Update #2: STILL WAITING FOR RECORDS?

Posted on September 26

Yes, the first two records of this series have come out, actually long long ago. I'm still waiting on addresses from these people:

Kate Sachs
Matt Thompson
Natalie Hartman
Ryan Gore
Joshua Mach
Adam Marlowe
Ryan Harper
Jim Gardner
Matt Linbolm
Derek Fernald
Greta Smith
Mike McCullom
Al Grubola
Brandon Young
Adam Hedgespeth
Lyndsey Midstokke (package returned)

If your name is on this list, my records show that you have not received your 7"'s yet. Please email your address to liveandlearn68@yahoo.com and your records will ship  pronto.

To update on the rest of the series, the first two have sold okay and I'm going ahead with at least one more of the seven inches, which should ship around the holidays. If that sells decently, more in the series will come out. If not, refunds will be issued for the difference between what you ordered and what was actually recieved. Also, I realize it's been way too long since I've updated this and if any of you would rather have a refund than receive any of these at this point, drop me an email and let me know and I'll get started on paying you all back as soon as humanly possible.  

Update #1: FIRST TWO 7"'s COMING SOON!!!

Posted on September 29, 2010

Whew, it's been a wild few months for us here at Skull Alley. Sorry for the super delay on getting this project rolling, but the important thing is that we're getting the ball rolling finally! I'm sitting here in my living room listening to the test pressings for the first two live 7"'s that should come out in rapid succession in the next couple of weeks.

They sound absolutely amazing.

No seriously, Trip Barriger did an A+ job on the recording/mixing/mastering because he's kind of a wizard, Aardvark Mastering did a great job cutting it and plating it, and the pressing plant got it in my hands sounding better than when it left. Really, sometimes you have to remind yourself that they are a live recording because they sound so good ... fortunately there is occasional crowd applause to remind you.

So what now? Anyone who pledged to this project should email me at jamie@skullalley.net and give me your mailing address so that as soon as these puppies get back from the printer I can get them into your hands. If you are one of the people who pledged in the amount that entitles you to an awesome Skull Alley shirt, you should also let me know which size you'd like your shirt to be (note, we use tultex fashion fit t's which are similar to American Apparel in fit just to help you with sizing).

Thanks so much for all the support for this project, and more than that for all the patience while we slowly but surely have gotten this together whilst keeping the venue runing.
