Pixies Playing At V Festival And Bumbershoot

By the time internal tensions splintered the Pixies in 1993, their influence on such acts as Nirvana and Radiohead -- and on alternative rock in general -- had already been cemented. And while the group's upcoming reunion tour shocked fans familiar with the band's famously feuding past, the demand for tickets comes as no surprise to those involved with the tour. "I don't want to come off as wacky, but I expected it," says the group's agent, Marc Geiger. "I firmly thought that, like a fine wine, the Pixies only appreciated in terms of value."...

...After Coachella, the Pixies head to Europe for more than 20 headlining and festival appearances ending July 11 at Scotland's T in the Park Festival. Although the band has been rumored as a possible Lollapalooza headliner, Geiger insists plans for the ensuing six weeks are undecided, beyond August stops at the V Festival in the United Kingdom and a Sept. 6 appearance at Seattle's Bumbershoot festival.

New Material On Forthcoming Reunion Tour!!!

The Pixies have revealed they will be playing new material on their forthcoming reunion tour. The band play their first live shows in 12 years this spring, kicking off in Winnipeg on April 14. The jaunt includes an extensive trawl round the summer European festivals, a couple of dates supporting Red Hot Chili Peppers, and a four-night, sold-out residency at London Brixton Academy.

"A statement on the band's new website pixiesmusic.com states: "The Pixies have rehearsed and they will rehearse again in March in a secret location in Los Angeles. "Yes, they have decided which tunes they are doing. For the most part, they'll be doing Pixies ' tunes. As for new songs, there's a Latvian lullaby, a Czech dirge and a Bulgarian ballad."
