Pixies

On July 20, 2018, when the Pixies took the stage at the PNC Bank Arts Center, they were riding high on the release of their album *Head Carrier*, which dropped in 2016. This marked a significant moment in their career following a lengthy hiatus, as they had previously disbanded in 1993 before reuniting in 2004. The *Head Carrier* album showcased their signature blend of alternative rock and experimental sounds while introducing some inviting freshness, resonating well with both longtime fans and newcomers. The energetic set reminder of their unique sound might have been especially poignant, as this was during a tour that reaffirmed their place in the rock scene. Adding some extra flavor, Weezer was slated to play right after them, making for a night rich in nostalgia and powerful performances, combining the allure of two iconic acts that shaped ’90s music. Imagine that excitement—getting to witness this vibrant revival in action!
