Pixies - Caribou- 1986

[prisionnerofsociety]

Thumbs up if you're watching in 1987

[AccountabilityBurns]

i was 7 that year and dressed as a hobo

[irishsetter1972]

@AccountabilityBurns

Oh yeah? A buddy and me filled a squirt bottle full of wine, went trick or treating, and got chased off a neighbor's lot when we were about to do naughty things to a girl that wandered into our sphere of influence. CSB

[superads91]

This is Magical.

Thinking that in 1986 all that was popular was cheesy stuff like Bon Jovi, Whitney Houston, etc, and these guys came with such a different sound, so un-superfluous, so raw, so low-profile, that it must have been quite a shock and a breath of fresh air at the same time, for who'd listen them.

[beckurthurston0728]

perfect

[portiarae]

Happy Halloween 86!

[brianswathey]

Black was certainly a lot skinnier back then!

[TwitSemicolonD]

the fuck ups with the camera only made it better

[budclay77]

@TwitSemicolonD Totally!

[vinciryan]

Look at how skinny Frank was! :o

I love this! :D

[moostardo]

1.10 onward is probably my favourite bit of music ever. mad to think that it was almost 25 years ago

[zilvafish]

Pixies make me love music.

[ThePumaswar]

hijos de su puta madre...pixies es lo mas chingo de toda la historia......

[ptran001]

give me white, ground to run, and far gone, let me knife, knife me lets, i will get, what i like, HI BILL! caribouuuuuuuuuuuuu

[TheNadster2]

I was concieved during this show

[Darknads]

This was the year i was born. 1986 in the house all you bitchs you know what i mean. Park lake Homes burien white center

[WatersWork]

I was out trick-or-treating in a south Minneapolis neighboorhood while they were playing this gig.

[ReallyBloodyGood]

Looks like Frank celebrated this gig by having 10 pie and chips a day for the next two years...

[blozzom2]

this 86- way ahead of its time- doesnt sound like the 80s i grew up in- which i loved but shucks new wave and glam and guns n roses- this is grunge punk art music par excellence. Black Francis is barely 21 here. hes like some mythical creature that springs to life fully formed and ready to write the sickest dopest most timeless rock perfection ever. theres no early sound to these guys. the first and last songs were all insanely good.

[PinoyAbnoy]

i was born on 10, 11, 1986

[suggadeg]

I was 6 months old when they did this show.

[booschman]

Amazing how little the song changed from here to when they recorded it for the album.

[KzafHD]

Hi Bill

[BORNTORUNANDALIVEMAN]

during 0:54 everyone prob left the club but we alternative folk would have stayed

[PsychadelicElephant]

we alternetive ppl? love how kids label everything theese days,,

[Tsuta]

One of the things that make me appreciate the Pixies as much as I do is the fact that they look like normal human beings in a time when everyone looked like a bunch of fucking retards

[bonkersblock]

caribouuuuuuuuuuuuu!

[RichieMDer]

Charles Thompon is God...

[catgumart]

Hi Bill!

[SpamNapkin]

[renotsttam]

Awesome, this is really great. I have never seen anything this early from the Pixies. Do you have more footage?

[sal26]

these days he hangs at krispy creme until joey sends out the neext round of jelly-o's to bill.

bill is my accountant- he swears this is all true-

but these days, can you trust an accountant?

[funkymcbean]

well that's an interesitng story,

Say hello to Bill for me, as a fellow pixies fan. =]

[NinetiesYouth]

You know the Bill that Black said "Hi" to?

[pinabot]

Probably legendary Boston music figure/booker Billy Ruane.

[lonelygnome1]

great quality video considering its 22 years old.

[mxblue10]

[Wermodaz]

[LoSDepTo22]

[mrhaymack]

[brajtnerinjo]

McDonalds happened

[limson8]

[10101MB]

the early days, interesting, thanks for posting

[Coldacre]

holy crap! Frank's thin!

[karzoff]

omfg so good

[gougeaway777]

Just fucking amazing.

[adervee13]

Look at how small Frank was back then

[JuicyOrange]

Never mind. I checked out the other vids.

[JuicyOrange]

Hi Bill!

Haha, where was this?

[yamotherboy]

they sound so good so early on

[ghost037]

this is kewl. i love the pixies.

[Reint25]

Those early video's show how unique they were. Their sound came outta nothing.

[stoplying]

Thank you for filming and posting these precious gems of media from the greatest band ever.

[mike4390116]

where'd you get this gem?

[omfgmatty]

damn charles/frank/black francis was hotttttttt back then lol.

[rector]

The Pixies on Halloween. What a night!

[killerpeas]

its charles micheal kittridge the fourth and kim was married to mr. john murphy until they broke up

and also im pretty shur its they munchies that got to him haha

so im lame and know stupid useless shit whatever i still love them

[areYOUcaribou]

actually, his name is Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV. regardless, this man is awesome.

[Vinelihbe]

I never thought Francis could have been that thin. He should have laid off those cream cakes. What a great performance for '86. Clearly just starting out..

[thebandcoca]

Amazing, charles looking pretty smooth back then, and a lot thinner.

[hexrei]

Charles? You mean Frank/Francis?

[thebandcoca]

charles is his real name

[hexrei]

huh, had no idea.

[wungabunga]

His real name is something outrageous like Charles Kingsley Thompson the third or something! I think his family had a bit of money...

Kim Deal used to go by her married name - in a wierd way - mrs John Donnely or something, if memory serves me well.

They were wierd...

[namedextinction]

for the record kim deal was Mrs. John Murphy

[iohannfus]

that's right

[areYOUcaribou]

wikipedia says that he actually attended a catholic church camp in puerto rico... that explains a bit.

[naakkve10]

Frank's birth name is Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson the 4th. Kim Deal went by Mrs. John Murphy, though Tanya Donelly was a member of the Breeders (which Kim later fronted).

[naakkve10]

Ha, looks like others have already said this. Well, there it is all condensed into one post.

[wungabunga]

That's where I got Donnelly from?

How weak the human mind!

Don't get old kids....
