Black Francis (Pixies) solo show - 1990 (FLAC)

First off, this is my first torrent, and I did not make it, I just want to put it up here because...it's not here? Yeah, something like that And I wanted to give back to this place after all the awesome shit I downloaded I downloaded it here: http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=115512 So credit goes to that guy who uploaded it there, and taped it in the first place I haven't had the time to listen to it yet, but people there said it sounded great, so I'll believe them =D So enjoy this show, and expect to hear from me again The following description is from dimeadozen: In the first weeks of 1990, Black Francis took a brief vacation from The Pixies, tossed his Telecaster and a small amp into the back of a vintage yellow Cadillac and drove around the country playing solo gigs. Here is one of them. At that time the Cat's Cradle was still on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill, a great spot that saw some fantastic gigs by Sonic Youth, Sugar, Throwing Muses, etc etc. Man those were the days. I think Michael Jordan's restaurant took over that location? Anyhoo... The Black Francis gig kind of popped up without much fanfare and was modestly attended. Lucky for you I took my Sony Walkman and a fresh TDK SA cassette. The recording obviously has its limitations, but it is still very enjoyable and is a small curious piece of American indy rock history I suppose. Before the gig, the house system was playing the White Album, so Francis gave us his own stylized version of The Beatles' "Wild Honey Pie" as a quick encore. Francis also mentions that he had tried to cover a Clash song on the night before, but wasn't too happy with the results so he was just going to stick to Pixies songs. I asked him afterward what the song was and he said it was "The Card Cheat" (from London Calling). He signed a poster for us and wrote "Free Noriega!" As a bonus you get two Pixies songs recorded at the Cat's Cradle just a few months before. Sadly that is all that remains of my tape of that gig. By that time The Pixies had really sort of outgrown the club, and the place was jam packed and super rowdy. Next time I got to see them, they were in a big ass stadium, a hundred a fifty yards away. No EQ or compression, just loaded in, balanced and normalized.

I'm gonna seed this whenever I'm online more or less
That's a lot, I have no life

Huh, I just noticed that my folder has two tracks missing, I assume it's those Pixies tracks, but I don't know
Sorry about that, it's the fault of the original uploader, but I ought to have checked

man-fish (2008-06-14)

Wait, stupid me, all the tracks are there after all
Tracks 22 and 23 are the two Pixies songs, nothing is missing from the solo show

Somebody else seed this, you can't all complain if it's going slow and it's only me seeding

You people are going to have to take care of this, I have to delete the FLAC files, it's taking up too much computer space
But I have this torrent in good-quality MP3, so download those
