 If you know the Dorktones drummer and illustrator Pieter Dorrenboom, you will know that he is everything but a pretentious arty-fart. However, once in while our lovable, down to earth, mod-wannabe is invited by his industry peers to join an art exposition. This easter weekend it's that time again. Pieter drags himself to Amsterdam to mingle in the art-loving in-crowd to talk about, and possibly sell some of his fantastic work.
If you find yourself wondering what to do this easter, head over to Amsterdam and visit the garage sale cash & carry art-shop. Look for these distinct P.M. Dorrenbooms and you'll bound to meet their creator too. |

 Your favorite little garage beat bubblegum combo, the Dorktones, made a quick visit to the world famous Wisseloord Studios last Monday. Our dear friend De Schuinsmarcheerder invited us to come over to record one or two tracks in this great studio.
After the initial shock and awe of being in a real big-time studio, we got to work and committed two mellow bubblegum soul tracks to tape. The tracks still need to be properly mixed but so far it looks like we're going to be huge again in China!
We'll publish them here once they're done. |

 The Dorktones are a hit in China! Somehow the remix version of our track Wouldn't you love to hate me found its way into some Chinese chart. We can't figure out what chart it is because none of the dorks read Chinese but according to our website logs, the song has been downloaded close to a thousand times within the last few days! Check out the link and if you understand what it reads, please let us know. |

 We're not sure what all the fuss is about but this Myspace thing seems very hot. Being the hipsters that we are, and after some external pressure, we decided to register the Dorktones at Myspace too.
Check out our space at Myspace and drop us a note while you're there. |
