The Mission, Brixton Academy, 22 Oct 11 XXV i

It had been a while since I last saw them last, but was certainly worth the wait - the 25th anniversary tour of the mission was a blinding affair ~ after the apt crowd warm up by fields of the nephilim, Hussey, Hinkler and Adams pulled off a treat with a greatest hits set. More words and pictures later...

Hinkler

Hussey: shorter, greyer hair than last time I saw The Mission...

Fields of the Nephilim, Brixton Academy, 22 Oct 11

Incredible opener for the Mission XXV concert... we almost missed the set as the queue for the show wrapped the whole of the Brixton Academy! Missed the 'Neph back in the day, so this was a great catch up for us... I don't think I've seen so much use of dry ice in a show!

Massive sound...

Pixies, London Brixton O2, 6 Oct 09

I saw some great shows during 2009, and an evening with Pixies was not to be missed. I'd last seen these guys 19 years ago to the day back in the early nineties, when they played a show at Preston Guildhall, Lancashire.

Blast from the past - the ticket from 6th October 1990 - Spookily the same date as the 2009 show...

Tonight's show was something more special, being a 20th anniversary concert for the fantastic Doolittle record. The set list comprised of all the period b-sides, the album in it's entirety and a second encore of pixies classics. Added to the flavour there was good support to - with The Big Pink.

Needless to say, but the crowd went mental when debaser kicked in!

To (cash in or...) top it off for the fans, the show was officially recorded by the band - here's a picture of the copy I bought... Note that the set list is a standard list, the final encore is included but not listed.

And here's the ticket from the show...

In all, Pixies played 4 nights at Brixton - and they all sold out! Subsequent shows in the UK have tended to stick to London and Manchester - it would be great if they'd do a full UK tour...
