Pixies

There's a local tribute band named the Shitty Pixies—and some purist Pixies fans might argue that moniker would suit Black Francis's crew since it lost key member Kim Deal this year (the Muffs' bassist/singer Kim Shattuck has stepped in). However, fresh material is in the works, and tonight you'll surely hear from the Pixies' brand-new disc, EP-1, as well as ye olde classics. Support at this run of shows comes from Reignwolf (Sept 17, 18), Meg Myers (Sept 19) and Parquet Courts (Sept 20).
