I just saw some dude spray painting the lawn and sidewalk — off Lovejoy, under the 405 — white. The guy was obviously on official business, because he was wearing Jerry Seinfeld pants. When I spray paint things like that, it’s called “vandalizing”. (Art is what they call it in the year 2020 — you’ll see, Tom Potter.) However, I don’t ever recall spray painting actual living, breathing grass. Dumb.

So, our city is so stupid sometimes. Get it? (Don’t move here.) Where do we like to get away to? Our home away from home, our not so secret love, Australia. Damn straight.

28 Oct 2008 – Metro City – Perth, WA
31 Oct 2008 – The Enmore Theatre (All Ages) – Sydney, NSW

Stay tuned, you.

A date has been added to our tour next month: say hello to Nashville on September 24th. Tickets go on sale tomorrow (Aug 2) at 10am for the show at the Mercy Lounge.

Our friends at KEXP in Seattle are having their Sixth Annual KEXP Summer BBQ on August 9, and we’re gonna go! You should totally go, too.

Joseph Arthur and The Lonely Astronauts, The Helio Sequence, Common Market and The Saturday Knights are also there. We’ll be on at seven — the magic hour.

Buy some tickets here.

We are sad to say it but we’re forced to cancel our shows in Brasil, and we’re really not sure why. It has something to do with government agencies and such? Beats us. We’re trying to get these gigs in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo rescheduled, because we really want to play there, so we’ll let you know what comes of it.

Mais tarde,

Os Warhols.

If you’re in a record store in Australia or New Zealand Saturday, you should totally pick up our new record, …EARTH TO THE DANDY WARHOLS….

( If you’re not, the record will be in your store August 19. )

…Earth To The Dandy Warhols… will be in stores in a little more than a month in the U.S. A lot of you have purchased it in advance via our Fan Club, so you know how great it is. But some cool people haven’t heard a peep yet, because they’re busy, you know? We need to get our songs on the radio. So, we’re asking you to call up or email your city’s cool station (you know the one) and request that they play the Trucker Song (“The Legend of the Last of the Outlaw Truckers”) so more people can hear it and we can sell some records and keep doing this forever and ever.

Thanks rocker.

Hey, what’s up. Spain, France, Italy, sell-out show in Zurich. Really having an spectacular time.

We’re super excited about our first shows in Brazil coming up in August. We were sorry we couldn’t swing it when we were in South America for Argentina and Chile last year, so we’re super stoked to get in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo on August 28th and 29th, respectively. Should be fun.

And, if you’re in PDX and going to see Jesus and Mary Chain at the Wonder on the 17, why don’t you go a little early to catch our best friends and label mates, The Upsidedown. JAMC and the Upsidedown? That shit should be pretty crazy.

Ciao.

We would like to apologize to our fans about what happened in Vancouver, re the change in venue. When the gig was moved, it was not revealed to us that the new venue was not all-ages, and that left a lot of people who had already purchased tickets out in the cold. It makes no difference that this information was withheld from us until showtime and until it was too late to rectify the situation, a lot of you had your night ruined because of it, and the responsibility ultimately falls to us. For this, we sincerely apologize and hope you will not hold it against us if our paths cross again in the future.

With sincere love,

The Dandy Warhols.

Hey, bad news first. We had to postpone our PDX gig this Saturday due to having to have our gear shipped to Europe and all of that. It’s all wrapped up the price of fuel and planes and there not being enough of them in the air as there used to be. Blame Bush, he’s in charge of that…isn’t he? Yeah, it totally sucks, but we’re making the show up in October, when…

…we tour the United States.
