Pictures of You
The Dandys’ cover of the Cure’s “Primary” is available for free along with this week’s NME special tribute to The Cure, pictured with me on the cover looking all bashful. (Oh, that’s Robert Smith.) “Pictures of You, A Tribute to Godlike Geniuses of the Cure.” Get it at your local, what do they call ’em over there, news agents?
If you can’t pic up the mag, our song is still available on the double length Cure tribute Perfect As Cats, available in stores and on iTunes.
UPDATE: Yes, Lee, thanks. This special edition of NME drops in your lap Feb 28th.
Also, this message comes from Robert Smith:
“I LOVE THE DANDY WARHOLS AND I LOVE THIS PRIMARY COVER!”

They Don’t Make ‘Em Like The Used To: Original
This is the original Autotune® sound, by the way. I was looking for a good example before but just couldn’t think of nor find one.
Today this showed up on my “you might like” YouTube box. Wtf? Um….okay.
Well here it is: the sound that threatened some of mankind not much more than a couple weeks ago and prolly still threatens someone today.< So I still can't think of a song that I've ever loved which employs this effect. I used it on our version of PRIMARY (The Cure) but ended up taking it off. Maybe I'll post a mix of it back later. Actually I took it off because it's the first time I've liked the way my voice sounds singing "yelliie guy" style. Mr Yellsworth. Yells Yellington. It doesn't really sound like me. I love that.

They Don’t Make ‘Em Like The Used To: Chet Baker
Ladies and boys hold onto your panties I’m on a Chet Baker thing.
[pro-player type=”MOV” width=”400″ height=”300″]https://www.dandywarhols.com/video/ctt-chet-baker.mov[/pro-player]
I’ve got a record called The Best of Chet Baker Plays. Well I believe it. One of the best records I own. It’s all hits pretty much. What a guy.
He lived in Portland for a while. Guess he liked to shoot dope and be left alone. Played gigs with the local cats out on NE Vancouver. He left his saxaphone with the only white jazz cat, Billy Hood. Oh, actually I guess it was the pawn shop ticket for the sax. Not the sax itself. Apparently his daughter or grandkid still has it.
(If anyone can verify that story, would be nice to know. Thanks.)
Portland has a great dark history. We had the book Portland Confidential while we recorded Oddy or Warlords. It’s all about the creepy old place.

Courtney’s One Sentence Movie Reviews: Old Joy and A Star is Born
Old Joy (2006) – This is some of the best writing ever and once Will Oldham comes in, this movie explodes out of it’s “hard to watch local/indie” first few minutes.
A Star Is Born (1976 remake) – I laughed a couple times what with the kitch and all but mostly you just almost hurl.

The Bandit
“Anything big and dead serious is perfect for comedy. The bigger the target and the more it takes itself seriously the better.” – Bill Coker (retired director)
My neighbor was the 1st asst director on the Smokey and the Bandit movies and we were discussing the personal nature of what people think is brilliant comedy when that gem came out of his mouth.

Denver
Well I tried to think of a great Autotuned® song but I can’t.
Anyhoo I’ve been in Denver for a few days and even went skiing for a half day. Nice. Jeez I’m sore. Well Denver was apparently just recently rated the most liveable city in America by someone who knows. Puh leeez. There’s a mall for every neighborhood and they’ve also distributed real big city ghettos so evenly that wheather you’re in a $300,000 or three million dollar neighborhood, you’re always three to eight blocks away from an actual ChicagoDetroitWashingtonDC styley ghetto.
Here’s the only photo I took:

Changes To DandyWarhols.com
Pay no attention to the man behind the screen.
Things are acting a little different around here. A new site is being set up, so you will bear with us as things are getting sorted. A beefier Dandy Warhols dot com is in the pot… so chunky you can eat it with a fork.
Soon, pet.
