Check it, dogg. We were asked to participate in this years “Art Rocks” with the Decemberists, the Shins, Modest Mouse, and other Portland big shot bands. We all decorated mini guitars and those guitars, in turn, will be autioned off and the proceeds will benefit Buckman Arts Magnetic Elementary School here in PDX.

We’ve got a little jaunt coming up at the end of May that bleeds into the month of June. We start off at Sasquatch on May 27 (tickets now available). Then, we head Very North to Canada, taking in Calgary (May 29), Edmonton (May 30), Vancouver (June 1), and drop off in Victoria (June 2, too close to McCabe’s B-Day!). Tickets for the Canadian gigs will be on sale soon. We’ll let you know.
Later, rockers.
Our favorite home town station, 94.7, is having a special “Nineties at Noon” today, featuring our record …Come Down. Check it out streaming online today at noon (pdt)
What’s up, dog?
Hey, we’re getting ready to go into the mixing phase of our new record. Should be pretty speedy. Yeah. The band took a week or so off, and in the meantime, our friends, The Upsidedown, mixed their new record (it’s fucking awesome) at The Oddy. That’s something to really look forward to.
We have some dates we’re going to announce very, very soon. Hang on for those, because they’re going to surprise you.
Lee has some special projects coming down the pike. Can’t tell you what exactly they are going to be yet (it’s kinda a secret, so keep it under your hat), but the result of these massive efforts will be a lot more Dandys content for you to ingest. Stay tuned.
In other news: Gothy (that’s me, you can tell by the rambling, run-on sentences) is now in New York, doing the Dandys bidding in the Big Apple. If you see him, say hello, and maybe give him a ciggy — they’re damn expensive here!
Anything else? Huh… Guess not.
Have fun, rockers.
PS: Oh yes. We now have a Japanese companion site to dandywarhols.com —

So yeah, things have never been better at The Oddy. We’re just cranking the tunes out, and every single one is awesome. You heard us. We can’t for you to hear our little party we’ve been having here. I don’t think we’ve mentioned this before, but we’ve been working with engineer Greg Gordon this time out, trying some new things, and yeah, Greg has proved to be totally 100% on it. This new album, we can honestly say, is the best work we’ve done. Serious. Shake our hand on it.
Talk to you soon.

Hey everyone. I’d like to thank y’all for being patient with us as we learn in the process of doing our own store. I hate that I’ve turned our fans into guinea pigs so it’s killing me that we’ve definitely run into a few problems early on. It’s come to my attention that all order confirmations are sent from store@dandywarhols.com. Much to my dismay our mac mail was not linked to that account and we’ve only been responding to inquiries emailed to travis@dandywarhols.com as directed in our FAQ. I’ve fixed the mac mail to receive store@dandywarhols.com email so if you’ve written there concerned about an order you’ve placed and paid for but haven’t received yet, you will get a response from us shortly. This is a MASSIVE BLUNDER that should have been figured out much sooner. If you have written to store@dandywarhols.com and don’t receive a response from us in the next 48 hrs please contact me directly at lee@dandywarhols.com. For those of you who want to instant message the store, our store screen name at AIM is DANDY MERCH. That IM should be up from 10 am to 6 pm Mon – Fri. Feel free to give us a shout there and we can expedite any answers to questions or concerns you might have. You can also try telephoning us at (503) 241-2396.
Please please please do accept my apologies. Your response has been tremendous and slightly overwhelming. As you can see from the above I’m making the effort to ensure you guys are taken care of. Hopefully we can get the few trouble bits ironed out so I can get on to adding new product to the store and putting stuff on SALE!
Thank you again for your patience and understanding

Hey, thanks for coming to our gigs last week, we had a great time. Hope you liked it. We’re home, now, and up for some more recording. If you saw us last week, you got to hear a couple of our new songs, so you already know how awesome they are. Yeah. that’s just the beginning.
As always, if you didn’t bring enough cabbage to the gig to buy some of our new threads, our store is open. There’s a new ARMS shirt that Gothy worked up that’s pretty killer.
Talk to you soon,
