The Pixies - CARIBOU / SOMETHING AGAINST YOU / HEY (Live in London Parte 3)

[@MrNosmallwonder]

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.

[@carysfaerie]

Sweet

I love that im jealous

[@francoissyed5341]

Haha

[@urhomies]

Kim always looks so happy, Black looks pissed of, David is feeling the jam and Joey doesn't show any feelings at all!

Classic pixies

Get a deck of cards, shuffle, flip it, shuffle again, play 5 games of high card, throw 7 cards away, get a new deck, shuffle, pick a card at random, sacrifice a memory to time, pick a new card, and you still have no idea.

[@joralebedev8608]

David Bowie was there. He wanted to see if they could recreate the sounds of their album live. They didn't disappoint. Epic.

[@kevindaniel5086]

really? he was in that show? wow, great data

[@daniilbochkovoy3087]

Any proofs?

[@mutinyontheark]

I don't know how to link it, but the documentary included with their greatest hits DVD has this live show and clips of Bowie and others like Vlur talking about how this show influenced them

[@mutinyontheark]

I mean Blur, but mobile KZbin without the app...isn't great. I can't even edit

[@HoonAgain]

mutinyontheark I was like, Vlur? Hmm let me KZbin that, sounds interesting. Blurs good too lol. The Bowie tip is however and appreciated. I bet he was impressed. Which is hard to do I would think.

[@rotisseueryu]

Doolittle hadn’t been released and nobody had heard Hey yet, so when Charles said ‘hey’, some people in the audience said hey back :)

[@cowabungadude7408]

Imagine hearing Hey for the first time at that show :0

[@mutinyontheark]

The response to Black Francis saying "Hey!" started as (planned?) coincidence and became a tradition.

[@beckc.5084]

youre telling me....there were people who listened to this song for the first time....LIVE??? i cant imagine how i wouldve reacted. probably in tears

[@Undaglibenglaubengloben]

Just imagine being there and hearing this

[@goodfuzzysounds]

@@Undaglibenglaubengloben i was there! and a recording of this song was given away on a vinyl EP free with the NME a while later - I always liked this version better than the album! Great song!

A mark of a band is how they sound live. The Pixies are one of the few bands that sound BETTER live then on their albums! AMAZING!!!!

[@Mr420pan]

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.

I'd have to agree. Caribou was glorious

[@briancunningham5832]

May 1 1988 - I was there!!! It was incredible.

[@Darrenski]

The town n country is famed for it's live sound, which is why a lot of bands record live albums there. I've no idea why that is but it definitely is

[@leebutton1062]

Town n Country was a great venue - worked in Kentish Town and 10 minute walk to Hampstead Heath for lunch - nice!

[@cryolasv2]

I concur

[@jdoe27]

i just can't get over how amazing they are. Never heard anything like it

[@BlueHopi144]

they were as good as it gets - and more than predicted . I saw them in 89 /90/93 and it was unbelievable . one of the most impressive bands live ...ever !

The Pixies. The one and only. Is there a better live show of theirs than this one? They’re so good live it’s possible.

[@cowabungadude7408]

Live at Brixton 1991 is massive.

[@cowabungadude7408]

Also, I saw them at horseshoe in Toronto in 2015... a bar with capacity of a few hundred. It felt like watching this clip!!

[@ezkibela]

Brixton 1991, chech their "Tame" song , i think is one of the best songs played on live concert : kzbin.info/www/bejne/apqZm6epeNV8o9Esi=GCMiPa1V6BeKtIya

[@ezkibela]

Brixton 1991 check out their "Tame" song , one of the best songs played live in my opinion: kzbin.info/www/bejne/apqZm6epeNV8o9Esi=GCMiPa1V6BeKtIya But then again there are plenty of shows that we never going to watch couse recording shows was not a common thing to do back in the 90's , expecially at the beggining of the decade.

[@coonscrib]

I heard someone refer to Kim as "A stone cold bass godess". I think that's too perfect.

[@colinwilson4609]

There is a Pixies reunion tour movie called "Loud Quiet Loud" It involves their concert in Reykjavik. Teenaged Icelandic girls seem to luvve Kim Deal.

Barb Rogers, same. I just saw them play with Weezer last night in Portland, used up all of my savings to get as close to the stage as possible for The Pixies, then left after they were done and didn’t stay for more than 2/3 Weezer songs

I don t know the story of alternative rock but I am sure the pixies has a big place in it. HEY is a masterpiece

[@axLhimself]

this is a concert i REALLY wish i would have been to. too bad i wasnt born yet. just imagine hearing Hey for the first time ever like this... i would have been so hyped for their next album, which would come out the next year. Doolittle that is. wow great concert really.

[@rootbeerpies]

Oh, fug me. I give up. Just realized I was in London that night (although, maybe I wasn't.) In any event, I "studied" (i.e., did not study) there from Jan.-Mar. '87, but was adamantly closeted, both emotionally and sexually, and thus determined to avoid anything out-of-the-ordinary that might otherwise cause me to re-evaluate my life. As a result, I saw The Pogues at the same venue (which seemed safe enuf) but avoided this show as well as the Butthole Surfers @ U. of London at that same time.
