As part of a resurgence of activity, ANDREW W.K. will play a very special concert on MARCH 16th, 2010, at the FILLMORE NEW YORK at IRVING PLAZA, Manhattan, NYC. The performance will be Andrew's first headlining public concert in New York in over 5 years and comes at a time of building excitement and buzz, growing steadily ever since Andrew W.K. was first unofficially "removed" from regular live touring in 2005.

Andrew says: "I have been waiting and waiting for the perfect time to play with band in New York again. For various reasons, the universe has aligned itself last minute and the gods have responded: We have license to rage! I am so excited that this 1st show back can happen in my home city! The perfect time was a feeling in the air- with the eve of Saint Patty's providing a sweet spirit of celebration, this will be the hardest party yet."

The show also looks to celebrate the upcoming release of Andrew's "lost third album", CLOSE CALLS WITH BRICK WALLS, to be released on March 23rd, 2010 by STEEV MIKE, and packaged with a separate disc of rare and unreleased material called, MOTHER OF MANKIND. Together, the 2 albums contain 39 songs and feature 2 full color booklets of liner notes, photos, and album credits. THE ALBUM AT AMAZON: bit.ly/bmkM4j

Tonight, February 23rd, Andrew will host a "Town Hall" style Q&A event at his own SANTOS PARTY HOUSE. The event SOLD OUT of all tickets quickly, as questions surrounding Andrew and his career has increased. The event is a chance for Andrew to make himself available to his fans, and do his best to address their thoughts.

Andrew will also be at this year's SOUTH BY SOUTHWEST festival, as well as headlining the entire 2010 WARPED TOUR. Complete dates and tour information will soon be announced on Andrew's official website: http://www.AndrewWK.com/performances.

In addition, the newest episodes of Andrew's CARTOON NETWORK TV show, "DESTROY BUILD DESTROY" begin airing the week of February 22nd. The new episodes feature Andrew running wild with Monster Trucks, WWE Wrestlers, and an amazing crew of kids, as they blow stuff up and then build with the wreckage.
