Thirteen Degrees In Urban Bohemia

Listen, I know it’s cold. It’s awful and no one likes it, and anyone who says they do are just trying to be stylishly contrarian. Hey, I get, it, you want to be unique, but come on – cold is dumb.  Most of us will be delighted to find out that the weather wizards are plotting a warmer weekend. Forties?  That’s almost Mediterranean, segue, in time for our Italian Xmas Extravaganzas, or Extravaganzi?  What is the latin plural for Extravag?

Look, we are almost sold out of these tickets for admission to these shows, and I hate to think that you’re going to be shut out in sultry forty degree weather not wearing a coat.  It almost makes me sick!  Do not get shut out like all those people I refuse to text back the night of the show.  Get your tickets for Seattle (Friday 12/11 with Hawkeye) HERE.  Get your tickets for PDX (Saturday 12/12 with The Upsidedown – 21+, Sunday 12/13 with 1776 – all ages) HERE.

Sidebar, your honor:  The people would have you to know that an all ages show does not mean dry. If it pleases you to consume alcoholic beverages this Sunday at The Dandy Warhols all ages show with 1776, the Wonder Ballroom will be happy to serve those beverages to you with your proper legal identification.  Of-age and underage patrons are to be segregated so no funny business transpires.

See you at the shows.

Snippets for Friday, Dec 4th

I come to the Oddy today (always a big mistake) and the place is torn up because of some dumb remodeling. Because we live underwater in the Northwest, everything everywhere is damp all the time. That’s great for you skin, but pretty awful for carpets. When we had that flood in the Big Room (!!) it was decided to rip up the carpet in the Grey Room and take care of the water seepage-slash-mold problem there. BORING. Thor is in there right now, hammering something.  So you can see where recording would be prohibited just now. The band is rehearsing, though. Right now.  “Godless.”  The thing I am most displeased about is the coffee today. It is pretty weak.

Snippets:

ITEM. Aren’t you excited about these big Italian Christmas shows? I am! (Not sarcastic!) I will be working during the shows – showing movies with Scotty – but you will need a ticket to get in.   For Seattle, go here, and for the PDX shows, go here.  I really want to see 1776 on the 13th. I just did the art for their new album and I haven’t even seen them play live yet, that’s how dumb I am.

ITEM. A reminder about the Beat The World Guild Guitar Contest. This contest ends January 5th, so you had better go to the BTW site and sign up. Plus, Elliott told me last night that the guitar being given away is the same model Pete is using in the “I Dreamt Of Yes” video. Trivia!

ITEM. Court thought you should see the juxtaposition of Logan Lynn’s video “Bottom Your Way To The Top” on the Spike-TV site.

Be good.

PROFILE: Music the way The Dandy Warhols like it

Zia wanted you to see this profile on ESPN.com

Sound check is over for The Dandy Warhols. The band has dispersed to the grassy courtyard next to the bar where they’ll be playing tonight and Zia McCabe — keyboardist, percussionist and organizational brains for the Dandy Warhols — takes a bag of rough-hewn tobacco out of her purse and rolls a cigarette as her 5-year-old daughter Matilda runs by in pigtails and a black dress. McCabe shakes her head and takes a sip of her beer as she wishes aloud that her daughter will steer clear of the bartenders who work at the venue; she’s heard the women in question cursing violently while discussing their reveling ways and wants Matilda nowhere near them.

Blackbird

Hey.  Since the tragic news of Mr. Jackson’s passing yesterday, we here at The Odditorium have been besieged with requests of the status of  The Dandys’ cover of The Beatles’ “Blackbird”, as foretold, and some would say, fore-promised (that’s probably not a word), in the title track of our 2003 album Welcome To The Monkey House.  Please note that this was not an anticipated event and we had no cover of “Blackbird” all rearin’ to go.  I mean, how could we?  With both Courtney and Fathead currently out of town we cannot say when we will be able to get to this cover of “Blackbird”, but we will, as soon as we are all together and able, since we have come to find that it means so much to a lot of you.

We thank you for your continued love and patience. Much love back, on behalf of The Dandy Warhols and all of us here at the Odditorium in Portland.

Show Added: June 4, MPP Party @ The Playboy Mansion

Hey, this is pretty cool:  we’re going to be playing at the fourth annual Marijuana Policy Project party at the Playboy Mansion on June 4th.

Go ahead and read that sentence again.

This is an annual deal with these cats who do so much to help change the ridiculous policies our government has regarding marijuana, and we’re totally stoked to have been asked to take part in this year’s shindig.  This year’s party is hosted by actress Fairuza Balk, and will also feature DJs from Honeypot, and our friend David J from Bauhaus/Love and Rockets.  Also, there will probably be girls there, because, you know, it’s the Playboy Mansion.

Now tickets for this party are pretty spendy, but if you’ve got the dough, they are available [HERE] .  If you can’t make it to the Mansion, join us the following night in Pomona at The Glass House for an old-fashioned all-ages Dandy Warhol whoop-ti-doo. Tickets are still available for Pomona [HERE] .

Hope to see you there.

The Dandy Warhols Are Sound

The Dandy Warhols Are Sound (2009)

You know, July14th is Bastille Day.  All I know about Bastille Day is:  I live above a creperie, and on Bastille Day that place is bonkers busy with sexy people eating crepes on the sidewalk.  So I like to think Bastille Day is about hot girls and guys eating crepes with one hand and smoking a cigarette with the other hand while drinking sooo much wine with the third hand.

So with that in mind I think it’s fitting that we have selected The Dandy Warhols Are Sound for release on July 14th, 2009.

We have been whispering to you about The Dandy Warhols Are Sound for quite some time.  Long story short, or if you just got to our party, late 2001 and into 2002 we recorded an album’s worth of tracks here in Portland and took those tracks to New York’s Electric Lady Studios to mix with famed mixing engineer Russell Elavedo, and the result of those mixing sessions was The Dandy Warhols Are Sound.  We absolutely loved this record.  However, Capitol, our label a the time, did not.  They opted out of using our preferred mixes and remixed the record on their own to create Welcome To The Monkey House, a great album that we, and most of you, also love.

Meanwhile, The Dandy Warhols Are Sound just sat there.  Oh, it got played.  It was a staple at Odditorium parties from the start.  But there are just so many people who are at any given Odditorium party.  We had always intended to release this unheard gem on our own, but life and other records and tours and babies and crepes and red wine got in the way. Now finally, after almost seven years, on July 14, 2009 The Dandy Warhols will be proud to present to you The Dandy Warhols Are Sound.

Bring it on, bring it on, yeah…
