PIXIES JOIN LOLLAPALOOZA BILL
PIXIES will join the LOLLAPALOOZA bill this summer.
Guitarist Joey Santiago made the announcement for the band during a backstage press conference at the Coachella festival over the weekend.
"We're going to be playing Lollapallooza at the Ventura County Fair Grounds Friday the 24th of July and New York on the 17th Randall’s Island. Be there," he said.
The band have also extended their fall tour across the US, adding headline dates in nine cities including Miami, Washington DC and Sacramento.
Pixies said they have been practicing 40 songs to choose from for their live set. Singer Frank Black told reporters they reunited in Los Angeles, where they tuned up the old material.
He said: "We actually got together for the first time at The Breeders rehearsal space, in an industrial section, south of Los Angeles. I can't say exactly where. We had tacos."
Black said the band had no immediate plans to go into the studio, but have one as yet unnamed, "secret" new song.

...but maybe he was joking and the article doesn't say this secret song will ever see the daylight.
But it's nice to speculate
and frank gives us reasons enough

The Frank quote that they're getting this from (I posted the transcript in the Coachella Press Conference thread):
FB: New songs? No. We don't know any new songs yet... well, we know one... but it's a secret. <laughter>

| There is a new song, and it was recorded during L.A. rehearsals. That's all I know, but that much I was told by a participant. I warned them not to tell me any secrets, cause I post on these boards.... |

Hey everybody
Echo Park is an insider
who
a) could be right about this, because as an insider he could know
b) could easily be lying, because frank told all the insiders to play a long with the joke

Thanks, Eric. Is it just one or are there several or do you know?
Drop me a line again when you're not too busy, it's been awhile. And say hey to Cynthia for me.
BTW, is Caribou done yet? :P
