Here’s the bill for this festy. That’s Gang of Two on now. Then us. Then Sisters of Mercy.
I just woke up from three days in Amsterdam. Notice Motley Crue on this list? Tommy took a cab from here to Amsterdam to see our show and hang out for a couple days. Apparently it cost around 500 bucks. Love that guy.
Here is everything I’m traveling with for the next few days. Feels good. Very few possessions. Very head clearing. Probably impossible as a lifestyle.
Here is a list of the items. They’re kind of interesting. I mean that the combination/collection of items to comfortably travel/tour with is the interesting part. The spanish fan is probably the only individual item which is somewhat interesting in and of itself.
Spare T, Spare sleeveless T, socks, underwear, phone charger, mini pit stick, passport, europower adaptor, tour laminate, tourbook, moisturizer, sharpie, reading glasses, sunglasses, concealer, eye shadow, earplugs, gum, wallet, two black lighters, fan, mini toothbrush and paste, manpurse, scarf. Plus the clothes I’m wearing.
The thing I wasn’t prepared for is bicycling in the rain in Amsterdam.
Alright, I really can’t find words to describe how completely badass our show was last night in Paris. Um….nope. Damn. One of the best, if not the best ever. Damn.
Well here’s beautiful Lucerne today (Switzerland) which is also a brand of milk that I grew up with. How much do ya wanna bet that I’m gonna find some absolutely wicked fondue here tonight.
The Capitol Years 1995-2007, featuring fourteen classic rockers and one new tune (“This is the Tide”) from The Dandy Warhols, is now available for purchase. That is if your country does not start with “United” and ends with “America”, or is Canada. There’s always a catch.
ITEM: Regarding the pre-sale for the dates announced earlier this week (USA/Canada), tickets will officially go on pre-sale next week, and we will let you all know the password to login and buy tickets. That’s how that goes. More dates on this leg of the tour will also be announced soon, plus, the other half of the continent. Those dates are forthcoming.
ITEM: Next Monday (19 July), The Capitol Years comes out in Europe and other places. EMI has sent a long a link they would like you to purchase the record through. amazon.co.uk
ITEM: You may remember talk last year of Court working with The Wolfmen. Well, they have a new single getting ready to drop on Monday, July 19th called (ha ha) “July 20”. (Someone’s birthday, what?) “July 20” is a supercool track, with Tay-Tay doing remix honors with Jacob Portrait, and you should totally pick it up in the store when you pick up The Capitol Years.
Hey, here is an interview Fathead gave with Triple-J in Melbourne last week, talking about living in Australia, festivals, and the new Capitol Years record. At the end of the interview, you will hear half of the newest Dandys song, “This is the Tide”. The second half of the song is just as good, so you should buy it when it comes out wherever you live.
Hi there. These dates are the but the first half of this tour in the United States and Canada starting in October and finishing up in December. More dates will be announced soon, so hold your horses.
