CTT Tour Pics: Paris to Lucerne

Alright, I really can’t  find words to describe how completely badass our show was last night in Paris.  Um….nope.  Damn.  One of the best, if not the best ever.  Damn.


Well here’s beautiful Lucerne today (Switzerland) which is also a brand of milk that I grew up with.  How much do ya wanna bet that I’m gonna find some absolutely wicked fondue here tonight.

CTT Tour Pics: Santander

SATURDAY 24 JULY – SANTANDER

My first photo of the tour.  Santander, Spain.

First show of the tour.

Here’s the beach (just to the right of the stage) where  I was easily the pastiest white guy they saw all day.

26 JULY – PARIS

Okay we’re in Paris now.

Taylor-Taylor Mixed Wolfmen Single Released Today

The CTT mixed single by The Wolfmen, “July 20”, is also out today.  Here is a little interview on the Wolfmen site with Court about working with the Wolfment, interior spaces, and birthdays.

What vibe were after with the July 20 remixes – one with Jacob and the other with Jeremy – were there any influences or source material you used for reference?
With Jake we referenced “Never Met a Girl Like You Before” by that cat from Orange Juice. With Jeremy we referenced that Stranglers tune with the harpsichord (Golden Brown) that got so big again a few years back. Ultimately though, once ya get into a mix it doesn’t really help listening to anything else. We only listen for fun at the beginning. Once you start a mix in earnest you’re on your own.

Will you be producing/remixing any other Wolfmen tunes
Oh I’m sure I probably will. They know they can count on me and my guys to churn out cool stuff and since I don’t have to pay for studio time at the Odditorium it saves them a lot of heartache as well as money.

July 20 is a birthday shared by you and Chris – are you typical Cancerians
Yeah I think we are. I know that I am fer sure. Very homebody. I’m obsessive about my interiors and they are not only spectacular but ergonomically borderline genius. They have to be, what with me having such a low tolerance for wasted time/space/energy. Another cliché’ is being hard, cold and business-like on the outside but a Mr. Snugglycuddlyman on the inside. That pretty much describes my days to a T.

What’s been your wildest or most memorable birthday
Oh I really think that more amazing than all the sex drugs rock n roll birthdays that I can’t quite remember was the fifty foot slip-n-slide on the hill behind my house for my birthday last year. All the booze and chemicals and partying in the world, all the drunk driving and sad lonely endings only happened because there wasn’t a fifty footer in the back yard.

Are there any plans for a Dandy Wolfmen team-up? What cover would you use as an ice-breaker at a both band-jam
An icebreaker jam has to just sort of “happen” but if I were to script it into the
movie I’d have it be “Suffragette City”(sp) or “Bela Lugosi’s Dead”.

Have you managed to see any gems from Marco’s legendary guitar collection.
Nope. Not seen Marco’s guitars.

Go to the Wolfmen site to hear these mixes of “July 20” and  buy them.

They Don’t Make Em Like They Used To: Edith Piaf

“L’accordeoniste”

For years I have wondered what the hell she could be singing about in this song.  This chorus is so grand and sweeping that I of course hoped the lyrics and subject matter lived up to the sweeping grandeur of the melody.  Well guess what…. holy shit.

Here is the older Edith singing it with English translation:

Here’s a great shot of her in her younger grace and beauty:

This chick sings like the ultimate heavyweight champ of the world.  Damn.

Interview: “Fine and Dandy”

From an interview CTT submitted to the Daily Telegraph in Sydney:

1. DOWN UNDER DRUMMER
Dandy Warhols drummer Brent DeBoer has just moved to Melbourne, from where his wife hails.  He got married out in the billabongs,” frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor says. We love Australia.  We’re a guitar band, it’s a guitar country.  Australia didn’t derail on the girl band/boy band/rap-rock nightmare of the late ’90s.”
2. INDIE MOOD
The next Dandy Warhols album won’t be on their own label again. “We’re terrible at business,” Taylor-Taylor admits. “Terrible. We don’t know what we’re doing. It’s like trying to have children run a household. We need to hook up with some indie label. The new stuff is sounding good. It’s a little less dirty so far.”
3. SINGLE MINDED
Their old label has released a new compilation Best of the Capitol Years 1995-2007 – with Dandy hits Bohemian Like You, We Used to Be Friends and Not If You Were the Last Junkie on Earth. “It’s funny to have all the big hits, the marginal hits and the cult hits all together on one album. It makes good sense.”
4. A WALK IN THE PARK
They’ll play the hits during their Parklife festival set. “We love playing dance festivals. We’re basically a trance band who use Simon and Garfunkel’s instruments and harmonies.”

Penmarric

Thought this photo was a funny little book review in and of itself.

The book sucks primarily because every character in it is a real piece of shit.  Like an Altman film but somehow Altman could make that work for me. Or at least he did in “Nashville”.  Not “Shortcuts” though.  But that’s a whole different section on the website.
