Following in the footsteps of Built to Spill and Liz Phair, who played past albums in their entirety on recent tours, Boston-bred indie fan faves the Pixies will be performing all of "Doolittle" on their upcoming European tour. Black Francis, Kim Deal, Joey Santiago and David Lovering will celebrate the 20th anniversary of their seminal CD by playing it front to back, including related B sides, during the tour that begins in Dublin in October. No word on whether the band will be playing any US dates.
Here's a little ditty from "Doolittle" called "Wave of Mutilation"
