@@alexsetterington3142 bossonova is great too. velouria and havalina. havalina might be my favorite pixies. yeah i got into them out of order. i didn’t get into pixies until like 2007.
Unbelievably good band! They're picking from only 2 albums and an EP, this setlist is 23 songs in alphabetical order and flows like they planned it that way. Full setlist: Bone Machine Cactus Caribou Crackity Jones Dead Debaser Gigantic Gouge Away Hey The Holiday Song I Bleed Isla de Encanta Levitate Me Mr Grieves Monkey Gone to Heaven Nimrod's Son River Euphrates Tame There Goes My Gun Vamos Wave of Mutilation Where Is My Mind?
I had a number of audience recordings of concerts and seem to remember at least one other that started with the encore (Into the White) and the set was in reverse-alphabetical order! I was at the last gig they played in Uk. It was at the Mean Fiddler in London and I was convinced at the time that the set was in alphabetical order of the first chord or song key. Don't quite me.on that. I interviewed Black Francis for my Pixies fanzine prior to the gig too.
Saw the Pixies many times when they were new in Boston. I'd say along with Mission Of Burma and The Cars they were most important and also, most important bands we exported.
Pixies literally saved my festival - after a failed attempt to meet half our party that came up later to give them their tickets and only messaging barrels (remember those!?) or radio Avalon to get messages out there, was trudging upset and dejected past the pyramid stage...when Bone Machine kicked off...I spun around on my heels and doubled back to watch what was one of the best surprise performances of the weekend and got my festival mojo back! I've been a mad Pixies fan ever since. This is a priceless recording IMO. Super hot weekend, people queuing for the shade under the trees...Thanks for sharing 😊
Was boiling hot. No shade, long queues for water. Missed the Pixies unfortunately, looking for a friend who missed us the entire festival - we had taken her tent in our car, she took the train doh! Wouldn't be a problem now.
The little improvised melodic section at 31:56 Joey plays in the middle of his Vamos noise vamp here is the intro to Billy Squire’s Lonely is the Night. It sounded familiar and I guess only now did I figure it out.
Only got there a year later, was amazing though. Heli landing near the front of the Pyramid during the Cure, seems like a flashback. Got Pixies at Reading tho so all's a ball
Crazy how good they sounded live...wasnt there a video before LoudQuietLoud that had a compilation of some of their live shows and tour diary from the first era? I found one on here but it was only 30 min long...the one I remember had at least an hour or more...guess ill just have to dig through and watch the tubers tapes! thanks for this btw!!!
@@virtualglitterwell I saw the end of Throwing Muses and the whole of Wonder Stuff but have no recollection of seeing the Pixies. I couldn't have wandered off, surely? I know our group of friends was very agitated about a buddy who had travelled separately and not shown up.
