PIXIES Performing Monkey Gone To Heaven Live at Positivus Festival
In 2017, when Pixies graced the stage at the Positivus Festival in Latvia, they were riding the wave of a remarkable comeback. Just a couple of years prior, they had released *Indie Cindy*, their first album in over two decades, which marked a significant moment in their career after their hiatus. By the time of this live recording, the band was not only revitalizing their classic sound but also introducing new material to longtime fans. Interestingly, *Monkey Gone To Heaven*, the track featured in this live performance, dates back to their iconic 1989 album, *Doolittle*. The juxtaposition of this classic with their new work highlighted how they seamlessly bridge their past and present, maintaining their influential status in the alt-rock scene. This performance at the festival exemplified the enduring connection they had with their audience, showcasing both nostalgia and excitement for what was still to come.
