NO SHOWS WHAT?
The Dandy Warhols at Niceto Club, Buenos Aires, Argentina – it was a gas.
“Remember stage dives and crowd surfs? They still do that in Buenos Aires. I had to get a piece of that action! Holy fuck that was a good show!” – Zia.
…more after the jump…
On our way down South America wayyy, whoaa-o. Dandys take on Buenos Aires Thursday, and Santiago Saturday. Should be a pretty funny trip.
Statue of Faust at Kurt’s favorite restaurant.
Kurt: the belt buckle.
The letter Kurt’s father sent to him when Kurt was serving in WWII. Kurt had been captured by the Nazis so the letter was returned saying that Kurt was missing in action. When Kurt returned after the war his father gave it to him but he never opened it. He passed it along to his own son who also has never opened it so now it sits in the Kurt museum and has still never been opened. No living soul knows what it says.

Brussels got balls.
You can just pull over and say a quick prayer to Anton.
Here we go.
18 kilometers of tunnels filled with booze under this place. This famous Champagne town of Epernay has more kilometers of tunnels than it does roads.
Musee du Champagne.
I think I feel a song coming on.
Then.
Now.
Went to a tasting at Castellane. Mmm. Big bottle.
I had to pick some grapes. Of course. They’re almost ready.
The bones of Dom Perrignon. I love this kid. No respect.
Commando Champagne. Who woulda….
Like Russian nesting dolls.
I went to this amazing fortress/castle and I must say it’s my favorite. Wow what a cursed place tho. I couldn’t really capture the strength of it in a photo but it seemed as impregnable as any I’ve seen. Turns out everyone who owned it pretty much got their ass handed to them. Or their head.
The other side.

Let’s experiment with non-linear storytelling! Man slaps dog (with kisses) – but why??
Management wants you to buy some concert tickets, dammit. See SHOWS right now and buy a dozen.

Standon Calling Festival crew. Toto we’re not in 1997 anymore.
I really can’t think of anything clever here.
This was by far the coolest festival I’ve ever seen or heard of. My crap phone wouldn’t send so I’m doing it now that I’m home.
This is a photo of a photo hanging on the wall of my favorite hotel bar in Dublin. Can anyone name either of these two people? And don’t say Rackajawea, that’s not a real person.

Me with Rat Scabies (The Damned) and Chris Constantinou (Adam Ant, The Mutants) at a proper pre-war English pub in London. Then off to Casa Scabies.
Fatty n CC. (Photo Scotty National Poop Hero Nation Simons.)
OK, Rat Scabies and The Holy Grail it is. He being a confirmed conspiracy knights templar JFK n shit a rooney of course has a book about him and his actual travels to Renne Le Chateau in search of the Holy Grail. Like of course if anyone’s gonna find it its fucking Rat Scabies.
This is the record that was playing when we got to the Scabies’ house. It’s great.
Sidenotes: I’ve never met anyone called Ratty before and today when I met our new bus driver he said “good ta meetchooz I’m Ratty.” OK. Double Rat, which happens to also be what they yell when they slop down double food rations for underweight recruits in the US armed forces.
