Each week, the Pixies are releasing recorded live shows from their archives. This week, is their set from the Newport Folk Festival in Rhode Island on August 6th, 2005. The downloads are priced at $3.99 each, which one part of me wants to say they should be free but the other part thinks that offering high-quality downloads of shows for a low price is an incredibly smart way to grab some extra revenue. The download includes 22 songs.
