Are there any live boots circulating online of Pixies that are generally accept as must hear shows? I'm interested in some recommendations if any of you are that deep into these guys.

Brixton Academy '91 video is pretty badass. If you see that, don't hesitate.

The EP is fantastic. I love everything Frank Black/Black Francis does, but it's especially nice to hear this side of him again.

The Pixies introduce new bassist at surprise Echo Park gig
In her place at the Echo Park venue was Kim Shattuck, best known for her work with the Muffs and the Pandoras. Is it heresy to suggest that the blindfolded wouldn't have known the difference? Perhaps, but as someone who's been with the Pixies since the first EP, I bought in from the get-go, with a few obvious reservations.

Hey man. If you want copies then I'll get em. You're pretty much down the road (tassy I think?)
PIxies video wise Town & Country London 1988 & Brixton 1991 are probably the best 2...Athens 89' is also a good show.

I have tickets too. But we're going to Costa Rica in February and it might interfere with my Pixies date...hopefully not though.

Their new EP is very inoffensive. That's not exactly a compliment, but it's very easily digestible.

Hi,

Pixies’ 2013 - 2014 global tour schedule continues to escalate with a series of major South American and European festival performances now confirmed for next Spring and Summer. The band - Black Francis/vocals, guitar, Joey Santiago/guitar, backing vocals, and David Lovering/drums, backing vocals - will kick off the festival season in late March in South America with headline appearances at Lollapalooza Chile, Lollapalooza Argentina, and Lollapalooza Brazil, as well as Colombia’s Festival Estereo Picnic. Pixies will then head to Europe for a series of major festivals that begin May 30 when they headline the Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona, Spain. Tickets for all of these festivals are on sale now at www.pixiesmusic.com/new

Joining the Pixies as touring bassist for the North American, South American and European summer concerts will be Paz Lenchantin (A Perfect Circle, ZWAN, The Entrance Band). “We are really looking forward to playing with her on these dates,” said Lovering. “Working with different bass players is very new for the band, but we’re having a great time doing it.”

Pixies also unveil a brand new music video today for EP-1’s track “Another Toe In the Ocean.” Completely different from the band’s recent music videos, “ATITO” is a 2-D animated clip that was written, directed and animated by Liviu Boar of the Romania-based ReeAnimation. Check out the video here :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XH-vzQwcf4c

Pixies inaugurate the New Year with a 33-city headline tour of North America, starting January 15 in Toronto, Canada. With many more dates to be announced, see the Pixies’ confirmed tour schedule for 2014 so far on www.pixiesmusic.com/new.

La la love you

PIXIES
i'm not going to argue with paz as a choice for a bassist.
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.
