Photos: Scandalous Xiu Xiu Tour Polaroids
As Xiu Xiu forge ahead with what has certainly been one of the more-thoroughly- documented indie tours in recent memory (remaining dates below), road manager David Horvitz has happily offered Pitchfork a batch of scandalous Xiu tour Polaroids, hell bent on corrupting the minds of our readership.
Well, okay-- one semi-scandalous pic (the line about rocking out with one's cock out comes to mind), a little knife play, a little blood, and a bunch of family-friendly vacation shots. As you may recall, Horvitz invited fans to drop off film at their local Xiu gig, promising to mail participants unique photos of Xiu gang hilarity on the road.
Best of all, it's not too late to get your own prized piece of original photographic Xiu tour memorabilia-- if you're lucky, it just might be NSFW. Buy ye some film (Polaroid 600, plz) and get ye to a Xiu show now.
