Courtney’s Books: 1776

ctt-books-1776

This was the most depressing week of my life. I should’ve just dug in and got it over with in like a day. God it’s an amazing story but wow is it ever brutal.

Somehow I think it’s important to know how things really went down with the whole independence from England thing and this book seems to have the greatest number of personal letters and memoirs as well as a conservative writer who stays out of his own way and lets you just get way inside this beast.

I hugely recommend it but try to get it over with as quickly as possible cuz knowing how it ends doesn’t really help.

Last spring The Dandy Warhols kicked off the celebration of the thirteenth anniversary of their watershed album Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia by performing each of the album’s thirteen tracks in thirteen different locations around downtown Portland. These stripped down guerrilla street performances were filmed for posterity by Into The Woods and will premiere Sunday, October 27th at the Hollywood Theater in NE Portland.

The evening is set to begin with acoustic performances of Dandys tunes by friends of the band featuring:
Dave of Dave’s Killer Bread, Mike Allred of Madman Comics fame, Rick Bain of Rick Bain and the Genius Position, Nigel Ledgerwood of 1776 Jsun Adams of The Upsidedown, Megan Pickerel & Herman Jolly of Buzzyshyface, and Highway.

Followed by the video premiere
Finishing with a Q&A session with The Dandy Warhols.

Plus: do you have a favorite Dandys song? You could perform it on-stage at the event in front of Courtney and Zia and Peter and everyone. Record your cover ‘demo’ and post it on our Facebook timeline and tag it #TheDandyWarholsCoverOK. If it’s the best cover ever, we’ll put you on stage!

Some Remaining Photos From Mexico

1. I found this trip to Mexico City to be very inspiring. I noticed these projects were so clean and white punctuated with those classic festive Mexican colors. I’ve drunk rivers of tequila to those colors.

2. Modern Mexican art. Aw dontcha just love the little guy. I do.

3. This poster was in the hotel complex elevator. Ew.

Last spring The Dandy Warhols kicked off the celebration of the thirteenth anniversary of their watershed album Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia by performing each of the album’s thirteen tracks in thirteen different locations around downtown Portland. These stripped down guerrilla street performances were filmed for posterity by Into The Woods and will premiere Sunday, October 27th at the Hollywood Theater in NE Portland.

The evening is set to begin with acoustic performances of Dandys tunes by friends of the band (to be determined), followed by the video premiere, and finishing with a Q&A session with The Dandy Warhols.

Plus, one lucky fan will have an opportunity to perform a Dandys cover live on-stage. Fans can record their most interesting Dandys cover – from 1995’s Dandys Rule OK all the way through to 2012’s This Machine. To enter, post your cover song link on the Dandys Facebook timeline (at ) with the hashtag #TheDandyWarholsCoverOK. Anyone can enter, but to win one must attend the show at Hollywood Theater October 27th. Because the prize is playing the song, duh, if you’re not there how can you even win?

Tickets for the show are $12 and are available at the door. This event is all-ages.

Courtney Movie Reviews: Troy & More

Downton

Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey, Sherlock

 

Since I don’t see them til they’ve been going for years I love this new trend in cinema where they make like an 80 hour movie and every 50 minutes they give you the option to stop.

 

Troy (2004)

Troy

(2004)

Ajax doesn’t die in the Iliad nor was he a giant biker but besides that its pretty awesome.
