Hanging out with the Dandy Warhols next weekend
 

A neighbor friend of mine knows the band opening up for them, and we're all gonna go hang after the show. I didn't even know who Dandy Warhols were, just YouTube'd them.. pretty cool, trippy videos.

No SHit!!!

I LOVE that band, lucky SOB! :)

They make some great music. I got into them way back when after finding one of their promo CDs gathering dust in the radio station I worked at. Was both thrilled and horrified to hear two of their songs on car commercials years later.

Interesting music...

I'm a fan, but their live show is seriously dull. Years ago when I saw them in Montreal, they didn't let the local opening act play so they could do the whole show themselves and literally, played an extended 15-20 minute version of every single song for 4 hours!

By the end, the audience was passed out, lying down on the ground.

Reminds me of a Blues Traveller concert I saw years ago, jam fest lasted for hours, people even started leaving.

Looking forward to this concert though, should be fun

Very cool man...

Europeans Billing Europe!
 

Yo! Sounds like hanging out after the show might be the best part anyway :thumbsup

Hey Adrian! Long time.

Forrest Black worked on some of the Dandy Warhols web stuff years ago when he did a lot of design for Capitol Records.

The vocalist looks like Ashton Kutcher

Lol... guess you are not a big jam band fan... I love those extended jams. If the audience isn't lying on the floor by the end then the band failed. Not enough improvisation in music these days, imo.

The problem was most of the "extension" was without any singing, just instrumental. I'm not much of an instrumental kind of guy (probably why I also hate electronic and dance music) - I like me some lyrics in my songs - which when they actually do sing, I think the Warhols have some great ones :)

Aren't they the guys (and gal) that always get naked?

Thats awesome man. My band has members of Brian Johnstown Masscre who was in movie with the Dandy's called Dig, have you seen that movie?

I saw them opening for the Stones in 2007. I didn't like the show or the music. Granted they were working with a pretty bad PA system

Their Thirteen Tales album is awesome.

Love that movie. One of the best music documentaries of all time imo. Hope those BJM guys have steppped back just enough on the dope to be able play. I am not about to tell them to leave the drugs out of Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll, but got to at least maintain enough straightness to play the gigs. :winkwink::thumbsup

Understand, yeah, the jams aren't for everyone but there are things you can do that help. Next time drop two hits of acid and call me in the morning to let me know how things went... :winkwink:

LOL, luckily the member of BJM we have in our band is totally clean. He was in the band for 4 years so he has some crazy stories.

Hey Keith, I was gonna hit you up, my friend has tons of stories from doing that TV show in Costa Rica, I wanted to tell ya all about it.

That bad sucks. My GF is in one of their latest videos splashing around like a dolphin and naked. She showed me the video and I was bored as fuck.

I think that says more about you than it does the band.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

btw... when your opinion starts to matter then we will let you know.

oh I get it because I was not excited to see her in some video

Ok fucktard thank you

Lets see the skank you are are fucking

I interviewed them years ago when they were first starting out in Portland. They are a cool band with a good sound. The trick to seeing them live used to be catching them on the right amount of drugs (I don't know if they still get high or not). You see them with not enough drugs and they were bad. You see them with too much and they were boring. Just the right amount though and they do a good live show.

You're a friend of a friend of the opening band? I bet the headliners can hardly wait to "hang out" with you!

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Cool man hit me up anytime I'll be around, having a relaxed weekend here for a change :)

You can't come back with anything better than that? Didn't people stop saying "skank" and "fucktard" about a decade ago?

I saw you and your girlfriend in a video you submitted to Homegrown... we rejected it. Too boring. We couldn't blame your girlfriend though.

You should have them autograph your chest!

Dandys rule. Bohemian Like You is my fave https://youtube.com/watch?v=vK5MC8pa_cY
