Thanks to our good friend Brooke for sending this our way.
Attractive Eighties Women will be returning to the stage on Dec. 11 at Lenny's! It will be our first time playing at Lenny's since Corndogorama 2008. Hard to believe, right? We're very excited to be sharing the stage with Daiquiri and America's Funnyman, Neil Hamburger. We'll be debuting a couple new tunes and jamming all the old classics as well. See you there!
xoxo,
Phoebe Cates
P.S. If you're not familiar with Neil Hamburger, check out some of the videos below. (Audio is NSFW!)
Did you know you can buy our new album, The Ancient Cry of the Tyrannosaur, online RIGHT NOW?! That's right, true believer! The wait is finally over. You can buy a copy on CD from CD baby, or you can download the album from iTunes! The album is also available in a variety of lossless formats on BandCamp. Pick your poison!
We'll be back soon, playing shows and melting spines across the Southeast! 2010 is going to be the most AEWsome year yet!

Chad Radford recently sat down with us to discuss how big a dick he is, why we hate pandas so much, and the meaning of "swamp wise." Read all about it here.
We've scheduled an in-store performance at Criminal Records this Friday, August 28th at 7:30 PM, in the heart of Little 5 Points. We'll be playing our infamous lounge set. Expect a laid back, easy listening AEW experience, slightly different from our usual schtick.

Congratulations. You are invited to a musical revolution. On August 29, 2009, we will unleash the power of our second album, The Ancient Cry of the Tyrannosaur, live at The EARL in Atlanta, GA. To celebrate, we've planned a rock and roll revival that will set your soul on fire. We're talking about an evening of pure, unadulterated rock music that will boil the very marrow of your bones! Woodstock? Altamont? The 100 Club? Yeah, something along those lines.
First up we've got Tendaberry, from right here in the ANTA! They've got a new wave/post-punk sound unlike any you've heard before. You better show up with your dancing shoes on, because the mere sound of their music will have your body involuntarily gyrating to the beat. Who's next, you ask? None other than the greatest country band in Athens, GA, The Bearfoot Hookers! If you haven't been to a Hookers show, then you don't know the first thing about a rock and roll revival. These boys play beer drinkin' gospel! By the end of their set, Rev. Tybo will have you all on your knees, taking a communion of pork rinds and PBR.
Finally, after you've all been whipped into a drunk, circle-pitting frenzy, Attractive Eighties Women will take the stage... FOR OUR LAST SHOW OF THE YEAR.
That's right. The last Attractive Eighties Women show of 2009. We're taking a break -- a four-month hiatus from performing to seek audience with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. We will be working with the Yogi to develop a new form of transcendental meditation, based on the visualization of large boobs with symmetrical areolae.
We've been preparing extensively for our trip to India in between rehearsals, mostly by eating Trader Joe's Paneer Tikka Masala. It seems to be working wonders for us, spiritually and as a band. The other day - as a direct result of the Yogi's breast visualization techniques - Kelly McGillis actually levitated 2-3 inches off the ground while playing the solo in "Death Skull Napalm Sword."
We vow to return, ready to rock by January 2010, refreshed and renewed by our time with the Yogi and our visions of beautiful bouncing jugs. Maybe we'll play a surprise show here or there. Who knows? But this CD release party is guaranteed to be the last REAL Attractive Eighties Women show for some time. SO YOU'D BETTER BE THERE! Tickets are just $8! Click here to buy them in advance!
...and did I mention that you get a free copy of our new album, The Ancient Cry of the Tyrannosaur, just for showing up?!
We'll be playing a bunch of our new songs and a bunch of old favorites. Expect the unexpected, including some new cover songs and special guest performers! This is going to be our most legendary performance since our last CD release party. If you are an AEW fan, you won't want to miss it. See you there!
xoxo,
Phoebe Cates
