Thursday August 21st at Abraxas: DiG! DiG! is a 2004 documentary film directed by Ondi Timoner, and produced by Ondi Timoner, Vasco Nunes and David Timoner. Compiled from seven years of footage, it contrasts the developing careers of the bands The Dandy Warhols and The Brian Jonestown Massacre and the bands' respective frontmen Courtney Taylor and Anton Newcombe. It won the Documentary Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival.
In addition to this, we have a Listening Party for the new Dandy Warhols Album "... Earth to the Dandy Warhols". We press play at 8:30pm and Dig! begins as soon as the album is finished.
Gonna miss you & your staff but i've adopted Abraxas, as all of us have, as our neighborhood local watering hole(and for some of us our neighborhood away from our neighborhood, ehh hmmm).
For fans of Factory records, Rough Trade, John Peel, Richard Hell, The Sex Pistols, the New York Punk and Post Punk movements and it's origins in the UK... See you next week!
