So, I've been seeing and hearing a variety of complaints emanating from south of the 49th about the Pixies' decision to kick off their reunion, pre-Coachella mini-tour in the Great White North (specifically, Winnipeg). In our nation's defense, I just wanted to say this:
Fuck you, you buncha whiners. First, it's not like we (especially those of us stuck in areas that aren't Vancouver or Toronto) get blessed with a lot of great tours over the course of your average year. No, the best we can usually manage is Nickleback (who, to the eternal shame of those of us with taste who still call E-town home, are endlessly billed as "Alberta's own Nickleback" and sell out back-to-back dates at the old Coliseum). So when we get the rare chance to see, live and in person, a touchstone of modern rock'n'roll like the Pixies, you can bet it's appreciated. So, once again, fuck you to all you Iraq-invadin', gun-totin', 12-sandwich-eatin' motherfuckers. And also: nyah nyah.
