Pixies Hammerstein Ballroom openers ++ Bad Lieutenant tix

Bernard Sumner told Rolling Stone that his band Bad Lieutentant would be opening for the Pixies at Hammerstein Ballroom this year. That is true, but they're only opening the first one. Those with tickets to that sold out November 23rd show win the opener contest...
Pixies @ Hammerstein BallroomTickets are still available to the last show (too bad they're over $60 each). Tickets are also still on sale to the Bad Lieutenant show happening at Webster Hall on November 21st (which is three days after they play Park West in Chicago).
Nov 23 w/ Bad Lieutenant
Nov 24 w/ Jay Reatard
Nov 25 w/ Rain Machine
Nov 25 (late show) w/ no opener?
Rain Machine is currently on tour and will play a CMJ show at Bowery Ballroom.
Jay Reatard is currently looking for a new band.

live Pavement > live Pixies
2 shows in one night= both shows will suck. I'd rather set three 20s on fire right now than pay a night of lame.

the only stuff malkmus ever did that was worth a damn was with Silver Jews.
Pavement is just fucking terrible. to say they're better than Pixies is the sign of a mentally ill person.
i would rather listen to steve albini moaning in the booth as he records kim deal's vocals than anything pavement has ever done.

I was going to buy Pixies tickets, but then again for that kind of cash I should be able to afford to buy a time machine to take me back to late 80's early, early 90's when I actually would enjoy their show.

PAVEMENT is so so bad I want to cry about my lack of contribution to society. WAH WAH Pavement is bad and I'm a total douche. WAH WAH WAH Pavement sucks and I sleep in my parents' basement.
