Anybody a fan? I know it's a longshot but his solo work is my favourite music ever.

Going to see him next week YAY!! I am determined to stay sober after only remembering half of the last gig. Although having to sit in a pub from 3pm to see the pre-core is not going to be conducive to soberness, strong willpower vibes required.

He is a genius,i love his solo work but have to say the "pixes" are one of my all time fav bands ever!!
Whare are you going to see him?

I like him too - being a long-term pixies fan, but have also seen him solo once and although most of his material is not as strong as pixies stuff, he's still well worth seeing.

Have fun!

ooooh do tell us all about it

I love the Pixies although they scared me a bit at the time, in fact oddly enough the docco Gouged was on tv today.

Thanks for your messages, I too love the PIXIES
but with only a few albums one can get bored. Frank Black isn't totally consistent but I love Teenager of the year and most of the Frank Black and The Catholics stuff. Shall report back, even though I've seen him a few times, hopefully he will be out of his loafers with no shoes phase

Well apparently his gig is just new stuff which is ok with me, who gives a fuck anyway a night out is a night out yay.
