Ok, The Swindles latest newsletter is kinda long, so I'm just gonna piece together the main bits:
Thursday at Scenic Loop Cafe
It's an early show this Thursday at the Scenic Loop Cafe (7:00PM) and this one will be just Joe and Uncle Mitchy all by their lonesome. It will be a nice chance for Joe to tell Uncle Mitchy all about his miniature vacation that seemed to bring all the music in Alamo town to a standstill. It's always nice to catch up on things while being heckled from the crowd to "Play something you know."
Ok, so there aren't many hecklers at Scenic Loop, I am a liar. There is however good food and a chance to hear Webb y Reyes (that really doesn't work) on a nice deck with good food and fancy libations.
Turbo 350 at the Limelight with us on Friday!
This Friday night at the Limelight is gonna be a good one with 350 Turbo starting the night off. Just look at them! My God! How could you not show up!?! If you haven't made it out to the Limelight yet you are missing out. It is a great place to hear a band and the 350's are gonna tear it up!
New Swindles CD?
Your dreams have become our nightmares as we slowly come to fruition on 2 separate projects. The first one is called Last Band At Taco Land and will have 1 cd with about 12 or so cuts straight from the Taco Land stage. We recorded this about 5 years ago and it sounds great. Included with the cd will be a DVD with all sorts of Taco Land memorabilia, a live show and about 30 minutes of little Sarah running around Taco Land talking with everybody!
The second project we have just finished mixing and mastering which means the music part is done. I think it might be called "The Lonely Kind" It's only been a year and a half of worky worky! Very twangy! Very Country! You will either love it or hate I suppose! Just as long as we get a reaction, I'm happy! Our good friend Mike Karshis is in the midst of wrapping that one up and you will be hearing it soon.
