Heellllo,
Sitting here in D.C. on our day off. Jenn is watching the Spurs game and yelling at the T.v.. How is everyone? We are pooped but almost done with this tour. Wedding Present was an awesome time. Got to go to Canada for the first time. We love it! Hopefully we will be back soon. Right now we are touring with Sia and shes super amazing. Her voice blows us away every night. Shes such a sweetheart too. The crowds have been great and there has been so much support!
Arizona, we love all of you out there. We’ve been reading your comments and appreciate the support and we understand about some of you being upset. We plan on helping as much as we can, and hopefully returning soon. We just can’t understand how that passed and also whats happening to the teachers. It’s a really sad situation. Stay in touch with us Az fans, we still want to reach out to you all however we can. Possible ustream concerts and chats? I think so
We have some Tx shows coming up if you haven’t already checked… Houston,Austin and San Antonio. Tickets are all on sale now. San Antonio start getting your tickets! The Offbeats and Viet-Ruse are on this bill as well. Tickets are at frontgatetickets.com and at Josabi’s.We will have all three vinyls with us at the shows too! and new shirts!

Thanks to all that bought Adventures in Coverland 1,2 and 3. Hope your having fun with that boardgame too!
If your record store isnt selling them.. contact blackheart at blackheart.com and ask your local record shop to order them for you too. Most can.
thanks for all the lovely letters too… you can also write us at girlsinacoma@aol.com. Its easier to get a reply there:)

Coolest Song In The World! AGAIN! Yay!
Happy February 2010!
I don’t know why…it’s just that I got to flip my calendar and I’m pretty excited about this year with the new record and stuff.. .yada yada. (I can’t believe I typed “Yada Yada.”)
The Beach Boy/Dumb single (buy it on digitally or on red vinyl HERE is you haven’t already) is doing pretty good! Little Steven chose CA Beach Boy as “The Coolest Song In The World” on The Underground Garage last week! Soooo cool! Thanks to Little Steven!
You also might have seen us play it on The Price Is Right…or heard it on KROQ when Rodney Bingenheimer’s spun it…or The Underground Garage when Drew Carey’s played it!
Yes. We’re excited. Just wait till the whole record comes out!!!! IIIIEEEEEEE!
We’ve also been spending a nice chunk of time working on ‘GirlTrash All Night Long’ the movie! Lots of fun but some very late nights! You see the movie takes place at night…one long night and so all the filming is at night… yep. There’s nothing like chasing a giant 1982 Chevy Nova around the lot of the Fonda at 5 in the morning while screaming at the tops of our lungs! A bunch of crazy scenes..it’s going to be a really fun film. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled in the coming days for calls out for extras. You might be able to be in some scenes with us too!
And…We just added a show for tonight in LA! Our pals from Killola needed us to fill in for them because Lisa’s too sick to chirp for you. So here are the deets. Looks like a great night…FREE show, open bar, other bands are cool! WOOOO! What more can you ask for (that isn’t totally illegal)! See deets below:
Hope to see you all soon! We’re booking tour dates and have begun to add a few shows around the country so hang in there.
With whisky kisses,
Kelly & the boys!
p.s. be our pal on Facebook!

Happeeee Hollydays!
Dear friends of The Dollyrots,
Merry Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Festivus, Winter Solstice, Boxing Day (etc) and HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hope your 2010 is the best ever!
A few holiday tips:
Booze
Drugstores are great places to buy last minute presents
You can always pretend your sick if you need alone time
Easy on the sugar
Try to have fun
AND PLEASE!
Don’t drink and drive!
If you’re still looking for gifts I finally set up an Etsy shop, not much in it but if someone needs a scarf made by me then you’re set. You could also visit the store at Dollyrots.com or the Blackheart Records store. They have awesome new Christmas vinyl with our version of “Santa Baby!” So cool. And for the newer Dollyrots’ fans… we have “Eat My Heart Out” our first album, up on iTunes again!
I wish we had a release date or tour dates to announce but it’s not set in stone yet and I don’t want to jump the gun again! If it happens before the holiday break I’ll make an edit and post it here.
We sure love you guys! Thank you for always supporting us and regularly reminding us why we’re doing this crazy band thing! May 2010 bring happiness, healthiness and great success!
With the most sincere kisses,
Kelly (& Luis & Chris & Fuzzy & Quito!)
ps: I didn’t have time to put up my tree but this is how it looked in ‘06

We choose Real.
Helllooooo
So here we are in South Carolina. Taking it easy watching trash t.v. Stallllionairesss. Ha.
Tours been interesting so far. Texas your always fun. We had Daria, our favorite Austinite, come on stage and do her thing. Too much of her thing. None the less she was fun. Dallas and Houston was another round of good times too. Over all..thank you Texas. Next stop was somewhere in Missouri. Lots of dancing, possible hallucinates being passed around among the dancers….which was causing them to break out the glow sticks. We played, we saw, we left. Met up with our new friends Black Gold in Atlanta and met a new Atlanta friend Nastassia, shes rad. Drunken Unicorn was a cool place… nice old club vibes.
Fixed the breaks in the Silver Bullet and now we are in SC. Tomorrow, The Milestone in North Carolina.
I think im getting a cold.
Jenn is shooting some video.. so we will have that soon. Im tweetin pics so join us at twitter.com/girlinacoma.
Guess what… we are working on a special treat for all of you after this tour. We are starting on it now.. and soon it will be in your hands.
More soon.
