5.0 out of 5 stars Acoustic is good! Jan 26 2007
By Sam Doucette
The Pixies are growing old... fortunatly they age so very well!

Indeed, doing an acoustic show is often a sign that a band is old. The wrinkles on Kim Deal's always so charming smile can also be a sign.

This set is perfect. I didnt notice any classic missing and they even play acoustic versions of songs that you wouldn't have tought could be arranged that way, like Crackity Jones.

I strongly suggest this DVD if you have been a Pixies fan back in the 90's or even 80's. Nostalgia and fun garantee!

5.0 out of 5 stars Intimate Pixies Aug 25 2006
By Phil NJ - Published on Amazon.com
Really good video. Most of the songs translate to acoustic really well. Compared to "Pixies Sell-out", this has quite a very different, more subtle dynamic. Francis's weird, edgy lyrics become much clearer. A good thing! Stand-outs: "Mr. Grieves", "Wave of Mutilation", "Gauge Away", "Hey" and "Debaser"...from the BTS docu. Excellent behind-the-scenes bonus footage. You get an intimate view of the band working out the new arrangements.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not tame. Aug 28 2006
By Jason Steiner - Published on Amazon.com
From the behind-the-scenes practice and dress rehersal on this DVD, it's apparent that the Pixies were not particularly comfortable performing an acoustic set. They had no reason to be nervous. It takes a lot more than a distortion pedal to make a Pixies song a Pixies song, and removing it just brings those signature elements to the surface. In particular, Joey's expressive guitar playing. Sounds I once assumed to be synthetic are now obviously the result of his gonzo style. But everyone contributes, and the clean acoustic arrangements make the sheer energy and catchiness of many Pixies songs stand out. How can you not sing along to "Hey" or "Gigantic"?

Pixies fans will buy this DVD regardless, but I think it may make a great introduction for new listeners. If you're just curious about the Pixies, give it a listen. Sing along a little. You'll like it.
