They might have played Nomatterday yesterday, if SetlistFM is true

Secondes

And I even like that song now, with Oyster Beds in mind

I don't know, I really like Motoroller....I think all of the tracks have been pretty great sans "you're so impatient"
billgoodman Posted - 09/09/2024 : 08:38:36
Nice song, could be Thunder and Lightning-esque or more HC-type of a song.
Sounds very FB, which is always good.

More thrilled by Oyster Beds and Chicken though

A lot of unknown songs, but I think those are probably Bossa or Trompe songs

Updated and they did play Oyster Beds (debut) and Motoroller (second time?)

Seems it's properly back in the repertoire.

The campaign for Plaster of Paris starts here :)

I think going from The Happening into Vegas / Chicken is a good call

Yeah, that’s an absolutely brilliant rendition of that classic

In 2024

Unreal

The man looks like he did in 93, from the stage even

Agreed. Great energy! Especially for a song like "All Over the World." Just great stuff

https://youtu.be/GTIph4y9EMw



man, all over the world is such an awesome song.
i almost forget about it sometimes. and then i'm surprised when i hear it again how cool it is.
the structure of this type of song is what i'm missing from pixies 2.0, personally

100%. In the top 3 Pixie song of all time for me (All over the World not Debaser).

Dig for Fire and Death Horizon and Chicken and The Navojo Know and 11 songs of Doolittle (a little bit too much, if Surfer Rosa has just 3)

It's really great to see! Was heartening to read that recent interview where Charles said how pleasantly surprised they were about how the Bossa/Trompe material was being received.

someone in the front row at L'Olympia was very pleased when Subba transitioned into D=RxT with a literally 0 second interval (Charles sang "lunaaaaaaaaIhadmeavision")

Like on the Purple Tape - love the transition

Anyone has some insight/ideas/rumours if the Bossa/Trompe-Tour might be continued? The upcoming summer tour is supposed to be a regular tour?

I joined the cult of Souled American / 'cause they are a damn' fine band
billgoodman Posted - 04/04/2024 : 23:05:42
That was a great transition!

The changing of guitars really held back the energy of the show during some parts.

i was at the first london gig.
next to us was a couple who weren't "in the know" which really surprised me.
i also saw greg davies looking for a seat (and not immediately finding one) i think about 15 minutes before the start of the show.

Terrific write up Sprite

Sounds like an amazing experience

Thanks for sharing
Sprite Posted - 03/31/2024 : 01:37:56
Bit late with my review of the last London night. Had a ticket for Sunday and Monday but had a family emergency which meant I had to miss Sunday but fortunately I just made the Monday gig.

Atmosphere was great, good mix of people, young and old, and all 'in the know' that this was a special one. Frank was the chattiest I have seen since the old FB&C concert days.

As well as the show concept intro we got short stories about Cecila Ann, Havalina (about the pigs but also a friend), the Sad Punk (as mentioned above), Head On (a song by the Reid brothers), Motorway to Roswell ('a deep cut', on which I have to respectfully disagree, Space I believe the ultimate deep cut...) as well as several other snippets.

Highlights: All over the world (pure bliss), Stormy Weather (never would I ever have thought this would trounce Blown Away). Bird Dream (spectacular, could easily be absorbed into standard sets), Is she weird, D=RxT, Dig For Fire and the Happening.

Overall all to my surprise I thought the Bossanova half had more impact than TLM. Maybe because I have rated TLM ahead of it for most of my life I had just forgotten just how moving the songs work as a whole. Definitely some binding energy going on there. I felt dreamy and ethereal. I came away with a renewed big big love for the record.

The encore was Vegas Suite, HCYM. Hey and Wave (Uk Surf) of course. Vegas Suite came across really well. Joey was really going for it on the guitar, he looked vey energised in this tune.

Exiting out to the strains of Streams of Whisky by the Pogues directly tipped me into handing over £35 for a one of those eye T-shirts (sneaky bastards). I have not tried it on yet so can't say anything about the quality but I like the design a lot.

What a show, this more chatty Pixies works really well, they should keep it up, it makes a big difference and injects some energy into the crowd.

Overall, an absolute privilege.
