Come on out to NOCTURNAL where we will be rocking the casbah (robbing the cashbox? rotting the cat box?) with Misti Rae and Shabbadoo!
$5 at the door gets you a good time, festivities start promptly at 9, BE THERE or be a rhombus.

Directly from the proverbial horse's mouth, and by horse I mean JACK!
"Okay, so here’s how this is going to work.
The Wilderness is expected to be rolling out in August or September. A pre-order price of $10.00 gets you:
:: A compact disc of the album (remember those things? shiny platters of digitally coded music?)
:: A selection in the weeks before the album’s release of downloadable practice sessions, in which we roll through the new tunes as well as some old favorites.
:: Inclusion on a special e-mail list with which we give you news on the album’s development.
:: Last but not least, your very own shortwavedahlia.org e-mail address! Now your spam has somewhere new to go!
PayPal your money over to shortwavedahlia@yahoo.com OR to send it by snail mail, contact Jack at jack@shortwavedahlia.org for the mailing address.
So what do you say? Ready for the next phase of Shortwave Dahlia?

Quoth the Jack:
"We're ready to give you a taste of what's to come on The Wilderness, so the completed (perhaps not final mix of) "A Novel Idea" will be premiering here tonight. Are you excited? Huh? We are.
Or as we like to say at practice, "You like that shit?"

Hey all!
I wanted to quickly remind you about our last gig for 2007, which is 2nd annual Memphis Roller Derby Ho Ho Ho Burlesque Show--a fundraiser to take place at The Hi-Tone Saturday, December 8th! Of course, you want to jet on over to http://www.memphisrollerderby.com to find out more, but did I mention burlesque is involved? :D
And how about this poster, hmm?
See you there! |

| SD Update |
[Nov. 2nd, 2007|12:54 pm] |
Here a few updates that I've not gotten a chance to post, as I am made of FALE!
First off SHOW UPDATE!
Don't forget, Shortwave Dahlia will be at Neil's Saturday, November 10th, with J.D. Reager & the Cold Blooded Three AND Ginsu Wives.
The cover is $5 as usual and the show starts at 10:00 PM!
Some very cool news, by way of Warren Ellis, of all people!
From the mouth of Jack!
In his (Warren Ellis') own description:
“‘Song For Vara,’ the longest song on the ‘cast, reminds me of many things. For me, it’s an alchemy of autumn nights spent by the radio in the 80s, poured out as postrock.”
Excuse me, I think I just soiled myself. For those of you with clean underpants, download the podcast at http://warrenellis.com
And yet MORE Kudos for "Song for Vara"
Interesting…a fantastic write-up!
Not Dead Yet reviews "Song for Vara"
The band is getting noticed, which is fantastic!
Have you signed onto the Shortwave Dahlia Forum? It's the best place to get your Shortwave Dahlia news and interact with the band and other musically inclined people!
That's all the news for now!
More to come soon. I know the band has been in the studio, working up their musical alchemy. So new SD music on the horizon!! |
