Allister on Hiatus
Allister has gone on hiatus. Below is a statement from the band.
Before we left for this last Japanese tour in October, Tim got the news that he was going to become a father. We had the whole 3 months in Japan to discuss what would become of Allister, and in the end Tim made the responsible decision to start a job that wouldnâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢t take him out of the country for months at a time. He wanted to be home with his girlfriend during the pregnancy, and throughout the upbringing of their child. We had already confirmed a Japanese tour for March, and since Tim has already entered the work force, we have asked his brother Chris to join us overseas. We will be booking a show in Chicago, which for all intents and purposes will be billed as our last show. Iâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll post the info when it comes.
Allister has been trucking along for a good 10 years now, and in that time weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ve been fortunate enough to travel around the world playing music that we love. Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ve met so many amazing people, and I feel really fortunate to have been a part of this bandâ┚¬Ã‚¦ Before I get too sappy, I just want to say thanks to everyone who supported us over the years. Who knows what the future will hold, but for the time being this is just the beginning of a new chapterâ┚¬Ã‚¦
Scott Murphy and Allister
From the rubble of the Allister break up, Kyle and Scottie have started a new band called â┚¬Ã…”The Get Go.â┚¬? They have banned together with good friends Nick (x-Mest), Dan (x-Homegrown), and Chris (x-Showoff). Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re really excited about the songs weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ve been writing, and weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll be recording/posting demos in a few weeks. In the meantime, you can check us out at: myspace.com/thegetgorock.
We could use your support! Please come to the site and add us as a friend and be the first to hear our music once we get out of the studio!

Thrice Update
Thrice have updated the Alchemy Index.
Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re on our way back home. This entire trip has been amazing. The shows were awesome. Iâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ve missed playing live so muchâ┚¬Ã‚¦ itâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢s been way too long. We are all sunburnt and exhausted from the last few days spent in Perth. Teppei and I were talking about how the heat felt like when you stick your hand in an oven to when cooking food. One of the guys helping us out on the tour named â┚¬Ã…”Squasherâ┚¬? (big burly duder), told us that they say the ozone layer has a hole in it above Perth. I wouldnâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢t doubt it. I was wearing 30spf sunscreen and I got absolutely friedâ┚¬Ã‚¦ and fast! Hopefully this exhaustion will help us sleep on the long flight homeâ┚¬Ã‚¦ Blech! Something like 26 hours of travel time with this layover. Although this trip has been amazing, I canâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢t wait to get home and finish these records. Thank you to everyone who made it out to the shows and everyone who helped us along the way. Australia we love you and hope to be back soon.
