 |
(1971) A boring good time in a science-in-the-70’s kinda way. |

All Over It
Had anyone ever asked me I would’ve said no we’ve never played “I Am Over It” live. Boy was I ever wrong and why the fugg did we ever stop.

(2010) Wow what a mess. |
 |
(1964) Well if they’re trying to convince me that the English are the lowest form of sicko in all of history then I guess I gotta hand it to em. |

Courtney & Fathead Contribute Track to Nirvana Tribute
Hey old-timers. In celebration of the twentieth anniversary of the release of the very popular Nervermind by a band called Nirvana, Reimagine Music and producer Jim Sampas have put together a tribute featuring covers of all the tunes that made up said classic album. And this cover-album bursts into the public conciousness Tuesday, October 25th. Why, that just might be tomorrow!
Say, how does this news specifically relate to our The Dandy Warhols? Courtney Taylor-Taylor and Brent Deboer, under their Dutch Masters umbrella, were kind enough to contribute a cover of the popular parking-lot staple “Smells Like Teen Spirit” to this collection. That’s how you know it’s good!
More/better information about this release can be digested from this blog article HERE.
Good luck!

Bluefin
Here’s a random factoid: the bluefin tuna is so rare (endangered) that in Japan one fish is worth up to 50 grand in sushi. Because of this they won’t put it on the “no-catch” (endangered) list. Wtf.

The Big Oyster
First of all, wow. A history of NYC told through oysters. Talk about factoids. The first steam engine was invented in 1698. Over 100 years later (1807) Robert Fulton would create a steamboat monopoly in the Hudson Valley and be credited with inventing them. This is the factoid I just read and I’m about a third of the way through.
This writer not only does his homewerk but is also wry and clever. I’m not gonna dig around for an example so just get this book and start reading.

Zia’s Brush Prairie New Song, Show Oct 20
Zia’s country side project Brush Prairie (featuring members of SexyWaterSpiders and The Shivas) scored a sweet little deal with Amazon.com by writing a song inspired by the book they just release called Carry Yourself Back To Me by Deborah Reed. Now, to Zia and the rest of the band’s delight, there is a song and an EP of the same name for everyone to listen to and enjoy.

Dates Added: December 9, 10, 11 – Portland
Can you believe that it’s October 11th and and we haven’t even talked about CHRISTMAS yet? What a sorry state of affairs. This empire is in shambles! I was in the stadium Fred Meyer the other day and they had all jack o’lanterns and witch wigs – not at all Christmassy! HERETICS!
Anyway, with the first irreverent paragraph completed, it’s time to announce the annual Dandy Warhols Christmas shows set to take place this year over three nights in early December. On Friday, December 9th and Saturday, December 10th, The Dandy Warhols will play the new Star Theater in NW Portland. These two shows are 21 and over. On Sunday, December 11, The Dandy Warhols will play an all-ages matinee at Doug Fir on East Burnside in Portland. Joy to the freakin’ world.
Tickets for STAR THEATER (21+) go on sale to the general public Friday, October 14th at 10am HERE.
Tickets for DOUG FIR (AA) go on sale to the general public Friday, October 14th at 10am HERE.
