Welcome. These are all our actual real live friends, fans, and bands we know and love. We don't have 800 porn star friends from LA, just 2. They are actual friends of mine, that I knew before they became porn stars. Counter enhancers are for pussies. If you need to believe that 40,000 people have been to some indie bands myspace site just to give them a listen, then we're not the band for you anyway.
Our new EP "re-issue" has arrived!! Just email us for info on getting one. It'll be on itunes soon. Meanwhile, go get "leftovers from south 2nd street" on itunes, and write us a friggin review. Anything you can't find here is on our real website.
Adam here hoping you can get away to check out this jam:
Alpha Transit is releasing a new live concert cd "Transit Comes Alive" , recorded right here in Milwaukee, and we're having a concert party to celebrate it.
Please join us Friday January 30th, 9:30pm at G Daddy's BBC (Upper Level)
2022 E. North Ave. Milwaukee, WI 53202 414-272-7263
Transit Comes Alive!, the newest addition to the Alpha Transit catalog, is the first of a two part series of releases recorded 100 percent live at the Milwaukee Ale House during the summer of 2008. The titles of these recordings pay tribute to the seemingly distant era when the record buying masses encouraged and supported their favorite groups extending and improvising on their songs in the live jam format. This recording and the soon to be released Made In Milwaukee showcase the group doing what they do best; steering the music through the maps of their unique compositions, fusing white knuckle improvisations with relentless grooves, and taking the entire audience along with them on the mind-boggling journey.

Yes, the year was 1977. I really wanted to be Ted Nugent. Not much has really changed, except now I can tear up Stranglehold! Hope all is well, we should go get coffee sometime.
