Public Water Public Vote Event October 7 in Portland

I have worked my tail off bringing bands together for something I feel very strongly about. In the last week I’ve organized an event that will bring together 17 bands and 3 DJs to stand united in support of democracy and our right to vote. Our right to make decisions collectively as a community and a vibrant independent city. This event will represent Portland in her truest form, and send a message to our government that the artists and citizens of Portland are willing to stand up to them when they are not serving our city and her people they way they should be. Besides that, it’s gonna be one helluva fun mini festival! Tons of music and performance artists, food carts, raffles and all kinds of creative, good spirited, family fun!

Who: This event is being organized by Zia McCabe with The Dandy Warhols in cooperation with Clean Water Portland PAC. Clean Water Portland is leading the campaign to qualify the Portland City Council’s water fluoridation decision for a public vote. The campaign is working to gather the 20,000 valid signatures needed to qualify the referendum measure that will give the public a chance to vote.

What & Why: An all day, three stage concert to promote the public’s right to vote on the controversial water fluoridation decision recently announced by the Portland City Council. The event is aimed at highlighting why the City Council’s decision, which was directly contrary to three previous public votes in Portland opposing water fluoridation, should be put to voters once again through a citizen referendum. Petition signatures will be collected and all funds raised will be donated to Clean Water Portland for their signature gathering effort.

Racer Emerson Newton-John & Support for Cancer Awareness

Here is Emerson Newton-John’s Race car. He was kind enough to show his support of The Dandys in his race in Baltimore and we think his sponsor is a worthy cause for you to look into.

Pink and Blue for Two (PB42) is a cancer awareness campaign that links the strikingly similar statistics between breast and prostate cancers, while urging couples to remind one another to visit their doctors regularly for screenings. They emphasize the importance of early detection of BOTH breast and prostate cancers equally. Pink and Blue for Two unites people everywhere in the pursuit of global breast and prostate cancer awareness, and to spread the work together in the importance of early detection.

Now if he would only let me try out his car. I love this guy.

Getcha Dandys WOW! Signal Guitar Pedal

Hey look at this. The Dandy Warhols ‘WOW Signal’ Guitar Pedal – $359.00 .

August 15th, 1977: Earth received its first message from the depths of outer space. The Big Ear radio telescope at Ohio State University picked up a strong 72-second signal from the constellation Sagittarius, detected by astronomer Jerry R. Ehman. Circling the frequency code of the signal, 6EQUJ5, on the computer printout Ehman wrote, “WOW!” causing the alien message to become forever known as “The WOW! Signal.”

Two precise values by different astronomers were given for this mysterious frequency, 1420.4556Mhz & 1420.356Mhz. Hydrogen resonates at a frequency of 1420.40575177Mhz, which is near dead center of the two values. Since hydrogen paired with oxygen creates water, the building block for life, this was a meaningful frequency for researchers. Was intelligent life out there trying to communicate with us?

The WOW! Signal was never heard again, despite several searches with a multitude of equipment. At Spaceman, we haven’t given up on extra-terrestrial communication and through much research and development with a group of our country’s greatest stargazers, we have created a way to speak back to our friends in space. Working with a group of research scientists known as The Dandy Warhols, an Alien Fuzz Communicator was born, dubbed The WOW Signal.

This device is like no other we’ve come across. The main signal manipulator utilizes a mix of modern silicon transistors, a vintage Soviet germanium transistor and a custom integrated circuit. This signal can then be modulated in a unique way by a low-frequency oscillator, which can be fine tuned to transmit the desired message to our friends in deep space.

Along with The Dandy Warhols research group, we are introducing a special First Edition of the device to coincide with the release of their new study, “This Machine.” This special edition is electroplated in raw Copper, which will oxidize, giving each enclosure a unique personality over time. It also features a vintage 1959 US Aerospace dimable indicator light, engraved knobs and includes an audio compact disc of the Warhols’ “This Machine” study. Limited to strictly 30 units, this edition is sure to be an exciting piece for the avid astronomy fan, or someone simply looking to reach out to our celestial neighbors in style. To send communications, an external instrument – guitar, bass, or other sonic producing unit – and amplification device must be utilized.

Are you ready to make contact?

Limited to strictly 30 units, the pedal will ship within 6 weeks of ordering and will come with a free copy of ‘This Machine’ featuring ‘The Wow Signal’ signed by the band. The pedals are covered by a 3 year warranty. Returns not accepted.
