I hear they're going for $100+ right now. AND I've heard of one being sold for $250.
I'd let mine go for some astronomical price, like something stated as in the above. - Thu, 26 Feb 2004 9:06pm

$100?!? You fuckin' joking?!?

For one, there at the curling club, secondly, HOW DARE they fuckin' charge that much? Ya know what sux? People are willing to pay it. It's a slap in the face for the true fans, the ones that cant afford that much.

If it's true, methinks Frank owes us a cheap set. :) - Thu, 26 Feb 2004 10:55pm

I wish I had got them for $30, but having seen them twice back in their heyday, I will settle for the memories. - Fri, 27 Feb 2004 9:01am

Grow a heart. Money doesn't make the world go around, or rather it shouldn't. For those who would charge some outrages price: YOUR FUCKING BASTARDS! Stop thinking about yourselves. You reap what you sow.

I saw the Pixies in Van in 92, and yes they rocked!!

Malcolm are you going to get an interview before the show? If so ask them about a few tracks off of Surfa, as a few songs i believe, captured their break-up before it even happened. - Fri, 27 Feb 2004 10:55am

Meh, I bought four tickets. I gave one as a b-day gift, sold one at cost to a friend, and profited $25 off selling the third to stanger. Evil. I'd be more than willing to let mine go for $200 if someone's willing pay for it. If someone is so desperate as to pay $200 for a ticket, I can put them out of their hurt and sell them my ticket for that price. That is because I think of others first, before myself.
Sow that, pal. I'm a fucking bastard. - Fri, 27 Feb 2004 12:44pm

If someone would pay $200 for the Pixies, all the power to them.

Frank Black said it himself, the tour is a money grab so cash in kids...

And wouldn't "the fans" who couldn't afford to go, be all lined up with the scalpers Saturday morning? - Fri, 27 Feb 2004 5:42pm

The money is still talking. No heart involved but whatever your probably toothless to mister! Lets see if you can sell your tick for $200 then, as you are thinking about others, not the 200, right? Tools. - Fri, 27 Feb 2004 7:12pm

I paid $150 for a pair for my wife and I. Expensive? Maybe, but in our minds it is well worth it. If I was in town when the tickets went on sale, I'd have been in line. No animosity to those who made money on ticket sales either.

I hope there will be drinks available. - Sat, 28 Feb 2004 9:29am

Depriving true fans by selling tickets at ridiculous markups my ass. If one was a true fan, they would have lined up like the rest of us at 7:30 in the morning, or got a friend to. I have no problem with helping out the richest pixie fan by selling a ticket or 2 for 150 bux. - Sat, 28 Feb 2004 9:35am

I'm offering my 3 extra tickets to my friends (mostly those that live outta town) who are big Pixies at cost - the first 3 to confirm get 'em. Between the friends I went down to the Mac with, and another who picked up tics later that day, I have access to about 18 tickets. My friends for the most part are selling / giving them to other friends but I'm sure 1 or 2 are gonna wind up on ebay. If I had more extra's I'd consider takin' pity on other poor ticketless Pixie's fans and sell 'em tickets at a fair price... which is probably around $50.... - Sat, 28 Feb 2004 10:15am
