What's new?

Nov 7, 2014 hello everyone and happy Fall! After a short break we're back with new music and new shows, starting with Nov 22 at Cherrywood Coffee during the East Austin Studio Tour. For those that don't know, the East Austin Studio Tour is an event on Austin's East side in various locations featuring the original artwork of a variety of Austin artists. As part of the studio tour we will be featuring the art of our very own Gabriel during our show at Cherrywood. We play 5-7. Come on out, it's a cool coffee shop, just East of I35 on 38th Street, and one of our favorite places to play. Hope you can make it!

Fall 2013

Oct 13 - Hello everyone! It's been a long summer, we're back, haven't left actually. Working on dates for November and on into 2014. We'll be playing our debut show at Opa! on S. Lamar on Oct. 19. That will be a quiet acoustic duo show. We also want to extend a thanks to the recent clubs and venues that we've been playing, including the Gnarly Gar in Point Venture, TX, Moon River in Spicewood, a couple fun TB Open Stage nights at Poodle Dog, and Jim and Tinker's annual Virgo Gathering on Pitter Pat Lane. We had a great time doing that show and were happy to share the stage with other Austin notables David Grissom and Deane Rene. Thanks also to Robert Carter for joining us on bass this last year, we hope he'll be rejoining us soon. Also to our longtime drummer Jason Toll, let's keep on rockin'!! See ya at the gigs!!

Looking for a rhythm section

..ok so our drummer has informed us that he's moving on to do other things, which came as a bit of a shock, but that's just the way it is when you play music, as any musicians know.. so now we're looking for a new drummer or drummers who can fill in the gap.. we're also auditioning any bassists who are interested in playing with us.. we generally play several times a month, for pay and for no pay (although we prefer the pay), we do shows, benefits, events, etc.. plus t.v. and radio things pretty regularly, whenever they come up.. sooo, for any readers of this rather obscure blog who are players or know players who might be interested, our web addresses are - www.reverbnation.com/tombstonebullies - www.facebook.com/tombstonebullies - www.twitter.com/austinbullies - www.tombstonebullies.com - or please let us know at - info@tombstonebullies.com - thanks..
