Here's something worth getting excited about as we toil through this waking life. Portland, Oregon's Dandy Warhols are coming to the Glass House in Pomona just a little under a month from now, on June 5. Tickets are on sale this Saturday (May 9) at noon, $20 at the door, $18 in advance.
I'm pretty psyched, the Dandys are definitely in the list of “bands that I dig that I've never gotten to see live before.” They're touring behind last year's …Earth to the Dandy Warhols…, and a new remix EP available on their MySpace or at dandywarhols.com. Plus, they've got a lifetime of goodwill built up with nerds (such as myself) for this. (Courtney Taylor-Taylor was even on the show, OMG.)
Also happening at the Glass House: the amusingly named, to various levels, metal bands Hatebreed, Chimaira, Winds of Plague, Dying Fetus and Toxic Holocaust on August 18. $20. Tickets on sale tomorrow at noon.
