Pixies Play Special Set for Chilean Miners

The Pixies played their first ever headlining show in Chile last night, and were so inspired by the rescue of the 33 trapped miners that they played a special set. The band did 33 songs in dedication to the 33 miners. It was the band's longest set ever. Pitchfork has the entire set list. The video above shows Black Francis introducing the show in Spanish. He is a fluent Spanish speaker, as anyone who had heard "Surfer Rosa" can attest to.
