NY Doll in stores April 4!!

NEW YORK DOLL the DVD will be out and in stores on April 4th. You can pre-order a copy by going to the web sites:

www.newyorkdollmovie.com or www.amazon.com.

For those interested, New York Doll will continue to play theatrically this month in San Francisco at the Red Vic theater and the Two Boots Theater in NYC (check www.newyorkdollmovie.com for specific info). Incidentally, out of nowhere, NY Doll had its biggest grossing weekend in NYC just a few weekends ago. Considering that no ad money has been spent in NYC since November...well...go figure.

Finally, I should mention that the band the New York Dolls are in studio right now finishing up a new album and it looks to be out by June. My wife and I have had the priviledge of seeing the band twice now post the Arthur film and they are fantastic. Not in a nostalgic way either. You should really treat yourselves and go see them when/if you get the chance.
