The ten-date run of shows will span from Halifax on April 9, to Hamilton on April 20 and include two Massey Hall dates on April 18 and 19. The Halifax show is the Canadian kick-off to the ‘Doolittle Tour’ and will be the Pixies most extensive tour across Canada.
“We really like the idea of having a Canadian band as support on these dates,” said the Pixies’ Black Francis, “and after checking the band out, we really liked what we heard. We think they’ll be great on these dates.”
