    I saw them at the Auckland show of the Doolittle tour 2 Fridays ago. Very cool to see them although tbh the show didn't absolutely spin my wheels. I've got pics but don't know how to post them here sorry.

    I have this CD I made a while ago of my favourite Pixies songs:

    1. The Holiday Song
    2. Levitate Me
    3. Break My Bones
    4. Broken Face
    5. Gigantic
    6. Where Is My Mind?
    7. Debaser
    8. Wave of Mutilation
    9. I Bleed
    10. Here Comes Your Man
    11. Dead
    12. Monkey Gone To Heaven
    13. No. 13 Baby
    14. Rock Music
    15. Velouria
    16. Allison
    17. Dig For Fire
    18. Is She Weird
    19. Ana
    20. All Over The World
    21. The Happening
    22. Hang Wire
    23. Trompe le Monde
    24. Planet of Sound
    25. Alec Eiffel
    26. The Sad Punk
    27. Head On
    28. Bird Dream of the Olympus Mons


    Amazingly all these songs fit on one cd (total 78 mins).
    Covers every EP/Album.
    And No. 13 Baby at track position 13 is a total accident lol

    Been listening to my 'Favourites Compilation' all afternoon/evening, loud as I had the house to myself.
    Perfect concert warm-up!
    8-):mrgreen:


    P.S Trompe le Monde was released one day before Nevermind, Bossanova one day after my 6th Birthday!

    I just got back from the concert not too long ago.
    I must say that was f'ing awesome!
    Was like one great big party in there.
    It is the first time I've been to a concert where they play an entire album.
    They started with B Sides, then got stuck into Doolittle, then had an encore with more B Sides followed by a final encore with Come On Pilgrim and Surfer Rosa songs, that last encore everyone started going nuts.
    If they played Bossanova and Trompe le Monde it would've been the icing on the cake!
    And I got myself a t-shirt!
    I'm going to be high over this for a while.
    They are playing again tomorrow night, I think tickets are still available, so tempted haha

    Q. So what band did you see last night?

    A. Pixies

    Respone from person asking Qn: Sounds gay

    Me: Don't knock em till you try em, they are very influential

    Other person: No thanks

    :x

    People judge them by their name but don't know how great they are.
