(1972) With the assistance of the fast forward button this became quite an interesting short film. |

(1987) SECOND REVIEW : I don’t just love this movie I want to BE this movie so from now on can everyone just call me Courtney “Withnail and I” Taylor-Taylor or something? |

I shouldn’t have to tell you that Love and Rockets is pretty much everyone’s favorite band around here. The Dandys have a special relationship with David, Danny, and Kevin going back to ’96 when the Dandys toured with the goth/psychedelic rockers and have remained close. So when they called up and asked if the Dandys wanted to contribute to a Love and Rockets tribute album the answer was a resounding “hell yeah.”
So this record is out now – New Tales To Tell – A Tribute to Love and Rockets – featuring the Dandys’ cover of “Inside the Outside” along with a whole slew of super cool covers by a whole slew of super cool cats. Look for it in stores now or download from the usual suspects like iTunes.

(1983) Rodney was totally hysterical back in the day but for any number of reasons this movie totally isn’t. |

(2007) I couldn’t help it, I watched it three times in one week and laughed til I cried every time. |

Well, here we go. Take a look at the awesome new video for “And Then I Dreamt of Yes”, directed by Mark Helfrich.

Zia: We as a band have a soft spot for old, vintagy, trippy stuff so Mark getting inspiration from The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari fit perfectly with our aesthetic. We had no problem coming up with our individual ‘looks’ for this video and filming with water pouring over us and having our eyes closed through entire shots was an interesting challenge. Mark and his crew did a fantastic job and any input we had during the final editing was minimal. I’m so glad such a beautiful piece of film was made for my favorite song on the album.
A big thank you to IFC for hosting the video.

(2008) Directed by Steven Soderbergh I really wanted to know the story of Che but I couldn’t even make it thirty minutes into this lo budget thing which looks and feels like it’s only “pretty good” for a new style Mexican soap opera. |

Surprisingly quick paced for a movie from 1940 and cutting edge subject matter for its time.
Plus I just can’t get tired of having Katharine Hepburn (playing a stunning socialite about to
remarry when hijinks ensue) on my screen.
