    The Pixies Doolittle album was my first ever CD, Sonic. I was 15 years old. Pixies (and U2) were the reason I wanted to pick up the guitar in the first place.

    No way that痴 a shame, yes your right it is the Joshua tree tour. Work got to busy today and I missed out on the live nation allocations. Another sale coming soon I think.

    Yep, pretty influential album Doolittle. It sounds lot more simplistic than it is. Their 5 chords over 4 bars or 3 chords over 4 bars so each chord falls on a different part of the drum beat each progression gets really confusing. I've written a few songs like that and tried to to do some of those Pixies songs in various bands.. almost always breaks the drummers mind.
