The Pixies – Olympia 1st October

pixiesI went to see the Pixies in dublin on thursday the 1st of october with my sister whos a huge fan. I never listened to them once since that day on the bus to dublin where i listened to the “Doolittle” album. And at first play i thought hmm its ok but.. So we got into dublin early and into the Oylmpia at about 8.10 where the support act was some guy singing and drumming loudly.

The atmosphere was electric and there were people there in their 30’s and up. So into the bar for a quick few pints of bulmers in a plastic cup at €5.50 which is a bit expensive but its a concert so what the hell. The bulmers must have been wattered down cause i was drinking them dam fast. So in we went took our seats and the place was packed and sold-out.  This was the second night the Pixies were playing, they were doing three nights.

What followed was something magical and something ill never see again a legendary band playing great songs. Theres a great selection of videos on youtube from the gig so heres the awesomeness you missed.
