourthly, I know you'll be singing along too, as you're wiping away the tears of joy that will result from your emotional euphoria of witnessing your fav band of all time. As a sidepoint, "fav" = "favorite". That's a little street talk of my own.
Rock on!

What you did was incredibly irresponsible and reckless. You can't just pull names out of a hat because when you do things like porkbone winning happen. Obviously, he doesn't deserve a ticket. He had backup plans all alonge and wanted to scalp the one he clipped from here. Loganz (thanks Cali) you have to develop some sort of merit system or something to award these tickets because this is the cluster fuck of the century.
