Just a little insight and perspective, and only because we love you

Okay, okay, there's a lot of rumors and therefore assumptions about what's been going on for us.
Yes, we've parted ways with a few of our members, and for the most part, they will be missed. Sometimes, it's important to reorder things, and move the ball forward, and blah blah, you know, blah, insert relevant metaphor here.
Needless to say, Spin Alley ain't 'bout to drop off the block, and as a matter of fact, we are writing new material, lots and lots of new material, and working on acoustic sets that will be nice and intimate, just like your mamma likes it, coming soon to your city, town, parish, village... there will be no escape.  Of course, we will continue our weekly forays into the wild unknown; the loud, pumping, vibrant electric sets that you've grown to love, always in a city near you.
Why? you might query...
Who's doing what now adays? you might ponder...
Are my children safe? might be your conundrum...
How can i get ahold of this fine product?

And as your mother was known to scream, in the deepest throes of passion "Boom goes the dynamite":
........

Spin Alley is proud to announce that we are now part of a national mix cd showcasing many up and coming artists who easily will be music's future.  The cd is doing well and it is rumored that it will be breaking into the charts soon!  We need our fans to support this effort.  Spin Alley has always had some of the illest support out of the ATX.  San Antonio is following suit with the air play on 99.5 and amazing friend support.  This is def a collector's item.  This album is going to do big things, and go far.  We need you to get the word out and to pick this up so we can solidify a strong hold at a national base.  Lets show these other bands whats up! Thank you for coming out and supporting us on the Dirty Money Tour. Thank you for always supporting Spin Alley!

We are pleased to announce our first tour, the Dirty Money Tour, is in full effect.  Come check the dates, we wanna come meet all you beautiful people when we're in your area, have a beer or five, crash on your couches, etc... So, hit us up if we're in your area , let us know of cool places to kick it, grab a bite to eat, or whatever.
We need to fill a few last minute slots, so if anyone out there in Illinois, Missouri, or Kansas has some friends we can play with, or can help hook us up, get back to us asap and lets make something happen!
Peace, Love and Mad respect
Spin Alley Crew

"Best of" conducted by Austin360.com, The Austin American Statesman, but determined by all you lovely people, and as far as we're concerned, you're the best fans in the whole world, we love ya!

Space is the final frontier. Spin Alley is in talks with NASA in an effort to be one of the first bands to tour the universe starting with the Moon and Mars. First, we need to prove that we can sell records on earth. Our label Rat Pak records has sealed a deal to make this happen only if we can prove that we can move units online. Help us in our effort to be one of the top selling artist on our label. We need you to forward this link and get those who have not had a chance to buy the record "Victims" on our Rat Pak records website. Its fun and easy. Here is the link, make sure to please purchase and support!

Okay, so I have to get the thanks out of the way before we really get into the whole thing. And yeah, I know it's been like 3 weeks since, but I had to give it a minute before I could get on here and really lay it down.  So much to process, you know what I mean?

First and foremost, I would like to take the opportunity to thank the bands that played our CD release show, Zlam Dunk, Downsiid, and Driver F.  Every single one of those dudes worked their asses off, played like gods, and made the show soooooooo epic.  If you haven't heard these guys, go online (after you read this) and check them out, it's well worth your time, these guys are all rock stars.

Secondly, thanks to all of you who came, even if you didn't get in, you were felt, and damn, we really appreciate you all showing so much love! 
 
Okay, so, for those of you who didn't know, or haven't figured it out yet, the CD release show at Stubb's was a SOLD OUT evening, and thanks to everyone, a really great night all around.  We made a lot of new friends, and if that wasn't good enough, were offered a deal with an indie label.  When that is all finalized, we'll let you know with whom and what's going to be happening as a result. Anyway, we're looking forward to a very exciting New Year with all the possibilities in store and all of the great shows we have lined up. Make sure to keep checking in from time to time and stay up to date with all the exciting Spin Alley news.
So, have you gotten your copy of "Victims" yet? No worries, you can buy it online soon, like within a week, we promise.
We've also got some awesome video of the Release evening and will be posting it here soon, much to our, and soon, your delight. 
Also, be on the lookout for our upcoming Webisodes entitled "Spin Your House," a visual documentation of our tour adventures and the houses that we'll be "Spinning" out along the way.  If you'd like to be on the show, let us know, it's kind of like "Pimp Your Ride," but way cooler, way more independent, and a lot more fun.

Much Love and Mad respect
Spin Alley Crew
