| Message Board > Music Chitchat - Heavy > Pixies Play Victora Apr 21st!! |
| Dave Noisy User Info... | Hey everyone, i'm very happy to announce the Pixies (who have reformed, in case you're outta the loop) will be playing on April 21st at the Curling Club!! Unfortunately i don't know when tickets go on sale.. Details about the tour (their first show will be in Winnipeg!) at http://www.FrankBlack.net . Check out the Forum there if you wanna chat with other FB/Pixies fans. Say hi if you're from Victoria as well. Peas out, - Dave EDIT: URL: http://www.FrankBlack.net - Mon, 9 Feb 2004 12:03pm | ||
| Shaggy User Info... | Looks like we can expect another speakers corner with a wasted Frank Black appearing again ;) - Mon, 9 Feb 2004 1:20pm | ||

| AwK User Info... | I just saw this at Frankblack.net and came here to share the news...The gig at Sugar was awesome..I am there for sure April 21st... - Mon, 9 Feb 2004 7:09pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I was supposed to see them at the commodore back in 92. The problem was that I wasn't quite yet of legal age. It turned out to be their last ever show... Until now. I will not be missing the Victoria or Vancouver shows. - Mon, 9 Feb 2004 7:18pm | ||
| jay brown User Info... | the Pixies, Primus, and Janes Addiction at the Forum in van back in the late eighties I do believe or maybe early nineties I cant remember.. the show rocked though. - Mon, 9 Feb 2004 8:20pm | ||
| Bong User Info... | I've seen them in Boston, New York and Montreal, and they were one of my first college radio interviews on CHUO in Ottawa in 88 or 89. Great band, actually they are one of the bands that got me through that horrible period called the 80's! It otta be a good show! Peace, Kola - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 12:59pm | ||

| Dave Noisy User Info... | Mentioned in the TC today: http://www.canada.com/victoria/timescolonist/story.asp?id=512A0D28-2EF8-48EA-AF55-7E5DE858DFD8 Too bad they didn't mention a certain Victoria-based source... - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 2:00pm | ||
| MD User Info... | Thanks for posting our article Dave, and great work on Frank's website. But I would be remiss if I didn't mention that we knew about this show sometime around November, but were asked very nicely to keep it quiet from several sources, including the band's management -- which, out of respect, we did until today when they confirmed it. In any case, it will be great to see the band here. - Mike - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 2:18pm | ||
| Dirty Mirror User Info... | All I can say is that we should get down on our hands and knees and thank Frank Black for deigning to visit our town. The Pixies are quite possibly one of the most influential bands of our modern time. Kurt Cobain once said that he could only hope to aspire to be as good as The Pixies. Everyone should try to see this show!!!! - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 2:43pm | ||
| Gabri~hell User Info... | This has got to be some of the most shocking news I have ever heard! Well, at least, this week. I predict audience sing~a~longs will drown out Black Francis. It will be interesting to see the inside of the Curling Club... - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 4:01pm | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | Fucking A ! - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 8:20pm | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | FUCKING A ! - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 8:22pm | ||
| KnifeGhost User Info... | I fucking can't fucking believe this..... I'm already having seizure just imagining what it'll be like..... - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 9:17pm | ||
| Frank the Clown User Info... | Big fucking deal. Its not like its Beyonce, Fifi Dobson, Justin, Nickleback, Eminem, Mariah Carey or any other GOOD band. Maybe I'd go if they were opening for Matthew Good or something. I don't recall seeing The Pixies on the MTV music awards OR the Brit awards OR the AMA's. No hype, no like - YEAH RIGHT!!! - THIS NEWS IS BETTER THAN WAKING UP TO A BLOWJOB! I CANNOT BELIEVE THE PIXIES ARE GOING TO PLAY OUR CURLING CLUB. I'M FREAKING OUT! - Tue, 10 Feb 2004 9:26pm | ||
| Livevic Scott User Info... | DAMMIT! i'm not going to be here.... However I think I can see them in Edmonton!!!! =) - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 9:07am | ||
| brooke User Info... | Do they have a warm-up band touring with them? Who??? And who is promoting this show? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 11:28am | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | No touring band, it's up to the local promoters to decide who's gonna open, etc.. IM gets my vote. =) - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 4:30pm | ||
| KnifeGhost User Info... | Eat it, Gallup, The Poppies get this one!!!! Arm wrestle for it? Huh, huh? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 4:57pm | ||
| METALNECK User Info... | Openers for the pixies. hmmm. I would like to see some no name bands that I wouldn't otherwise be bothered with seeing. Give them and us some exposure to new talent. Otherwise let me open with my hardcore Spice Girls cover band. This show will of course sell out so does anyone know ticket info? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 5:07pm | ||
| Nik Olaz User Info... | this will be the best grindcore show ever!!!!! - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 5:18pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | It should be The Hoosegow dammit. I mean who wants to see a bunch of opening bands that try to sound like the headliner anyways? Plus, I got a Pixies tattoo 13 years ago. That should count for something, right? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 6:22pm | ||
| [+} User Info... | who is promoting this show, and how do i get in contact with him/her? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 7:18pm | ||
| Livevic Scott User Info... | *laugh* if I was the promoter i'd totally be hiding on the downlow to avoid the 5000 bands that are gonna want to open this gig *laugh* =) Its cool they're leaving it to local openers though, too many shows are packaged these days, I think it does something to hurt the scenes in each city a little. - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 8:26pm | ||
| KnifeGhost User Info... | Scott, I dunno what the fuck you're saying, I've gotta be the only guy to think of opening for them....... Luckily I literally can't imagine opening for The Pixies.... The fucking Pixies..... OH GOD...... Any word yet on when they're going on sale? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 8:32pm | ||
| Brett User Info... | who are the pixies?? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 9:07pm | ||
| mi.coll. User Info... | yes. when are these tickets going on sale?? - Wed, 11 Feb 2004 10:59pm | ||
| utopian society User Info... | I heard 2-4 weeks for tickets. - Thu, 12 Feb 2004 5:55am | ||
| neocalanus User Info... | hello - new member. insert wave here. i think getting tix is going to be very interesting. i might as well just have a heart attack waiting and planning. god. - Thu, 12 Feb 2004 9:14am | ||
| brooke User Info... | Yeah, it would be pretty amazing to play with the Pixies. Thanks for the vote of confidence Dave! I won't hold my breath though. But we could all arm wrestle for the fun of it... Waiting for tickets to go on sale... ... ... - Thu, 12 Feb 2004 3:44pm | ||
| Rob User Info... | YESSSSSS!!!!! and we dont even have to wait for that shitty bear mountain place to get a good all ages show. I think there's only 900 person capacity in curling club eh? Please anyone post anything they can about purchasing tickets.. - Thu, 12 Feb 2004 9:26pm | ||
| Trailer Park Boy Julian User Info... | Yeah - this is the craziest thing I've heard in a damn long time... and it's great!! I heard a month or two ago that the Pixies were gettin' back together for a tour. Then I heard they were only playing 21 dates in North America. I thought my best hope of seein' them would be goin' to Vancouver or Seattle. Low and behold Victoria lucks out... and there's no way in hell I'm missin' this show.... - Thu, 12 Feb 2004 10:38pm | ||
| KnifeGhost User Info... | Brooke, it could be fun, fun even your skinny vegan ass could probably beat me... Any word on tickets? Anyone? - Fri, 13 Feb 2004 12:56am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | The promoter is from Vancouver, as far as I know. This is just there warmup for the tour anyways, so it should be cool cause there just gonna jam, still... ANyone know when tickets go on sale?!? - Fri, 13 Feb 2004 1:32am | ||
| wee User Info... | tickets are going on sale soon enough. be patient and don't phone to pester local record stores, as they know as little as you do at this point! - Fri, 13 Feb 2004 6:50am | ||
| mi.coll. User Info... | when do they go on sale. i'm getting panicky. - Sun, 15 Feb 2004 5:51pm | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | Official word regarding THE PIXIES, April 21st at the Victoria Curling Club: Tickets go on sale Saturday February 21st at the McPherson Box Office, Ditch Records and Lyle's Place. They will be $32.50 plus service charges. This show is indeed all ages. Charge by phone is available through the McPherson box office. There are no tickets available over the internet for this show. Please refrain from calling the Curling Club for info on this event. Please buy your tickets when they go onsale to avoid disappointment. - Mon, 16 Feb 2004 4:51pm | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | Just at Lyles today and they said that a promoter hadn't been chosen yet ? ... oh well , fucking A ! - Mon, 16 Feb 2004 5:15pm | ||
| [+} User Info... | so there is no promoter to contact about opening? any audition? or is this a"you must be friends with an unseen promoter" type deal? - Mon, 16 Feb 2004 7:15pm | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | Lets just say they were very veg about any info on anything ? ��.. but he did say there is a biding war or clamor and promo has not been decided . He did say though �the Van shows are already sold out !!� ... soooo FUCK !!! - Mon, 16 Feb 2004 9:45pm | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | I am one half of the promotion team who is putting on 7 out of 8 of the Pixies shows in Canada. None of the shows are "sold out". All 8 shows go on sale this Saturday Feb 21st between 9:30 and 10:30am depending on the outlet. The Commodore shows are primarily being sold through Ticketmaster, with a few tickets in the record stores. If you have a band and would seriously like to open for The Pixies, please send me an email. But ultimately, The Pixies will decide who the opening bands will be and it is probable that there will not be room for a local band at all. - Mon, 16 Feb 2004 10:16pm | ||
| neocalanus User Info... | holy flirking snit! well, at least the nail biting will end this saturday. what do you guys recommend for maximizing our ability to get tix? should we be lining up at these tix outlets at some ungodly hour of the morning or over night or what? - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 6:55am | ||
| neocalanus User Info... | one more thing.....malcolm, since you are in the know, do you know which of these outlets will have a higher number of tix, or are they divided equally between the three outlets? - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 7:31am | ||
| kromkamp User Info... | malcolm sos, thanks greatly for posting some official information. Can you tell us which shows are general admission vs. assigned seating, and which other shows will not be sold through ticketmaster? Thanks! Andy K. - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 9:27am | ||
| kromkamp User Info... | sorry, one other quick question - what will the ticket limit be? 4 or 2 (or something else)? Thanks again! - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 9:30am | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | ok, so many questions: McPherson box office will sell the bulk of the Victoria tickets and you can buy from them in person or over the phone. Tickets will be slightly cheaper at Ditch and Lyle's; no official limit on # of tickets per person in Victoria but in other cities where Ticketmaster is involved, the limit is 8 tickets per person. All cities are through TM except Victoria and Saskatoon. None of the shows are reserved seating and all are all ages except Vancouver which is 19+ both nights. hope this helps... - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 10:18am | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | Sorry, correction: Saskatoon is through Ticketmaster and Regina is not. There will be some tickets at local record stores in each city as well. - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 10:32am | ||
| DamnDirtySteve User Info... | MalcolmSOS, thank you SO much for all the info. Looks like I'm driving up to Victoria Friday night from Seattle to make sure I can get some tickets. Two quick questions, if you don't mind: 1. You said they go on sale between 9:30 and 10:30 depending on the outlet. Which go on sale when? I'm planning to get Victoria tix in person while having friends at home try to get Vancouver tix (both nights), so those are the ones I need to know about. 2. For the Vancouver tix through Ticketmaster, do you know if they'll be available through US Ticketmaster outlets? Like, can I walk in to Tower Records and buy them? And can I use ticketmaster.com, or would it be ticketmaster.ca? I know these seem like insane questions, but I wanna make sure I don't miss out! - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 10:47am | ||
| kromkamp User Info... | Thanks for the quick feedback, I appreciate it. Interesting, we all assumed Winnipeg was reserved seats since almost everything at Burton Cummings theater seems to be that way. Guess I gotta book my flight for earlier now to get a good spot! Now, the most important question: How can we get you to put us on the VIP list :-) Thanks again, Andy K. - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 10:49am | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | Sorry, my mistake, Winnipeg is indeed reserved seating. - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 11:08am | ||
| Beergeek User Info... | I'm coming in from San Francisco for this show -- anyone have a phone number for the McPherson box office where I can get tickets? Thanks, Jeff - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 1:46pm | ||
| Number 5 User Info... | Will cameras be allowed for the Victoria show? - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 1:58pm | ||
| wee User Info... | box office # (250) 386-6121 jeff, feel free to email me if you need other info. - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 2:04pm | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | Hey guys, i've posted the official press release: http://www.frankblack.net - first News item. - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 2:31pm | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | I hear it's a all ages show at the curling rink , so well it be similar to the Moterhead show and have a beer gardens and the lounge up stairs open ? - Tue, 17 Feb 2004 3:01pm | ||
| neocalanus User Info... | thanks for the info! - Wed, 18 Feb 2004 5:44am | ||
| neocalanus User Info... | so people! what's the good word on tomorrow? anyone else buying tix from the macpherson box office? what time are you getting there? i am excited and nervous and have no goddman nails left. frigg. p.s. malcom...nice piece in this week's monday. i didn't know you guys did the modest mouse show. it was awesome. do you remember the names of the bands that opened for them? - Fri, 20 Feb 2004 5:55am | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | This just in guys - the Calgary show sold out in under 10 minutes. Ouch. Good luck to you all.... - Fri, 20 Feb 2004 7:55am | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | Calgary sold out in 4 minutes, but it took 8 minutes to complete all of those transactions. These sales were primarily internet sales. Victoria has no internet sales, so it physically cannot sell out this quickly. Vancouver will sell out very quickly. All I can say is lineup and get those tickets tomorrow morning. There will be no guestlist for any of the shows. The ticket limit is 4 tickets per person. Cash only at the record stores. thanks and good luck. - Fri, 20 Feb 2004 11:39am | ||
| Number 5 User Info... | Limit of 4 tickets at the Box Office? I've been going on the assumption that it would be 8. Anyone willing to buy an extra couple of tickets? I can send money through Paypal. - Fri, 20 Feb 2004 1:35pm | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | Here are the on sale times for Victoria: McPherson box office: 9:30am Lyle's Place: 10:00am Ditch Records: 10:30am Please line up at one of these outlets in an orderly fashion. Tickets are also available at the McPherson box office by phone at 250.386.6121. There are no internet tickets for the Victoria show. - Fri, 20 Feb 2004 1:49pm | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | Looks like I'm pulling a red eye in line tonight ! ... better get some blow . - Fri, 20 Feb 2004 2:23pm | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | Got my 4 ! - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 7:38am | ||
| Pooetry User Info... | Me too! Oh Jiminy, me and the dog are tired. - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 8:31am | ||
| Trailer Park Boy Julian User Info... | Moi aussi... after I got mine, as a good soul, I tried to tell the people desperately lined up at Lyle's (for the 100 tickets they had) that there wasn't a lineup at Ditch (for their 100 tickets). There was probably 50 people in the Lyle's line and you were allowed to buy 4. Doin' some quick math I figured there wasn't a chance in hell that anyone outside of the first 25 or so people were gettin' a ticket. Did anyone heed my advice... 2 smart guys did.... The rest just stood there like sheep.... The funniest excuse I heard for their lack of action was from some girl, who said in a whiny nasally voice, "...but Ditch opens at 11...." Actually they opened at 10:30, and they had 100 tickets that no one else was lined up for... I highly doubt she got tickets... guess math was never her strong suit in school.... sucka!! - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 9:10am | ||
| mi.coll. User Info... | i think the mac is probably sold out by now. @ 12:00 they said they had 150 left. got mine! - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 10:07am | ||
| Broccoli User Info... | They are sold out. I gots mine and some extras. E-mail me if you want to pay exorbant mobster rates for a pair - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 10:27am | ||
| KnifeGhost User Info... | mi.coll., if you're who I think you are, you were about 15 people ahead of me..... I got my four..... Some dude was going to get me an extra, but I lost track of him.... - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 12:08pm | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | Hey guys, hurray for all who got tickets! In case you're curious, i've documented it here: http://www.frankblack.net/miscfiles/pics-pixieswarmupticketsvictoria.asp - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 12:25pm | ||
| Pooetry User Info... | Hey! There's a picture of my dog and her bum! I'll have to let her know that she's famous now. - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 12:30pm | ||
| Joni User Info... | Hey, I'm in one of those pictures... Showing up early proved very smart, because by the time 9:30 rolled around that lineup was huge. To everyone else that got tickets, I'll see you at the show! - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 2:00pm | ||
| Cheeky User Info... | OMG! I was like one of the few last in line for the tickets, and the girl in front of me got the last ticket! So i'm in search of a ticket. I'm willing to pay good money for one so if anyone can sell me a ticket, please e-mail me at [email protected] - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 2:13pm | ||
| [+} User Info... | oh! i am so lucky! got mine, see you kids there. - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 2:31pm | ||
| Pooetry User Info... | I have a ticket for sale. Weeee. - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 2:59pm | ||
| Broccoli User Info... | bidding is now at $80 - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 3:00pm | ||
| Pooetry User Info... | Bing bing... Sold. Well, mine is anyways. - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 3:16pm | ||
| erg User Info... | p.s. Dave Noisy, there were two people from seattle lined up there at the front since 10 pm the previous day, then one guy around 2:00 am that i didn't know and then me around 3:00 and then more didn't show until around 6:30. get your facts straight! - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 4:03pm | ||
| mi.coll. User Info... | knifeghost- i was the guy who said "150 left." i recognize you from your bio. good to meet you. i think you were at that party the other weekend w/ the turtles when i was drunk and belligerently slagging prince etc. (it's prince for godsakes! fuck.) anyhow, good to hear you got tickets. i wonder if everyone in that line got tickets? - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 4:32pm | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | Thanks erg, i'm just going by what someone near the front when i got there told me. Anyone know anything else about these Seattle folks?? - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 4:40pm | ||
| Monkey User Info... | I was struck dumb this morning. I had no idea there are this many Pixies fans in Victoria! I was (in the words of the cashier) very very lucky to get a ticket. Thank you to the guy who let me "budge" in front of him, you're a sweet heart. Can't wait to see you all at the show. - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 6:24pm | ||
| KnifeGhost User Info... | mi.coll, all the people there when you were done would have gotten 'em.... And even though I stayed out of the fight, be it known that I'm on the Prince side.... I'm not particularly attached to Purple Rain (rather than 1999 or such), otherwise I might have joined in.... Who am I kidding? I'm a little girl..... - Sat, 21 Feb 2004 8:21pm | ||
| neocalanus User Info... | got mine as well. i was like 7th or 8th in the machperson line (the girl with the braided pigtails and the leather jacket). i was so happy when i got my tix. i guess for the bitching i have done about victoria since i moved here, i now realise the benefits of living in a small city. no on-line sales, few ticket master outlets, etc :) i think the seattle folks may have included vespa59 from the frank black forum. i had the feeling it was him. but i talked to the girl who was with him and asked her and she didn't know what i was talking about......but yeah, they drove up from seattle and got there the previous night sometime after 9 or so. thanks to all of you for keeping up updated. this is going to rock very very very hard. p.s. how fast did the van tix sellout for the van show, exactly? what a bloodbath that was. - Sun, 22 Feb 2004 6:45am | ||
| Masturbating The War God User Info... | A friend of mine got her's on the phone, only waited 10 minutes! - Sun, 22 Feb 2004 7:23am | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | Vancouver sold out in minutes, if i heard right.. I think Saskatoon is the only place thats had tickets on sale for longer than Vic. We were damn lucky to have mainly boxoffice tickets. Nothing as frustrating as everyone within 500km pinging Ticketmaster, and finding out 3mins later they're sold out. Ouch. - Sun, 22 Feb 2004 7:54am | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | And doesn't make for a very good photo opportunity. =P - Sun, 22 Feb 2004 7:56am | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I had to leave town on thursday and of course missed out. The phone-in was a lost cause for me. Anyone have a pair for sale? - Sun, 22 Feb 2004 2:13pm | ||
| Sucker User Info... | Hey, doesn't anyone read Mike Devlin's thoughtful articles and musical musings? Tickets were also on sale at the Royal, and at 9:30 Saturday there were only about 20 people in the line-up there. Half of them were buying Colin James tickets (including, I trust, Mr. Robin Adair). Although I talked the Colin James fan ahead of me into buying four. I apologize to any Pixies fan who didn't get tickets because of me. Mr. Colin James fan: "What do they sound like? What genre would you compare them to? Are they like Nirvana?" Me: "Um, maybe Nirvana crossed with R.E.M. (I couldn't think of any other bands he would know) Catchy, quirky songs with heavy guitar. Trust me, if your girlfriend likes Dido, she'll like The Pixies." I saw The Pixies twice in their hey-day. Musically they were tight, but Frank just seemed so damn bored. Kim is joy to behold though, and I'd see her in Victoria even if it was in Abbamania. Aw hell, it'll be good. Maybe they'll even play Cactus. Why does every second thing I read on The Pixies cite Doolittle as their best? Have those people never heard Surfer Rosa? Remember, children: Mike Devlin will never steer you wrong! - Sun, 22 Feb 2004 8:17pm | ||
| neocalanus User Info... | once, a long time ago, i was told i looked like kim deal. that made me very happy. then upon taking a closer look, the guy said "no actually, you don't look anything like her.". bastard. surfer rosa is definitely on equal footing with doolittle to me. bone machine has to be the greatest goddamn song of all time..... yeah. - Mon, 23 Feb 2004 5:24am | ||
| Dave Noisy User Info... | Hey guys, posted some more stuff on the site: http://www.frankblack.net/news Check out the Press Release, there's a bit of a breakdown of how quickly tickets sold out, etc.. Kinda neat they doubled the # of spaces for Saskatoon. - Mon, 23 Feb 2004 8:04am | ||
| XY-SATAN User Info... | Well I got there at 9:40 and the line up was at the fountain !! I saw a knob and thought I'd fucking wing it ..BIG mistake !! Was there about 15 and was going to stick it out till the end , that being no tickets . But then these guys came up to the end of the line and was talking to a few people up from me ( I strain to hear !) One says to them "you waiting for pixies Tickets?" Yep ! ...and then he say "hey there's no one at the royal" Oh fuck I say out loud and run to my truck with about 6 other people doing the same all meeting at the royal , 16 people in line things moved slow but I was in luck !! Now I�ve been asked by two sets of people who are real fans and each has reasons why they need the tickets, so fuck I guess I�ll be a asshole now matter who I choose ? ;) � or if I can get the right price ????��. ok I�m a fucking asshole . - Mon, 23 Feb 2004 12:35pm | ||
| malcolm SOS User Info... | As Dave Noisy already alluded to, the Saskatoon show now has a larger capacity (double it's original size) so there are quite a few tickets available for that show still. Every other show is now sold out. If anyone who didn't get tickets wants to travel and doesn't want to pay some crazy scalper price, go see the show in Saskatoon on Saturday April 17th (tickets through Ticketmaster). - Mon, 23 Feb 2004 1:30pm | ||

| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I guess I'll post the reason why I need tickets on the slim chance that someone will take pity on me. I went to Vancouver to see the Pixies in 92(I think) at The Commodore. They were just finishing up their tour with U2 and decided to do a one off show. I was stoked because I was trying to get tickets to the U2 thing just to see Pixies(I hate Bono with a passion), but there was no tickets to be had. I went to the show at the Commodore, and was turned away. I was still six months short pf my 19th birthday. Damn. My friend got in. It turned out to be their last show ever before breaking up. Now someone have pity on an old bastard who needs a pair of tickets! - Tue, 24 Feb 2004 3:06am | ||
