@Fran

The pixies ? How you rate the show ?

Fran · October 31, 2018, 1:36pm

The show was excellent, sound great, just lashed out the hits, no bullshit pandering to the audience. Atmosphere was poor enough though. Middle-aged, middle-class brits are dry as fuck

glasagusban · October 31, 2018, 1:44pm

They don’t talk to the audience they just rip though the songs, I think they’re fuckin brilliant.

Did satriani do his mad guitar solo party piece, playing the guitar with a beer bottle and that craic?

Ah Christ!

Charles Thompson is milking the fuck out of the Pixies’ legacy.

He pretty much conceded that the reason they reformed was because he had kids going to college.

caulifloweredneanderthal · October 31, 2018, 2:01pm

I saw them on the first reunion tour (04 I think) at Brixton Academy. Great show, but I haven’t brought myself to listening to a full Pixies album since.

glasagusban · October 31, 2018, 2:05pm

Really odd post. I suppose other old bands that still play live are doing it for the love of it? Or is it not ok to go see a band once they are past their best? You get that being a musician is a job, would you rather they go work in tesco?

farmerinthecity · October 31, 2018, 2:25pm

They must have played around the UK and Ireland every year since they reformed and twice some years.

Thompson pissed me off in Marley Park when he walked off stage mid-Debaser as he said his guitar was broken.

After that I saw them again in the Iveagh Gardens but when I saw that they were playing in Trinity less than a year later I thought enough for a while.

farmerinthecity · October 31, 2018, 2:26pm

I saw them in the Phoenix Park on that tour. They were brilliant.

I was listening to Trompe Le Monde earlier. Probably their worst album pre break up but still an 8 or a 9 out of 10 for me.

glasagusban · October 31, 2018, 2:28pm

You’ve now moved the goal posts and not answered the question.

His guitar was unplugged in marley park to get them off the stage and it was not in the middle of debaser you are making that up.

The iveagh gardens and trinity gigs were both summer, basically a year apart.

What a load of tripe.
