I was a huge pixies fan and after a few years somehow stumbled upon a live video and was. shocked. joy gone, could not listen to the band anymore. in my mind they where so immensely cool, young and obviously hyper attractive. but seeing those old bald men kinda ruined the music.

also, where is my mind is really pointless, what is it even about? but I only care about it since I know how they look. that's bad huh.

What? I mean, they were young when they did all the good stuff. Black Francis was 14 when he wrote Hear Comes Your Man. There is a Brixton Academy video from 1991 on YouTube and two or three 1989 shows too. Forget about the newer shows! I saw them live in 2004 and 2005 and they were still great, but those earlier shows are where it's at.
