I find this song (Caribou) haunting. I saw Black Francis (at the time) getting out of his big white Town Car before a show and told him this was my favorite song (that week), he said they hadn't played it on tour yet and he played it that night and dedicated it to me. Coolest thing that ever happened to me.

I bought my first pixies cd on a whim. My cousin was in town. He, my brother, and I went to tower records in fresno. The plan was to each buy a new cd to listen to while we played D&D that night and drink jolt cola. I walked past the pixies cd with the taxidermy monkey on the cover, and I immediately froze. I felt something. I just new there was something good in there. I showed my cousin the cd I was going to buy. He asked if I'd ever heard them. I said no. He thought it was dumb to buy a cd of a band I've never heard of. But I did it anyways. I don't remember what he or my brother bought. Cause we never got a chance to listen to them. We played that pixies cd over and over all night long on repeat. Ever song was a hit, and we all were big fans from then on.
