I was thinking about how amazing it would be to see the pixies live especially here in new york and I know how to get tickets for over 100 each. Unfortunetaly I probaly wont end up going unless I convince my fucking friend cause I dont have a car or a way to get there but if I dont go ill be fucking mad and depressed for at least one year

Yeah man. I had the chance to see them in Brazil last May but I couldn't do it because I didn't have enough money. Now I feel so bad and sick and depressed, sometimes I think I will never have that opportunity again. Southamerican tour?? I don't think so, I hope so though. I should have sold my brother to the black market!!! I just needed 80 fucking dollars!!! |

You don't need a car to see the show. The concert is a block away from PENN Station. Train, bus or livery cab, it's all good. Why didn't you, at least, buy 2 tickets when they where on sale for 42 bucks. We had first dibbs on the websites, there is no excuse. Unless of course you don't have a credit card. Either way you should have begged your parents.
There is no shame in going to a concert by yourself when the group is your favorite band. Let me take you back to Nov 30, 1990. I purchased 2 tickets for the Pixies for me and my then girlfriend. She didn't make it to New York until mid December. Do you think I stayed home. Fuck no! I was front and center screaming like a little girl with Black Francis. Before the show some lucky girl bought the ticket from me for face value (I think it was $19.50) I asked for $20.
I puchased 3 tickets for the Dec 12th show. I'm taking my wife and my 17 y/o nephew. I also took him to his very first concert 3 years ago when he was 14. It was the Toadies. RAWK!

Well, if the money and your friend are the only things holding you back-- go. Borrow the money from someone and see this once in a lifetime opportunity. :) I might have to go alone in the Fall because my husband might have to work :( but I will make friends at the show :) |

I spent nearly £400 on three tickets for the brixton gigs, bought train fare and sorted a hostel for the three of us but if the other two pussied out there was NO WAY I was not going, not seeing the pixies is not an option
the room smelled like cupids gym
