Pixies

In October 2018, when the Pixies performed a live set at Zócalo in Mexico City, they were in the midst of an exciting phase in their career, having recently released their album *Head Carrier* in 2016. This marked a significant return for the band, as they were blending their classic sound with fresh influences. What's particularly captivating about this performance is the energy emanating from a massive crowd at such a historic venue—Zócalo being a symbol of cultural significance in Mexico. In their setlist, they revisit fan favorites like "Monkey Gone to Heaven" and "Gouge Away," showcasing that even after years, their ability to connect with audiences remains strong. It’s a testament to their remarkable resilience and enduring legacy in the alternative rock scene. Plus, who can forget the vibrant history behind the band? With their roots in the late '80s Boston scene, they’ve influenced countless artists, making every live performance like this one a celebration of both their past and present.
