The Vigilante BandIf you haven't heard of The Vigilante Band, don't feel ignorant, it only means you haven't been at the right place at the right time. The band has been in existence since 1975, and plays what is now referred to "Alternative Country" and Bluegrass, in the traditional style. The band was formed by members of the student body of New Mexico Tech in Socorro, New Mexico in 1975, and still makes semi-regular appearances around the Southwestern United States. The members of the band are pretty much spread out throughout the United States in their various jobs, which, when they get together, makes them a true Jam Band. More information on the History of The Vigilante Band, can be found by clicking on that hypertext, or by going to their web site. This show is presented with permission from the band, and with the help of madking, to whom we give thanks. The original material is copyright of The Vigilante Band, and the cover songs are copyright of the original authors. The original songs that I know of include Track 1 "Past The Point of Rescue, Track 6 "Lucky Lucky Me" (actually written for Prairie Fire), and the first part of track 8, "Short Song." Please respect the copyrights. This recording is from the CD "The Vigilante Band Live--Limited Area Tour 1999," which is available for a very reasonable price that includes shipping and handling, at the band's web site.
