Pixies

The Pixies, an iconic band that helped shape the alt-rock scene, had a fascinating journey leading up to the live recording of “Vamos” on December 8, 2009, at the Echoplex in Los Angeles. By this time, they had already embarked on an impressive reunion tour, which had started in 2004. Leading up to the concert, they had released their long-awaited album "Doolittle" in 1989, and after a prolonged hiatus, they dropped "Indie Cindy" in 2014, making the live performance part of a celebrated comeback phase. What’s particularly interesting is that this concert was part of the Winston Calling Benefit Concert, showcasing not just their music, but their commitment to community causes. Featuring Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers truly added a thrilling element to the performance, blending their distinctive punk vibe with Flea's energetic style. This collaboration marked a significant moment in their live shows, reflecting both their evolution and enduring relevancy in the rock landscape. How cool is it to see such legends come together for a great cause?
