The show was great.
My favorite shot.
And below is my album of 85 pics. If you have a decent computer, "show all" makes things easier. If you click an image, you can get to the full-size version, which is quite big.

So, of course the show was wonderful. When I got there, I smiled to see that the club had put up a schedule for the evening, with the Pixies on at 9:15- the first proof that this was really happening! But it really hit me as they took the stage. It was very surreal. Charles made some comments about having no set-list, and then a moment later David kicked off Bone Machine. Everyone recognized the song right away, and started cheering and hopping around.
Lots of smiles by all the Pixies. They had to constantly communicate with nods, shouts, and whispers in the ear to coordinate each new song. Kim has a great technique of holding her cigarette while she plays, and deftly moving it to her mouth between beats. The drumstick toss was great fun. After the closing of Where is My Mind?, they all came to the front of the stage, with big smiles. Kim seemed to be impressed and appreciative of the fans, but Charles' grin was kinda creepy, like he had something on his mind. Anyone else get that vibe?
I'm bummed the didn't play Veloria, although in general I'm disappointed they've been playing so few songs from the last two albums. I'm hoping they'll get to it in the future! I'm just so happy that I could see the Pixies, in a small venue, at what felt like an "important" show.

Didn't realize you had to log in... But once you did, you could see the pics, right? And here's a link to my favorite, since it doesn't look like I can use the Imagestation image in the thread itself:

Yeah, Imagestation isn't the greatest, but it is free. If anyone has ~40 megs of server space that I can FTP to, I'd be glad to put them up there, in an album.
