Hey. They’ve finally put up the video for “You Were The Last High” on our website. You might want to check it out, because we think it’s like nothing you have ever seen before.

Ouch! Quit twisting my arm!! Okay, you’ve seen something like it before. Sheesh!!

Hey, just a couple of notes for people with working televisions. This weekend, we will be on MTV2’s Subterranean, at the usual times that show is on.

Remember a couple of weeks ago when The Slimmer Twins (Court and Brent) were at KCRW to record some songs. Well, as it turns out, the show wasn’t taped. It was recorded via the internal memory circuits of this experimental robot. It’s true! KCRW has a fancy robot, not unlike C-3PO, who records all the programs and encodes them for use on oil rigs….five paragraph nonsensical account truncated ….and that’s how they invented tubalcane. 

AAANYway, here’s the online dealie from KCRW.

We have just been alerted to the fact that the kids at GAMMON RECORDS have a fantastic proposition for you. On November 4th, they are going to be releasing a LIMITED EDITION VINYL release of Welcome To The Monkey House to the general record buying public. With its shiny yellow vinyl and one-thousand copy press run, this record has invertors from Kenneth Lay to Martha Stewart taking notice! Should you purchase a copy of this “collector’s item” you could very well find yourself rich, rich, rich within one year! We hear that’s how Jack Benny made his fortune.

Or, you can just buy it, smoke some grass, and stare at the big ass banana on the cover, which is really what it’s all about.

The Slimmer Twins (Court and Fathead) will be performing on the legendary KCRW this Thursday morning (Sept 4) at 11am. The performance was recorded live in the studio, oh, a couple of weeks ago, so it’s still not beyond its expiration date.

Hey, we want to say thanks to everyone at college radio in the US for making Welcome To The Monkey House the NUMBER ONE RECORD at college radio this week. Hey, it’s our first number one of any kind in the US, so we’re pretty happy.

Okay, that’s all.

Can you actually believe that for hundreds of thousands of years, mankind lived quite happily without the aid of electricity. In fact, it was just about one-hundred years ago that electricity began to make it’s headway into the lives of everyday man. One-hundred years ago. Socrates didn’t have it. Shakespeare didn’t need it. Oscar Wilde got on quite well without it.

Of course, life back then was also excruciatingly BORING.

Ah ha ha! But nowadays electricity is our slave!! It goes where we tell it to go and bends to our will!! And there’s nothing it can do to stop us!! Join The Warhols tonight, 12:35 et/pt, high atop the GENERAL ELECTRIC (!!) building in New York City for NBC’s LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN and celebrate of mankind’s complete domination over electricity!!

Public Service Announcement

Hey, we should have done this before we set out on the touring season, but hey, what can you do. We wanted to let everyone know that owing to our near three hour onstage sets, we are no longer touring with support acts. So, kids, when your ticket says “An Evening with the Dandy Warhols” and starts at 9pm, you had better get there at that time an expect to rock. That is all.

xo

Hey, we’ve had a change of plans in regards to our little party up in Vancouver on the 29th. Formerly, we were going to play at the Commodore Ballroom, but then we got to thinking, what if we played an entire show in a hot air balloon!! Dig it! Flying too high with some band in the sky! “But oh! Oh”, they said, with that that scornful gaze beset upon our lofty proposal. “No traders in this rock-and-roll haberdashery shall pollute our pristine heavens! Not on your life, buster!” With downcast eyes, we wept., our dreams a pile of ash dusting our feet.

So, instead of that, we have decided to play for some kicks with REM and Wilco at Thunderbird Stadium that night.
