A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Official Spinto Band thread.


Two questions, Sam.

Question the first: When's that new CD coming out for us to purchase?



Question the second: When are you touring to the west coast again?
Sub Question! When are you coming back to Vancouver?




I realized that we didn't treat you guys with a proper Vancouver welcome last time. So maybe next time we should treat you to true Vancouver (see: Asian) culture by taking the band out for sushi and bubble tea.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

I wholly endorse this thread and the questions asked therein.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Question One: Unfortunately, I still don't really know...My best guess at this time though is in the realm of August/September...Late Summer, early Fall basically...If it's not out by then, well, I'll be pissed, but if you haven't already checked out the Summer Grof video on youtube, then do that because that's a new song at least!

Question Two: You can probably refer to my answer to question one because we probably won't be doing a full scale bi-coastal tour until the new album comes out because we've toured enough on one album and people start to get bored. That said, I will surely take you up on your "bubble tea" and your "sushi."

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

when you coming to Toronto Germy?

Edit: The store on your website doesn't work by the way...gives me a 404.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

That technically could be sooner because Toronto is a lot closer to us than Vancouver, so possibly in May/June/July time period.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Once again Germy drops into NYC and I get less than a day's notice. :(

Also why is there no link to GT on the Spinto Band forums. :p

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

there is a link to GT on wikipedia under spinto band :) LINK

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Don't forget to tell me when you come to Dutchland again. :)

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Hahaha, yeah, I watch the spinto wikipedia space, and I remember seeing Gamemaster slipping that in.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Oh awsome, I see on your tour schedule you playing on Austin City Limits! That does mean it will air on television, right?

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Germy's the keyboard player. I guess he may play guitar too?

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Oh man, Samwise.

That new tune is pretty sweet.

Is there some mp3 love so I can listen on the go?

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

What? New song? Link please?

If you get it Dylan you have to hook Dylan up.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Damn it...Well, I guess it was bound to happen...Did not realy want it to, but oh well...

As for Austin City Limits, we played on the stage but it was part of SXSW and just a party and wasn't filmed, so we won't be on that...

Also, the web store is busted. Somebody hacked it about 3 months into its existence and we haven't gotten it back live again..Hopefully we can sort it out when the new album gets closer to being done.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

I won't download your album this time, I'll buy it. :)

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Shh, you're not supposed to actually SAY you downloaded an album.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

He already knows. ;) And I didn't say that I downloaded their last album, did I? :)

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

At this point in our career, I don't really mind people downloading our album that much. Sure, it feels a little better when we get our statement back from our label and we can say, "oh, we sold X amount of records", but as long as people like it and tell their friends to like it, etc. it's all good. Chances are those same people who download the record may come out to a show and buy a t-shirt or something so maybe it evens out.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Just so you know Germy, my girlfriend really digs your band's songs. I bought her Nice and Nicely Done because it sounded like something she would enjoy and indeed it was.

It's not exactly what I look for in the realm of music, but that's what different tastes are for.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Hey Germy, when would you know the dates for Toronto? your website only has road dates until the end of this month...

also, would the show include backstage passes? :D

would be nice to meet yet another member of GT.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

you know... now that i am an adult, i enjoy spinto.

thank you for the sweet tuneage.

xoxo- fangirl #1

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

We don't have any dates actually scheduled for Toronto, I just think we might play there sometime within the next few months. Since I don't know too many other people in Toronto, I can maybe put you on a guest list for a show so you could get in for free. Depending on the venue, maybe backstage passes, but some venues don't even have a back stage!

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

sweet, sweet...just let us know in advance so we can free our schedules :)

by "we" i mean my girl and myself.

she likes your music too...but thinks your videos are gay (no offense to any gay people...I'm just quoting my girl) lol...tbh i gotta agree...they're so random. but we do like your music.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Well, at least you are honest, I guess...I think about 65% of youtube would probably would agree. We got called "Fag boys" about 1000 times for the "Brown Boxes" video, but Youtube comments bring out some of the most atrocious emotions in human society, so I don't take it too seriously. I stand by all of them though (with the exception of one, maybe) and think they are either funny or downright brilliant, but hey, I'm a bit biased.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

they are definitely well done...i just think they're really random...especially the brown boxes video...it's like WTF?! lmao

The heads pop off your bodies and fly to blow up the boxazord and then for some reason your bodies disappear and only your heads are left...it's...like...whoa man...if you know what i mean.....hmm...maybe i should smoke up a little and watch your guys videos :D

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

I love your videos. :D

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Yeah, I've always liked the videos.


Also, Happydude: referring to things you don't like as "gay" doesn't really seem all that intelligent; no offense to you or your girlfriend.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Go to Miami during the summer... or Boston anytime after September 1st? :(

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

Remember the time when 'gay' just meant merry, happy, fun? That's what those videos are.

Re: A thread for matters Spintonic
 

i agree....hence why i said that it wasn't ME who said it :p
