Even I Would Never Say La-La Land

Now, I don’t normally (ever) go on the road with the band, but one thing I can tell you about The Dandy Warhols from me knowing them for 200 years is that I’m pretty sure — and mind you, I’m not there to witness what is actually transpiring — but I’m pretty sure that they are having the best time ever this weekend in L.A. Hopefully, when everyone’s hair is dry, we can get a full-ish report when they get home on Monday.

Show Added: June 4, MPP Party @ The Playboy Mansion
Hey, this is pretty cool: we’re going to be playing at the fourth annual Marijuana Policy Project party at the Playboy Mansion on June 4th.
Go ahead and read that sentence again.
This is an annual deal with these cats who do so much to help change the ridiculous policies our government has regarding marijuana, and we’re totally stoked to have been asked to take part in this year’s shindig. This year’s party is hosted by actress Fairuza Balk, and will also feature DJs from Honeypot, and our friend David J from Bauhaus/Love and Rockets. Also, there will probably be girls there, because, you know, it’s the Playboy Mansion.
Now tickets for this party are pretty spendy, but if you’ve got the dough, they are available [HERE] . If you can’t make it to the Mansion, join us the following night in Pomona at The Glass House for an old-fashioned all-ages Dandy Warhol whoop-ti-doo. Tickets are still available for Pomona [HERE] .
Hope to see you there.

The Dandy Warhols Are Sound
You know, July14th is Bastille Day. All I know about Bastille Day is: I live above a creperie, and on Bastille Day that place is bonkers busy with sexy people eating crepes on the sidewalk. So I like to think Bastille Day is about hot girls and guys eating crepes with one hand and smoking a cigarette with the other hand while drinking sooo much wine with the third hand.
So with that in mind I think it’s fitting that we have selected The Dandy Warhols Are Sound for release on July 14th, 2009.
We have been whispering to you about The Dandy Warhols Are Sound for quite some time. Long story short, or if you just got to our party, late 2001 and into 2002 we recorded an album’s worth of tracks here in Portland and took those tracks to New York’s Electric Lady Studios to mix with famed mixing engineer Russell Elavedo, and the result of those mixing sessions was The Dandy Warhols Are Sound. We absolutely loved this record. However, Capitol, our label a the time, did not. They opted out of using our preferred mixes and remixed the record on their own to create Welcome To The Monkey House, a great album that we, and most of you, also love.
Meanwhile, The Dandy Warhols Are Sound just sat there. Oh, it got played. It was a staple at Odditorium parties from the start. But there are just so many people who are at any given Odditorium party. We had always intended to release this unheard gem on our own, but life and other records and tours and babies and crepes and red wine got in the way. Now finally, after almost seven years, on July 14, 2009 The Dandy Warhols will be proud to present to you The Dandy Warhols Are Sound.
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah…
