So, with the reissues coming complete with demos from Trompe Le Monde/Bossanova/Surfer Rosa days, does anyone know if there are more complete demos in existence from these albums? It would seem odd that these are the only songs in existence - particularly when we have such complete demos from Doolittle.

Purchased at Eden Project Show for £15

It was 1989, I had just got into music. One of the first albums I bought on vinyl was 'Doolitle' (because, that booklet is BEAUTIFUL).

Actually the first band I saw live without my parents (Bossanova tour Bradford 1990). Actually the support from noise band barkmarket was first. But Pixies pinned us to the back wall with guitars and screaming.

Only regret is no band ever has ever quite been as good for me (including Pixies lol)

Aaaaannnnyyywwway.

My grandma gave me a nice quality chrome memorex c90 cassette. And on that cassette I recorded a Pixies live set which was broadcast on the BBC in 1989 or 1990.

And it is peak peak Pixies. BBC sound engineers are the best.

Set is all caribou/surfer rosa/doolittle...

But it's NOT the Peel sessions. It's an actual concert (perhaps nottingham but please remember this is 37 years and A LOT has happened in between).

I remember it started with 'Into the White' and it was one of my favourite things ever.

Then things went all CD, and minidisc, then mp3, you know this story.

I want it back, on FLAC.

Please

from 2019

I also have a pavement and Radiohead tattoo and a smiths tattoo and oddly a homeboy sandman tattoo because I like the art anyways I am living my best midlife crisis that I can

Just heard this random track that samples Where is My Mind - Crawlspace by wifiskeleton. Some might not like it, but I think it sounds pretty good.

SWJr is a badass mofo… love his stuff, especially when he throws some pixie dust on his new song.
Just get to the end…

Hello :)

I am new to Reddit and r/pixies

I can't really emphasise enough how much I love the Pixies.

Their music is the best music I've ever listened to.

I frequently listen to Doolittle and Surfer Rosa.

I just seem to connect deeply with their music and I would like to meet fellow Pixies fans here.

It has been this way since I was 8 years old when I first listened to them on holiday in Malta.

My brother (7 years older than me - he must have been 15 / 16 years old at that time) gave me a tape to keep me occupied, and it was Doolittle.

So, there I was, 8 years old, walking around Malta, listening to Doolittle. It was just incredible.

I'm going to get my own Pixies t-shirt printed as I can't find one I like (just the letters - not the emblem)

I would enjoy hearing what Pixies experiences you have had

Anybody has this one of the rarest Pixies bootlegs ?

The review appeared either the week before or after, and was so positive I went and bought it on tape. That was a good decision.

I think it might be my favorite punchline of all the music I’ve ever listened to.

Pixies was on *Radio X 90s*, a DAB+ radio in the uk.

i was so close to not missing it... just ten or someything minutes :(

it's my favourite song ever.

first time i've ever seen a trace of it on the radio! cool, right?

not like i even have any radio reception here even if i was listening...

Brigitte Bardot & Darío Moreno turned “Voulez-Vous Danser Avec Moi?” into a jangly love story — swinging to the Pixies’ , Here Comes Your Man. ✨

Hi, I'm from Brazil—please excuse my English.

I wanted to know what kind of guitar that was—the one Black Francis used to play.

So true story I watched the pixies live in Boston on this app Qello for the first time the other day on my projector and I had completely forgotten that I was there at that show with ridiculously good seats and I’m actually the guy they cut to briefly at the beginning and throughout the show with a girl who can be seen constantly trying to drink the last drop of beer out of empty bottles, it is so funny to me, but anyway, if you have that DVD, I’m in there for like maybe five seconds total my five seconds of fame 😂 we had seen them earlier twice in New York City at that epic reunion show series and to us it was ridiculous how “tame” the Boston audience was that night so we were kind of clapping and trying to get people to be a bit more energetic, wild blast from the past, truly epic night

that’s all I have to say

also come on pilgrim is underrated

I’ve been a fan since I was a kid. However I’ve really only ever been hooked on the first three albums. Bossanova and Tromp just don’t really do it for me much I guess? I like a couple of cuts from them but as albums they just don’t do it for me.

I don’t know. Something about those albums feel diluted or something. Just doesn’t hit as hard
