The Dandy Warhols are #feelinthebern so we decided to “Put A Shirt On It.”
Support your favorite rockers and your favorite presidential candidate at the same time with this limited edition T shirt. TeeSpring has done a limited edition run of Dandys for Bernie 2016 shirts available to you for 6 DAYS ONLY!
A portion of the proceeds goes directly to the Bernie campaign.
Thanks to KORG for express shipping the new KS100 Keytar to me just in time for my performance of Queen’s- “I Want To Break Free” at Splendour in the Grass!
Peter G. Holmström knows how much Zia’s non profit Sun Cedar means to her, so he made her a gift of these stenciled trees to offer fans on her birthday. (Thanks Pete.)
Zia’s one birthday day request is that everyone who can, joins her Kickstarter campaign for Sun Cedar. Sun Cedar manufactures hand made, all-natural aromatic ornaments and gifts in a green shop staffed by ex-offenders and the homeless.
Zia believes whole heartedly in this project and would like for you to do the same. Hurry, it’s a very limited supply.
The Dandy Warhols are happy to support Sun Cedar, a green company that employs folks from our at risk population. Our own Zia McCabe is serving on the board of this great non-profit and we couldn’t be more proud. To learn more about Sun Cedar and to join in, please see their Kickstarter campaign.
Oh hi. Have we not posted anything on our old dumb website this year at all? Well sorry!
Wanted to let you know that Zia will be defending her crown Schoolhouse Supplies 15th Annual Celebrity Spelling Bee January 29th in Portland. McCabe’s won the last two and is gunning for the Three-peat. Will she prove v-i-c-t-o-r-i-o-u-s? I don’t know, what’s that spell?
The Celebrity Spelling Bee is our annual fundraiser where our community of supporters come together to celebrate the success of Schoolhouse Supplies, and to honor those who helped make it happen.
This evening of intelligent fun, held on Thursday, January 29th, 2015 (5:00-9:00 pm) at the Portland Art Museum, brings together past Spelling Bee winners like 2014 champion, Zia McCabe, along with new challengers all vying for the title of Portland’s Spelling Champion.
‘Tis the season for giving. Every year we donate $1 from the sale of each ticket of our holiday show to a different deserving recipient. This year we’ve selected Ethos Music Center. Ethos is dedicated to the promotion of music and music-based education for youth in underserved communities. In a time when music/arts programs are mostly a memory in public schools, organizations like this are crucial to exposing and educating America’s youth.
We’re also honored to have Etho’s band, Death By Thumb perform at this year’s concert at Crystal Ballroom. Sat, Dec 20th.
If you’d like to donate further to Ethos please visit their website or booth at the event.
Frustratingly, measures to require GMO labeling narrowly failed in California and Washington. If Oregon fails we may never build up enough steam to get GMOs labeled in the United States, like 64 other countries already require.
This isn’t just an issue for Oregon, national support is needed! We’ve made doing your part simple. Just download our version of OHIO and $0.92 will go to the Yes On Measure 92 Campaign (you can also donate more with all extra going directly to the campaign). Make Oregon the first state to require GMO labeling and give other states a chance to follow suit.
Courtney & I will be performing this song at a local benefit this Sunday, October 12th. If the footage turns out we’ll share it with you as part of our victory celebration on Nov 4th!
You are one click away from making a difference. We are offering a download of The Dandys’ cover of ‘OHIO’ for $1.92 — $0.92 of which goes straight to funding Yes on Measure 92 via the Oregon Right To Know campaign. How cute.
This all ties into an upcoming benefit I’m co-organizing called Portland Sings Out! at Star Theater in NW Portland Sunday, October 12th, where Courtney will be performing an acoustic rendition of OHIO. Ah, it all makes sense now!
Now we have three easy ways to be a part of positive change right this minute:
No, no, Portland’s water is still safe from fluoridation, thank goodness. This time the problem is with GMOs. The issue isn’t whether or not GMOs are good or bad, it’s about labeling. We consumers deserve the right to know exactly what goes in our food. This is a grassroots campaign going up against some of the biggest food and chemical corporations in America. (You know, those bullies with the nearly unlimited funds and power.) By voting YES on Measure 92, you can make sure that food sold in the state of Oregon is required to list all GMO ingredients on its packaging. Sixty-four other countries have already provided this for their citizens. Let’s help Oregon become the first state in the USA to make GMO labeling mandatory. Together we can help lead the rest of America in the effort to make corporations honest about what they put in our food.
This all ties into an upcoming benefit I’m co-organizing called Portland Sings Out! at Star Theater on October 12th where Courtney Taylor-Taylor will be performing an acoustic rendition of CSNY’s “OHIO”.
Here are two easy ways to be a part of positive change right this minute:
