Pixies sideshows announced
» V Festival - Avica Resort, QLD - April 1, 2007
In the lead up to their festival appearances headlining the inaugural Australian V Festivals in Sydney and on the Gold Coast, Pixies have announced that they will play two warm up shows.
With classic anthems like "Here Comes Your Man", "Gigantic", "Debaser", "Wave of Mutilation" and "Monkey Gone To Heaven”, the band became the pioneers of alternative music as we know it today. After releasing the bands fifth and final studio record (to date) “Trompe Le Monde”, the band's grueling schedule, plus constant touring saw the Pixies break up in ’93. After an 11-year hiatus, Pixies hysteria reignited across the globe when the band reformed for some live dates in 2004, including festival headline slots at Coachella, Reading and Leeds.
The reaction from fans and critics alike has been overwhelming, with the chemistry between the four musicians arguably better than ever. There have been unconfirmed rumours of a new album but for now come and see the magic of the Pixies, live in these very special shows.
Wednesday, March 28 - The Palace, Melbourne
Friday, March 30 - Luna Park Big Top, Sydney
