On tour are Black Francis, Kim Deal, Joey Santiago and David Lovering. Fans can expect the Pixies to play a wide selection of their most beloved songs from the band’s third album, “Doolittle,” including “Weird at My School,” “Dancing the Manta Ray” and “Bailey’s Walk.” The production is said to be just as wild as the group’s songs, with “four huge, undulating, eyeball-like spheres flown just below the lighting rig” and a pretty gnarly lighting show.

Filmmakers Judy Jacobs, Tom Winkler, Brent Felix and Melinda Tupling were brought on board to create 11 films especially for the production. The films will be shown on a massive backdrop.

 

Tickets are $46 and $56 and are available by calling 345-0606, visiting www.ticketomaha.com or at the Ticket Omaha box office near 13th and Douglas Streets.
