Kim Deal - solo set at All Tomorrow's Parties Nightmare Before Christmas

While Frank Black was busy rocking out with Dinosaur Jr on Saturday night, Kim Deal played a solo show as part of All Tomorrow's Parties Nightmare Before Christmas (curated by Shellac!) at Camber Sands Holiday Camp, UK.  According to fan reports Deal played her new single "Walking With A Killer," another new song "Are You Mine," along with well known songs including the "Breeders' classic "Cannonball," and a cover of the Chris Bell/Alex Chilton song "You & Your Sister."  After a little coaxing by fans, Deal played the Pixies' "Gigantic" - she told the crowd she didn't know the guitar part, and she forgot some of the words! She also hung out for the festival on Sunday and at one point joined in for some karaoke in one of the ATP tents! Take a look at some first hand accounts/tweets from fans who attended the show below.

Update: video added! Thanks to Svartkladd, Polar1one, and sickmon for capturing the video!
