PIXIES Yesterday, Tomorrow, Today

Last week I went to see the Pixies live at alcatraz in Milan and it was a nice revival although Pixies without Kim Deal its like cheese cake with no cheese. The sound was solid. Crowd was a mixture of old and new fans but the general feeling was "How much did I love the Pioneers of indie/post/grunge rock?"Too much indeed. Francis Black played with no interruption. No hello, No good bye. Nothing. Just the sound of Pixies. Thanks for that!

a negative note: the recent EP is not so good..

"In Heaven Everything is Fine" Pixies Live in Milan

Artissima is Arredatissima

Artissima 2013 is a well constructed Fair and OneTorino is a very welcomed surprise. Sarah Cosulich Canarutto has done a very good job. Having said that we share the feeling that today's Contemporary Art fairs seem more likely to accomodate furniture needs rather then intellectual anxiety.
If you have a nice house, villa or flat come to Frieze, Artissima or Miami and fulfill your desire!

By the way Club to Club is growing into one of the most prominent European electronic music festivals...
