Pixies

When the Pixies took to the stage at the Rodon Club on May 19, 1989, they were riding high on the waves of their groundbreaking second album, *Doolittle*, which had just dropped a month earlier in April. It’s crucial to note that *Doolittle* was a pivotal moment for the band, solidifying their unique blend of punk rock and surrealist lyrics, with tracks like “Here Comes Your Man” and “Debaser” becoming instant classics. This performance captures the band at a thrilling juncture, with an electrifying energy that can be felt in the air. An interesting tidbit? The Pixies were known for their intense, dynamic live shows, and this concert is no exception—just watch how they whip the audience into a frenzy with “Wave of Mutilation.” Their raw, stripped-back sound and quirky charm really shone through, making this recording a gem for fans and a time capsule of their blossoming legacy.
