I only saw one or two gigs in 2016 that were better than Pixies in Manchester; Saturday is gonna be fucking great don't worry. I'm absolutely buzzing for it. Yea I saw them at the Hammersmith apollo, can't remember what year , maybe 2015? And they were fucking brilliant then, I'm still well up for it, was just surprised to see a couple of negative reactions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely amazing vocals from both bands, and all 5 of them getting together to do a Lykke Li track was prob the highlight of the evening. Seeing them tonight in Brixton, very much looking forward to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilgamesh69 Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 I saw Pixies last night and David Byrne the night before. Anyone else seen either of them on this tour? What did you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 I saw them on Friday and they were fucking great. Maybe a couple of setlist quibbles, but they didn't forget to pack their pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't really know enough (or anything in the case of Staves!) about them or the catalogue to have any thoughts on the setlist tbh, which was kinda nice in a way. But yep, 5 fantastic sets of lungs on 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen them last year on the Pyramid and they smashed it (amazing vocals) so will be interesting to see the setlist comparison but i'm sure it will be new album heavy this time around which is fine by me. Looking forward to seeing them again on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big__phil Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 I'm guessing there isn't a pre-sale for these Massive Attack shows, other than o2 priority? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Incognito Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 David Byrne was fucking great again last night. A few Black Midi dates have just been announced, I'll be sure to get a Brighton ticket before they sell out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy101 Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 It's a good week for music. Superorganism were a lot better on Saturday than expected after being slated on here but it was in a room where only about 30% of the tickets had sold. Never seen an indoor gig with so much empty space. Dream Wife were alright on Monday, but were outclassed by their support Queen Z in my opinion. Also a lot of middle aged men with their hands in their pockets 'phwoaring' at the lead singer - I'm not sure if they quite got the band's vibe. Excited for Goat Girl tonight - one of my AOTY so far. Alas Childish Gambino has postponed his show on Sunday which I was looking forward to as well. Oh well spreads things out into the spring a bit at least.

Have caught them a few times including EoTR and they never disappoint, such an interesting and compelling band. I'd suggest getting tickets as soon as you can, their Electrowerkz gig sold out very quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
