Ghosts of April Fools Past
There was this April Fools Popeye cartoon that I couldn’t find on YouTube. (And by couldn’t find I mean I didn’t actually look.) This was just like a normal Popeye cartoon – Popeye and Bluto are beating the garbage out of each other for no reason – except after Bluto dive bombs Popeye with a Spitfire or Popeye drops the Chrysler Building on Bluto, they shout out “April Fools!” Yeah, that makes it all better. Oh, it’s all in good fun.
Anyway, I could not come up with a good enough prank (LAZY) to pull on youse guys, so here’s one of those videos we made while recording The Dandy Warhols Are Sound in 2002, which is as pranky like as we can get around here.

Friday News Dump For 03/12/10
So I’m thinking about getting a whippet. But my landlord just said I couldn’t have pets. The nerve! (Like I didn’t know already.) Should I just move or what? Keep in mind that I have lived int his apartment for six years and before that Fathead lived here for six years. It’s obviously the best apartment ten feet from an interstate in the WORLD. Sure, it will never survive even the smallest of earthquakes, it really feels like home. But dogs are pretty funny.
ITEM: When I was talking about working on a new record, I did not mean the Capitol Records retrospective slated for release in a few months. But yeah, that’s coming. Two new Dandys song? Never before seen photographs? Full greyscale packaging? What? Want a preview of it?
Wait, I think that might be one of those shirts you get at Urban Outfitters. Guys, the Capitol logo is a classic. It’s the greatest logo in all of music. Yes, even better than that dog staring into an old-timey phonograph. That dog died 100 years ago, it’s depressing.
—
ITEM: Fathead’s on Twitter now. You can follow him at @fatheaddeboer. Court still tweets at @courtneyTaylor2, and Lee helms the band Twitter at @TheDandyWarhols. I also just spend like an hour setting up a Beat The World Twitter @BeatTheWorldRec. What’s the deal with this Fail Whale? Why is he so smug?
(I had the idea today that if Dorothy Parker TWEETED her classic line, “boys don’t make passes at girls who wear glasses”, that 90% of her responses would not only get the joke, but most of those would angrily try to prove her wrong. “Actually I take great offense to this statement. I wear glasses and I sleep with ten different guys a week.” Crumbs.)

ITEM: Short notice notice – DJRescue (ZIA!) has got her thing going at Jinx (232 NW 12) this afternoon, 4-7. I challenge you to stop by, you peoples at Weiden + Kennedy, you peoples at Powells, you people at other places working within a ten block radius.

Well, that’s it. There were a couple of real news items in there, somewhere.

Changes Coming In Digital Media Delivery
Hey, you. Our digital partner, Topspin Media, is currently rolling out a lot of really cool changes in the way we can bring our music to you. In order to take advantage of what Topspin now has to offer, and pass those new fun things on to you, all of the old links to buy our digital music are coming down like the Berlin Wall that one time. But don’t fret, kid. You will be able to buy direct from us again very soon. Like “before you are ready for it” soon. Like when your mom goes to the store and you think you have enough time to try one some of her make-up but she comes back early and you look like Liz Taylor in that one Warhol print. Yes, that fast.
Also, we are taking this opportunity to totally redo our merch store. We’re working on some big stuff to make for a better online shopping experience. This, too, is coming very soon.
I guess that’s it. As always, thanks for your support.

CTT: Firefly

(2002 & 2005) Firefly: Ok, this show is one of my favorite things ever… but that said, I just wanna warn you that to truly get the epic experience out of it that we all so desperately desire, you’ll have to earn it by patiently cringing through some good size chunks of cheese. Serenity: Surprisingly, most of this movie comes across like a campy send-up of the show, but once again if you just hang in there… |

What You Missed, First Week Of February 2010
So I didn’t think about missing three days of actual work when my MacBook was out sick this week. No, I only really thought about what if the Apple people were to find my cache of Johnny Weir fan fiction. But now it’s Friday, my MacBook is home, and it’s time to catch up on things you have missed.
ITEM: Beat The World has a winner in the Guild Guitar contest, and that winner is Pat, from Huntsville, Alabama. Pat wins the Guild GAD-JF3012, like the one Pete played in the “Dreamt of Yes” video. Ten other winners received digital downloads. Which are great, because the computer plays them for you. Thanks to Guild Guitar, Ryan at Beat The World, and our guitar tech Elliott for all the back and forth.
ITEM: Last night I had a dream that Logan Lynn and I were BEST FRIENDS! It was pretty fun. Coincidentally, did I tell you that Logan has covered the Dandys’ 2003 hit “The Last High”? Say what? Yeah, it’s pretty great. You can buy the single at at loganlynnmusic.com.
ITEM: Courtney has a new review of Educating Rita, as well as a couple more flicks, on his movie review page.
ITEM: From the burying the lede department: Yes. We are recording a new record right now.
Good-bye!

Notes for Friday Jan 22
Hey, our site is a little different again. Oh, you noticed? I’m glad. I will be fiddling with the style over the weekend, so if things go crazy, it’s just me messing things up, as usual.
If you’re in Portland this weekend, please go see our friend Logan Lynn at Berbati’s. Five bucks and the show starts at 9:30.
If you have not donated to help the cause in Haiti, please consider donating to the Red Cross at your neighborhood Starbucks, or check out http://www.charitywatch.org.

Donate To The Haiti Earthquake Relief Effort
If you have not donated to help the cause in Haiti, you can do so by going to you local Starbucks across the U.S. and Canada. The Starbucks Foundation will join your support by donating one million dollars (U.S.) to the American Red Cross in support of this effort.
UPDATE:
Hey all
Lee here, Dandy’s Manager. Our booking agents organized this Starbucks Haiti Relief donation drive with proceeds to The Red Cross. There are many other charities doing good work as well if you want to donate but don’t have a Starbucks near you or for any reason have political concerns in donating to The Red Cross. For more info on charities that might better appeal to your ability to donate please check out http://www.charitywatch.org/
