that's my favorite radiohead song ... this guy at my local pub in dublin used to play it during his set every thursday, he tore it up ...

i want to say the porterhouse ... on parliament in temple bar, a half block from my flat ... this guy played a really sped-up acoustic guitar set every thursday, the strumming was double or triple-time for every song, but it was great ...

by the way, i know its kind of hard to have a tourist bar as your local ... but i was living in temple bar! not many other options, although this great late-night dive, isolde's tower was on the first floor of our building ...

the porterhouse isn't that bad - the Oliver St John Gogarty - now theres a tourist bar! - I actually used to work at the 'original' porterhouse in Bray

OMG...this is going to be one of those concerts that people will be talking about for years. That will be unreal! Looks like I have to take that afternoon off of work.

[Bags]

Have these shows been officially announced (i.e., do we know when tix go on sale yet?)
 
 [FYI, nothing listed on pixiesmusic.com, and that site tends to list on sale dates....]

[bearman🐻]

Nuthin' yet. Keep your eyes peeled here for info on a presale (with whining to follow).

Confirmed?  FUCK YES.  This will be my favorite show of the summer.
