The Pixies Honor Freed Chilean Miners With A Marathon Concert

As the last of the Chilean miners and their rescuers safely emerged from a Copiapo mine on Wednesday night, after a harrowing 69-day ordeal spent 2000 feet underground, the Pixies, playing Santiago's Teatro La Cupula, devoted their 33-song set to the 33 miners. It was the longest set they've ever played as a band.
