Uh... yeah. I've left this town. A quarter of the year, I'm elsewhere.
If I sound like a music journalist, it's only because we're on a music message board and I'm actually USUALLY informed about shit and don't just ramble off on any one subject until I've actually sat and thought about it... I'm hardly a critic, because I couldn't give a fuck less what people listen to, but I definitely know what I'm talking about. Usually. Not sure what's wrong with that, unless it just intimidates people or something. It certainly doesn't bother most people.
Back to my original point: the Pixies have been namedropped by Nirvana and covered by Weezer.. not even counting anything else, right there that's MILLIONS of people who have heard of the Pixies if not heard them. Not to mention the MILLIONS of different people who have seen the closing credits of Fight Club.
To say "the pixies, they ain't well known I only know 3 people dat know 'em!" (paraphrased, of course) is just ridiculous. I'm simply pointing that out. But I'm sure he was being honest in his reply, so the discovery of a town where not a single person has even heard of the Pixies has blown my mind a bit. They're a pretty huge band!!!
