italian xmas – The Dandy Warhols ☆ Official

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

Written by sea gothman on 04 Dec 2009. Posted in The Dandy Warhols.

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.
