   About The Sanguinistas
Sanguinistas are a post-punk country garage band from Austin, TX. Membership includes Brit Jones (Stickpony), Lonesome Dave Fisher (The Swanktones), Cindy Toth (The Reivers), Shannon Rierson (The Golden Apples) and Thad Swiderski (The Wannabes). If you don't know the bands in the parentheses take our word for it - they all fucking rocked. Imagine how much Sanguinistas must rock to have these five people in the same band. That's over 150 combined years of gigging, recording and touring. Come catch us before one of us dies.

It was wonderful to see/hear you again. Let me know when you are ready for the Device to come down and record.

Miss you, my friend!

Ola Sanguinistas!!! Sorry I missed the Ram Jam. I have only a lame excuse like having to attend a baby shower and birthday party (at gunpoint) that day. Peer Pressure.
I'm absolutely sure y'all rocked out… so when’s the next show?? Peace! Amy

As our gov of TX would say (possibly about wallowing in self-pity?), "Why don't you just let us get on down the road?" And as my lovely Aunt Ann used to say, "Keep a stiff-upper lip and hang in there."

Lawrence was great, but it might save on gas to do a show closer to home. I'll have to do the math.

That might take a while, so in the meantime, let's work on that show.

That's quite hilarious. This floor, here, has been used a lot in the last couple of years or so (you know, the code of the road and all).
