frank, kim, joey, and dave... at it again

you're damn right natalie and i got tickets for the pixies show at constitution hall. this is the big reunion tour, yo, and i'm not going to miss this unprecedented moment in american pop music.

there are few, if any, bands for whose shows i would fight to get the first tickets. when pixiesmusic.com made a few available last wednesday morning, though, i must have been among the lucky few to hit "refresh" at the right time. we snagged front-and-center orchestra seats.

Hold my head
We'll trampoline
Finally through the roof
On to somewhere near
And far in time

...

Say to me
Where have you been
Finally through the roof
And how does lemur skin
Reflect the sea?

We will wade in the shine of the ever
We will wade in the shine of the ever
We will wade in the tides of the summer
Every summer

indeed.

you're a pretty lucky hombre, dave. have fun, i know you'll be among the greatest pixies enthusiasts in the entire hall. all your evangalism is paying off. i wouldn't have listened to this band if it weren't for your constant nagging. you see, they're not from seattle, so... well, they were off my radar at a time when they should've been on. their show at coachella was top notch, and i can only imagine they're better now than earlier this year. your readership will expect full details after the show.
