9.24.05 thanks to everyone who came to the blind pig last night (and also to the people who waited outside and didn't make it in... apologies). but good times.
9.29.05 Tally Hall on WQKL Ann Arbor - 107.1 Monday between 10pm and 12am on their "New Music Monday" segment.
9.29.05 finally we squeaked out a NEW MOVIE. if you've ever wondered what labors are associated with recording an album, you should watch this using your eyes.
10.11.05 new website feature added: PICTURES. these are collections of colored pixels that, when viewed from far away, seem to resemble familiar people and places. DON'T BE FOOLED, THOUGH. these are only REPLICAS, and you cannot actually touch ROSS.

(to see said pics, click on media, then pics, then "change album" to change the album (clearly)).

10.12.05 at long last, the FORUM is live (misc-->forum)! feel free to join and chat away.
10.14.05 there will be no new songs tomorrow (saturday). to make it up to you, we will be posting TWO new tracks from MMMM next week. apologies and stay tuned...

10.18.05 MMMM has been added to our distributor's (Teacher's Discovery) computer system! Now, ordering is all automated, sexy and more comfortable for those who were a bit nervous before. So head to the store, sexily, to pre-order Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum.

Check out the "events" page for the first batch of tour dates. PLEASE NOTE: the gaps in the schedule will be filled in over the coming days, so stay tuned for additional cities (maybe YOURS!).

11.24.05 if you're reading this, it means tallyhall.com's move to a new server is complete, and you're seeing us in our brand-spanking new home. it spanks brands. no really.

no change is without a few growing pains, so please bear with us as we get everything back to their usual levels of spiffyness and beyond this afternoon.

12.21.05 Check out a cool review of M4 from the Detroit Free Press: (This part was edited to "Good Times:" sometime after 01.02.06 and before 01.27.06) "Tally Hall is Marvelous." Strangely, as I just found out, if you search for "Tally Hall" on the Free Press site, this is the second result: "Murders in City Likely to Match 2004 Totals."
1.06.06 A handful of new tour dates have been added to the EVENTS page. more will be coming in the next few days, so stick around.
1.06.06 Tonight's show at the Blind Pig is SOLD OUT, so if you don't have tickets, we're very sorry. There is a very limited number (10) of tickets available at the door, first come first serve, so if you want to get there very early, you might be able to get in. See you tonight.

High Noon, FREE, all ages, and you can even buy a camp-stove as well! (details)
1.30.06 Small's show added on February 9th! Check here for more info.
1.31.06 We've gotten a lot of inquiries regarding the cancelled Magic Bag show, so just for the record, the venue removed us from the bill due to an unfortunate miscommunication. There will be plenty of Michigan shows coming up, so no worries. On that note, we'd like to announce that on April 8 we'll be returning to the Blind Pig to premiere new material. Stay tuned...
1.31.06 We were wondering why for a couple of months e-mails seemed so slow, but we just found out that any mail sent via the form on our website during most of December and January did not reach us. We just received 80-pages of e-mails (1000s of emails) in a large bulk. We're really sorry. We'll be sorting through it in the next few days and responding to as much as possible. So if you wrote to us and didn't hear back, ...Our webmaster has been scolded severely (with a stick).

To everyone who worked on this video, & all those who submitted your artwork: thank you for the effort & thought you put into this project. Words are insufficient to express our gratitude. We've posted the ampersands here for your viewing pleasure.

"NEW"S: We are excited to inform you of a brand new just-in-time-for-Halloween "Turn the Lights Off" music video, created by the one-and-only Drew Mokris of spinnerdisc.com! (With help from Sean Donnelly of "Ruler of Everything" music video fame!)
