Pixies @ SECC, 4 Oct
Published 22 September 2009
Pixies Sell Out, again. For the first time since 2005, Charles, Kim, Joey and Dave bring their reunion schtick to Scotland, this time to celebrate the 20th anniversary of landmark album Doolittle. Like every birthday party where junior's parents don't get along, this promises to be a white-knuckle affair - but two decades of Doolittle are well worth celebrating. The quartet's second LP packs fifteen knockout punches' worth of face-melting, mind-bending power, and if Mum and Dad can channel their tension into taut, kaleidscopic brilliance onstage (as they're wont to), it should be a very happy birthday. Luckily, in the cavernous SECC, the fixed grins won't show up in the photographs.
