Hey man thats wicked. I'm sure both will deliver fine music and a killlaaah show . I havent seen Built to Spill live but I'm sure its a great experience. Pixies is pixies man, goog times pretty much guaranteed 
I'm gonna try to get into a sold out Dead Can Dance concert tonight.

Just let everything flow, just flow right to the center of everything. You gotta turn off your mind and relax, and then just float downstream...

No, actually it's funny - my girlfriend Lucy's brother asked her to do him a favor and pick up passes to that show that were being held for him at some office in Times Square and when she went to pick them up the guy who had them asked, "Are you going to the show?" and had a bunch of extra tickets to give away so he gave her 2!

go see dead can dance if you can! i caught them this spring in Holland and it was amazing (although judging from screwed up energy between Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry, i don't think they'll record anything new or stay together for long).
and robot.... screw you 
i've seen the pixies a couple of times, but never built to spill - they are one of my favourites from way back...

Do you have the Built to Spill album LIVE? I think it's the best official live release I own.

I'm way too wrapped up in an immensely important Yankee game to go there in time for DFA.
