Pixies, Nirvana Live DVDs Set For Release

"The Nirvana concert film Live! Tonight! Sold Out! will make its DVD debut Nov. 7 via Geffen. Originally issued on VHS in 1994, the release was conceived by Kurt Cobain as a way to anthologize Nirvana's quick ascent to rock superstardom but was not completed until after his 1994 suicide.

"The bulk of the DVD features live footage from the band's 1991-92 tour in support of Nevermind, highlighted by versions of 'Breed,' 'Drain You,' 'Dive' and 'Aneurysm.' According to the label, the footage has been color-corrected and digitally remastered; previously unreleased bonus performances will be included but details have yet to be announced." [Billboard]

"One of very few bands to actually deserve the adjective “seminal”, the Pixies are due to release a live DVD of their 2004 club performance at Boston’s Paradise Rock Club. The 29 song set, entitled Club Date: Live At The Paradise In Boston was filmed in front of 200 people during their world encompassing 2004 tour. Fans will also receive a bonus DVD with the band’s first ever filmed appearance from a performance at Boston’s TT The Bears."
