I was at this one, more from this year in my gigography for 2025. I have seen Pixies probably 3 times; Brixton Academy (2004), Brixton Academy (2004), and Brixton Academy (2025), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up. Part of every gig I went to from 1987 to 2024. It's a natural step from my Best gigs of all time weblog post. Yeah I know it's very nerdy, let's let that go though, I'm having fun reminiscing about these things.
