from The Swindles:
Hey everybody! Uncle Mitchy and the Swindles here to let you know that yes, you HAVE been missing us and YES, you are in need of a Swindles fix! We are also displeased to announce that you are sadly behind in your consumption of an old friend. Call him what you will.. booze, canned heat, cocktails, ethanol, firewater, hard stuff, hootch, intoxicant, liquor, methanol, moonshine, oil, palliative, red-eye, rotgut, sauce, spirits, tipple, toddy, that demon alcohol.. just remember he misses you! So bring your little pink liver to the river, order a dialysis machine and pack up the kids for the Humble Time Freakin' Festival. It has been a goal of ours to play a gig where someone would actually be letting their freak flag fly and this might be the day our dreams come to fruition. I hope you get to be there with us this Saturday at the Goodtime Campground, 9300 River Road, New Braunfels, Texas, just down stream from the 3rd River Crossing. If you need to call them: 830-964-3790.
New Record On The Horizon!
We are currently working on a few albums and hope to have them out soon. One is a live Taco Land show which will also feature a DVD from various evenings. If you have any footage you want included please contact us. Also on the horizon is a new studio album that we have been working with Ronnie Morales on for the last 6 months. Release date should be around early 2008. It features all our favorite San Antonio-Soul-Country Swindle material that we don't always get to play live. We are also going into the 3rd pressing of "Drunk For Your Amusement" which means we have lost, given away, and sold over 4000 copies of that cd. Not bad for a little bitty band from San Antonio with no nothing about nothing going for them. Also available soon will be an official version of the "Live New Years Day" bootleg cd. You won't have to wait for Uncle Mitchy to burn a cd for you any more.
