i'm going to the midnight show on saturday at hammerstein.

you can still get tixs for the early show.

"You are the son of incestuous union!" - best ever Pixies lyric.

I had a talent rhyme

That lead to Classical Gas

An on the planet of glass

I looked for something renowned but my eyes got blood red

Lots of girls just shook their heads

and revicate you with sound

This is the planet of sound, this ain't no rock-n-roll town, this ain't no fuckin' around This is the planet of sound.

I made a new iPod playlist yesterday for trainer workouts. The theme is songs with a high adrenaline/fear factor. It's got a heavy dose of the Pixies (all from Surfer Rosa) and Rage Against the Machine (nobody is as pissed off as Zach de la Rocha). I had a great workout last night. As somebody who hates indoor workouts, this could be one of my best training devices, yet.

Oh my, The pixies rock.......I saw them in Oregon and in Nashville.........Frank Black for president!

They rocked on Letterman last night. Sounded just as good as they did 12-14 years ago.

"Gravedigger, when you dig my grave could you make it shallow? So that I can feel the rain."

My brohter saw them twice and he said the best thing about the show was Frank's "sweaty baby head."

Talk about a band that was way before their time..............

I've always had a secret crush on Kim Deal (being a bass player myself).



Now I'm more of a Melissa Auf Der Maur man.

"What's your claim?" - Ben Gravy
"Your best work is the work you're excited about" - Rick Rubin

"Best damn band of the 80-90's"

I wouldn't qualify it: Pixies are one the best damn bands, period.

Joey Santiago could flat out play.

I also like Frank Black and the Catholics.

"In case of flood climb to safety"

Slightly different musical genre, but Hole used to have a smoking hot female bass player... I don't remember her name though

Then of course there's Chicago's own girl drum/bass hard rock outfit: Evil Beaver... http://www.ridethebeaver.com/

That's her, too!!!

She damn near got the gig to replace Jason Newsted, but they went with the Mexican guy.

A friend here at work saw them last night at The Hammerstein and was absolutely blown away.

Unfortunately I already made plans for Saturday night.

I hope we all get a full concert report from you Bryan!

PS Somehow this thread (like most ST threads) has turned into yet another "Hottie Thread." Sigh. A lot of dudes out there not getting laid regularly. I can't imagine that. Kinda makes me sad for 'em all.

Tibbs!

I miss the 70's... now we get what, The Darkness? Jet? Gimme a break... :-)

Don't worry, there's always AC/DC!!! (or as a Oz tabloid once said: "More Songs About Humping and Booze" - obvious T-Heads reference)

SAC - the Strokes are a catchy fad band, but Jack White is the real deal. Give a careful listen to their albums -- he's got a lot of talent and a pretty broad range. dresses funny, though.

One of my all time favorite bands. I named my bike Allison after the Bassanova song and had a kitten named Mr. Grieves for a short time. I think I've seen Frank Black play about 5-6 times.

Some favorites:

• Caribou - my all time fave
• Vamos
• Cactus
• Crackity Jones
• No. 13 Baby
• All Over the World
• Subbacultcha
• Hey
• Is She Weird
• Motorway to Roswell
• Allison
• the Sad Punk
• Into the White

One day I'll meet that girl with No. 13 tatooed on her tit

<sigh>



"Bloody your hand on a catus tree. Wipe it on your dress and sent it to me."

I have... don't be too disapointed when they come out with newer stuff... there, there ;-)

fuck yeah, the pixies are one of my all time favorites. any one ever notice they did alphabetical sets? at least twice when i saw them they did...





PS i think Black Francis is one of the greatest screamers in rock history....

Gee, with a screen name like "Dire Wolf" I'd think you go Grateful Dead on us here ...

Alabama Getaway
Before I have to hit him, I hope he's got the sense to run

Bertha
I had a hard run, running from your window
I had a run in, run around and a run down
Run around the corner, corner, Lord ran smack into a tree

I Need A Miracle
Can't get around and I can't run away: I need a miracle every day

Jack Straw
Ain't a bed can give us rest now, you keep us on the run
Ain't no place Ben's gonna rest now, while Shannon's on the run

Looks Like Rain
Run me round, make me hurt again and again

Red Car
If you run as fine as you look, where could we not be by dawn
If you run as fine as you look, God knows you must run all right

Sugaree
And if that jubilee don't come, maybe I'll meet you on the run

Ship Of Fools
And all that could not sink or swim were just left there to float

Alas, no references to bikes ...

You lost my faith with the negative shots at the Manchester sound but your love of the Blackness has me praising your name again.

All hail jaylew!

Randymar - awesome advice. I did a whole string of Dead quotes earlier. I'll get back to them, I'm sure. Some of those "run" quotes are pushing it a bit. Just having the word run isn't quite enough.

Tibbs - my vote for best screamer goes to Zack de la Rocha from Rage Against the Machine. Bob Mould had some good ones, too (Husker Du)

Jaylew and I already discussed that the pixies are one of the best bands ever on a previous thread. He's old school pixie's fan, I didn't see where he ripped the manchester boy's , I thought they had a good scene back in the day, I dig that hammond organ that was used by many a manchester band.
