On this date in 1994, The Dandy Warhols (Courtney Taylor, Peter Holmstrom, Eric Hedford, and someone else) played their first ever show at the world famous X-Ray Cafe in downtown Portland. Whoever that someone else was fired from the band not too long after, and Zia McCabe was recruited to take her place. Four years later, founding member Eric Hedford left the band and was replaced by Courtney’s cousin, Brent DeBoer. This is the entire personnel history of The Dandy Warhols. Questions?

I just found this shot I took of Axl. That dude is so cool. Rock.

“Speedy Death”

It really is amazing what a handful of British actors can do with a video camera and a couple good quality fill-lights.

I have a Twitter account, right? Maybe I should Tweet at least once a day as my new years resolution.

FROM GOTHMAN 503-XXX-XXXX

FROM TWITTER

@CourtneyTaylor2 Is this Court’s twitter acct?

FROM COURT 503-XXX-XXXX

I just texted to what I think is my Twitter account. Is there any way to check?

FROM GOTHMAN 503-XXX-XXXX

Yes, that’s it.

FROM COURT 503-XXX-XXXX

Ah. Well I guess put something on our site to tell folks I’m gonna try to be that guy.

Hey, everyone. Happy New Year. Courtney’s going to try to tweet every day in 2012.  Follow at @CourtneyTaylor2, because he has lots to say. Also follow the band’s official twitter at @TheDandyWarhols, just because.

Happy New Year! It should be a great one. A new album, big tours, and The Dandy Warhols turn eighteen. That’s right, finally legal.

GOTHMAN

Well ho ho ho. Just a note to let those of you with dollars and pounds and euro to throw our way that while our web store will be open during the holidays, items ordered afterrrrrr…NOW will not ship until first week of January ’12.  Here, just draw up what you’re giving and hand that over to your loved one. George Lucas sold an empty box, and we kids LOVED it.  Ohh, deep in the malaise were we in the dark days of the late 1970s that even an empty box would satisfy, for just one minute, our budding consumerist pangs. And we’ve been buying empty boxes ever since.  Merry Christmas!

These two guys are particularly fun to watch in these two roles but the movie is such a mess that I found myself with way too much time to think things like B minus

Cowboys & Aliens

It was really only about three problems which took this movie from sweet to sucks and all of them were as easily fixable as the title.

We needed a new shirt to sell at our annual holiday shows and I had not seen anyone do up one of those holiday sweaters on a t-shirt before, so I thought it would be a funny thing for the Dandys to do, and it really just snowballed from there. We have a limited amount left over, so have at ‘em.
