hey, there’s a tiny j quote in the sept issue of spin (the one w/the pixies on the cover) … it’s in the "complete story of the pixies – in their own words." … but also the words of other people who knew them, like steve albini + kirsten hersh + tanya donnelly + j etc …

anyhow, it’s not that exciting or revealing, but this is what he said, "i’d met charles at UMass in 1984, but i only heard about the pixies in england. dinosaur jr were touring there at the time with {albini’s band} rapeman, and surfer rosa had come out and they were playing it in all the clubs. i had heard ‘gigantic’ so much later that year, at a fort apache christmas party. i actually played it with the band. charles wasn’t there, so i got recruited to play it with the other pixies. it went reasonably well.
