We will be playing an all-ages show on March 10th at University Chapel in SE Portland as a part of Google’s Hotpot concert series. The show is free, but you will need to get a wristband for entry. Follow @HotpotPDX on Twitter for details on where to get your wristband.

Portland rock club Satyricon , dubbed by some as CBGB of the West Coast, will be closing its doors forever in October, but not without a month-long send off for a quarter century of service to the Portland rock community.
When The Dandys were asked to participate in this send off, we said “of course.” Some of the band’s most memorable moments from its formative years took place between Satyricon’s graffitied walls. It was a no-brainer to ask Swoon 23 and Sugarboom, friends and Tim/Kerr label mates, to join us. Yeah, that’s a pretty legendary line-up. But then we thought, huh, what’s missing from this picture. Well, it turned out that missing piece was Eric Hedford. So, for the first time in over twelve years, Eric Hedford, drummer and founding member of The Dandy Warhols, will be performing with the band.
I know it sounds too good to be true. And if you were born before 1979, it is. See, we thought it that since this is kind of a scene reunion show that we have the party be for ages thirty-one (31) and over. Even worse news, I’m sure there will be no smoking allowed. Have you ever seen a clear Satyricon? I haven’t. Seems wrong.
How does one go about getting tickets? Lee has the answer:
So here’s the deal…
There’s a total of 240 tickets available for the 10/16 Satyricon gig and 2 ways to make sure you get tickets.
1st way – We’re reserving the first 140 tix for Pre Sale starting 9/21 at Noon PST. Access to the presale will be given to anyone who purchases Pre Sale [see below — g.] tickets to our 12/12 Crystal Ballroom show. Put simply. Purchase Pre Sale tickets to The Dandy Warhols Crystal Ballroom gig on 12/12 and you’ll get the first chance to purchase tickets for Satyricon.
2nd way – On 9/23 at Noon PST we’ll release the last 100 tickets to the general public. The ticket link will be live on dandywarhols.com.

Hey, if you missed this You Who show in Portland, check out this awesome blog about it.
ROCK THE BABY: YOU WHO, DANDY WARHOLS!
When I heard that one of my bestest favoritest bands in the whole wide WORLD would be playing a You Who show — THE DANDY WARHOLS -it was a great reason to hop on the freeway and head down to Portland with the family for the long Memorial Day weekend. I mean, how could I miss a Dandies show played for kids, with the setlist chosen by the young daughter of bandmember Zia McCabe, played in an old converted schoolhouse? Come on! MissSeven is a fan as well; she likes to sing along to “Plan A” and “We Used To Be Friends.”

A reminder, this Sunday afternoon we are appearing at You Who variety show at McMenamins Kennedy School in Portland. The show starts at 1, and The Dandys will go on at about 1:45 and perform an abbreviated set chosen by ZIa’s daughter Matilda.
Tickets are still available here.

If you’re like me, I’m so sorry. No, if you’re like me you have an affinity for New Years, like one-hundred times stronger than with The Christmas. (Sacrilege.) Because no matter what, I’m always saying to myself “well, that was the worst year ever,” and for once I can just maybe look forward to something not so terrible. And hey, I’m looking forward to people saying “Twenty-ten” – the thought of not having to hear “two-thousand-and-blah” ad infinitum, I’m pretty damned giddy about that. Maybe I will even leave the Gothman Estate, go out and venture into the cloud of irresponsible drunkards one more time in observance of this turning of the decade. Wouldn’t that be something?
Well, if there was any show that would bring out a zombie shut-in, the one cooked up for 31 DEC 09 would be it.

Give me a break. The World Famous Kenton Club in North Portland will be packed. Don’t dress like a bum, and maybe take it easy with the sauce.
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.

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.

Our label mate Logan Lynn is receiving significant ink ‘n pixels about his new record From Pillar to Post so we thought we would throw Logan an old fashioned Dandys-style listening party this Sunday night. Hell yeah. And if you’re in Portland you can come to Logan’s party for freezies. After sufficient digestion of Logan’s awesome new disc, Rescue, the famous DJ who shares the same DNA as Zia because she is Zia, will be spinning tunes on what she calls a turntable, because that’s what DJs do. This party will have food stuff and drink stuff, and probably someone will attempt to take their clothes off. Then what? I don’t know, probably something “adult.” (This party is twenty-one and over, but really if you’re under twenty-one, stop trying to grow up so fast and enjoy being so adorably young.)
Here are the details in the popular un-Gothman-rambling prose version:
LOGAN LYNN LISTENING PARTY
with DJ RESCUE (ZIA MCCABE)
SUNDAY – 11/22/09 – 8PM
JINX (21+)
232 NW 12TH, PEARL DISTRICT – PDX
