Our dear friends at SPIN have written some nice words about us over at their site. Please take some time to go read what they had to say.

If you find yourself in Los Angeles tonight, Zia will be DJing at Spaceland with bands Magic Mirror, Lower Heaven, Line and Circle, with our old friend Miranda Lee Richards. Doors at nine, twenty-one and over only, please.

And new record is out. Get …Earth To The Dandy Warhols… now at iTunes with a couple of bonus tracks and digi-booklet.

Nice One.

Zia McCabe hates to stop spinning the records. She detests it! She’s at Spaceland in L-A on Thursday. We told you that already. After that, McCabe is back in dreary Portland on Saturday for Action Sport Tour Portland Afterparty, turning that frown upsidedown with DJ Dave Allen from Gang of Four and others.

Come on, give a damn.

This Sat, August 23
@ THE 2410

Well la-di-da, …Earth To The Dandy Warhols… on the iTunes. People ask — they demand to know — does the album title necessitate the ellipses? We say yes. You need the ellipses for to cushion you from a concussion of rock and roll. You wouldn’t sleep on gravel, would you? No, you would take your sweater off and lay that on the ground first.

Oh yes. Two bonus tracks are included with the iTunes purchass of …Earth To The Dandy Warhols…. A cover of “Sister Golden Hair”, and a version of “Welcome to the Third World” en francais. You also get a “digital booklet” for the record, which saves everyone on costly silver ink.

If you didn’t, do it.

The video for “Last of the Outlaw Truckers” is up exclusively on MySpace. Check that out HERE.

Also, our record is out tomorrow. I know, already?

There was blood everywhere. Smeared across my cheeks, it made me looked painted as some Bowery whore turn century, the last. You know, when ‘Bowery’ was a word not spent in mixed company. My hand, it turned out, wasn’t much of a bandage, at least not as much as I had been led to believe form old World War II movies. I’m not sure if it can be considered a gush; the tide wouldn’t take anyone along with its current. But, yeah, it was pretty bad. I only had four hours, I estimated. I mean, I was no doctor, but it couldn’t be too much longer.

Which kind of made it all the more surprising that, what with my fuente de la sangre, I chose to spend my last remaining minutes with my dying flesh on this planet Earth at Spaceland. Yes, instead of seeking the assistance of a hospital. Zia McCabe was DJing, and from what I heard, she had the healing power of DUB. Zia did get grossed out when I hugged her. I mean, who wouldn’t? My guts had just been eaten out by a dog while trying to steal a car. That’s my life!

I just saw some dude spray painting the lawn and sidewalk — off Lovejoy, under the 405 — white. The guy was obviously on official business, because he was wearing Jerry Seinfeld pants. When I spray paint things like that, it’s called “vandalizing”. (Art is what they call it in the year 2020 — you’ll see, Tom Potter.) However, I don’t ever recall spray painting actual living, breathing grass. Dumb.

So, our city is so stupid sometimes. Get it? (Don’t move here.) Where do we like to get away to? Our home away from home, our not so secret love, Australia. Damn straight.

28 Oct 2008 – Metro City – Perth, WA
