Re: Cereal Wars
Chris, Your knowledge of The Pistoleros astounds me. Your well versed response on this subject had me in awe. The genuine care and precision you wrote with moved me to tears. WaitI might be changing my mind about you and might start to like you. Na! Does Norm still fart? Don't trust whitey! Lord loves a working man! The white man still beating me down in Memphis.

Pistoleros are alive and well down here in Arizonathey actually have a self produced cd "Mistaken For Granted" released locally under their original name "The Chimeras". They eventually signed with Hollywood Records after the management change. They had to change the name of the band prior to the national release after an Irish band of the same name raised a little stink. They were recenty dropped from Hollywood. They have penned a publishing deal with EMI and are currently looking for a label while working day jobs and playing LOTS around the Phoenix metro area. Doug Hopkins, who was, for the most part, the musical force behind Gin Blossoms started the band with Mark and Lawrence Zubia after he was fired from Gin Blossoms (just prior to the release of Gin Blossoms first record). Doug penned "My Guardian Angel". Sadly, Doug left the band after a few short months and died before the band cut the self produced record. Ahhh yeah...gotta love this biz Livin' the Dream, Chris House Ignitors

Pistoleros - was RE: Cereal Wars
Morgan - Not bad if you like the Gin Blossoms. The Pistoleros have one album (that I know of) called _Hang On to Nothing_. Fans of the late Doug Hopkins (GBs guitarist, kicked out, killed himself) - like myself - will enjoy their cover of his "My Guardian Angel". Think of the GBs, but with TexMex flavoring, or Jolene's _In the Gloaming_. All similarly appealing guitar rock.
