The day is here, and we couldn’t be more excited. Live From The Odditorium is a go. Tune in to stageit.com/TheDandyWarhols today at 12noon, 3pm, and 11pm PST (that’s GMT/UTC-8) and hang out with the Dandys and hear some songs and share in some holiday cheer. Catch one, two, or all three shows. We won’t mind.
If you weren’t able to attend one of our two live streaming events in your part of the world on December 17th don’t be bummed, we’ve added one more live stream that will beam direct from The Odditorium at 11pm PST (US).
The Dandy Warhols cordially invite you to two unprecedented events on Tuesday, December 17th, streaming LIVE and direct from the legendary Odditorium.
Visit live with Courtney, Peter, Zia, and Brent as they lead you on a tour of their spacious Portland headquarters, capped off with a special live acoustic performance direct from the Odditorium stage.
These shindigs will be streamed worldwide Tuesday, December 17th via stageit.com; one at 12pm PST and another at 3pm PST. Tickets for online viewing are available for purchase now HERE.
This week the Dandys are recording a cover of the Runaways’ “Cherry Bomb” (only one of the greatest rock songs of all time). Here’s Zia getting ready to put on some theremin. We’ll let you know when you can hear it.
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!
PS. Are you excited about The Dandy Warhols Are Sound coming out in two weeks? I am. I was going back and forth comparing songs on Monkey House and Are Sound the other day and was knocked out by the difference. But not how like a crazy transvestite would knock you out with an iron in her purse, no. Like how when a little kid will sing you a song and give you a hug because that’s what little kids do. That kind of knocked out. On July 14, get a hug!
Zia and Poopie decided to throw a Michael Jackson dance party at the Odditorium on Saturday night. You could say it was very successful in that way more people showed up than expected. Like a “who are these people” amount of people. Guess you shouldn’t post a party on Craigslist. ::shrug:: (Craigslist joke by Brian Coates, professional quipster.)
