On this tour, the Pixies will perform all of the songs from Doolittle and its related B-sides, "Weird at My School," "Dancing the Manta Ray," and "Bailey's Walk" among them. Doolittle, the band's third album and the first to chart on Billboard's album charts, includes classics such as "Debaser," "Wave of Mutilation," "Here Comes Your Man," "Hey," and "Gouge Away. "
"We wanted to do something special for Doolittle's 20th anniversary," said Black Francis, "and we thought his was a good opportunity to play all of the songs from that album, something we don't normally do at a regular gig. "

SLINGER!!
I cannot wait to see the PIXIES again!! They came to Austin for ACL a couple years ago and had the decency to play another show at Stubbs for all the die-hard fans who can't afford ACL yuppie prices. They were great and I know you won't be disappointed!!
Anyway, down to the reason I am writing:
I am Leitha from suicidegirls.com and a big fan of your work. I just searched the ins and outs of the internet looking for you. Haha!
I have a jar made by you, but would love a custom-blown sherlock with the SG logo, if it's possible. I read in Glass Afficianado issue 1 that SG are one of your many inspirations, so I think it might be rewarding for you too! Let me know what you think. Price is not a problem.
