Friends. There is not enough Pixies in this Community or in your life. Go and listen to the whole of Doolittle, right now. That's an order.
I shall be seeing them live tomorrow night for the 5th time in 33 years! They never disappoint.
4I was lucky I got to see them back in... 2011-2012-ish I think, when Kim Deal was back and they did that tour where they just played Doolittle. And then I saw them again later when Paz Lechantin was the bassist. Both times ruled in different ways!
2I saw both of those tours too! Neither disappointed.

Who's on bass now? I recall seeing that Paz got the boot.
1Emma Richardson. I don't really know much about her.... She has big boots to fill.

Story time....
I've been a fan since when Doolittle was first released. In the late 90s, my boss and I got to talking, and she had never heard of the band. She laughed at their ridiculous name. I still made her a short mix tape, so she could hear them, as we did back then. She didn't like them and told me I was weird for liking weird music.
Flash forward to now, when they're revered as alt rock gods. Suck on that, Donna! Now who's laughing?!?
3I wonder if she likes them now? I say this because, I'm sure it's a thing that people who used to think you/I were weird back then, will nowadays swear blind that they liked that stuff the whole time and that there was never a time they didn't like it. In a slightly Orwellian way.

At my high-school there was a band that played at most of the parties & all they knew were songs by The Pixies. We had some ragers, man.
One of the many little blessings I've lucked into.
3I am un chien Andalusia!
3If you absolutely insist I listen to Doolittle again... fiiiine! :)
