Pixies Live Performance of Nimrod's Son at Eagles Ballroom, Milwaukee
In April 2011, when Pixies performed "Nimrod's Son" live at the Eagles Ballroom in Milwaukee, they were solidly in their comeback era following a significant hiatus. The band had released "Doolittle" back in 1989, an album that cemented their status as pioneers of alternative rock. However, they rekindled their musical journey with the "Indie Cindy" EP in 2014, shortly after this performance. Interestingly, by 2011, the band's lineup had remained unchanged since their initial reunion in 2004, showcasing their commitment to a sound that blends punk energy with surreal lyrics. The Milwaukee concert was part of a tour that celebrated their legacy, with fans reveling in the nostalgic yet fresh experience of their live shows. It's fascinating to see that even years later, songs like "Nimrod's Son" continue to spark excitement and emotional connection, reflecting their lasting influence on the music scene.
