Is Passing Strangers or File 13 still around?..lol
Does anybody know of any good 80s cover bands here in San Antonio? I'd even be interested in any in Austin, assuming they'd travel this far for a paying gig.

How much is the pay? I know of a couple up here.
I think the best 80s band I've seen from down there is The Max, except the lead singer's voice is a little wrong for some of those tunes.
A friend of mine is in a band called AlterEgo. They don't confine themselves to the 80's, but they might be able to pull off a gig of just 80's tunes.
Survivor.
Eye of the Tiger.
There's a group out of Laredo called " The Jolly Rogers " very good selection of 70's 80's and even some 90's......
The unique thing about this band, the lead singer is BLIND........
More 80s pop. This is for an event next February. I'm just doing some research now to see what's available in town. I found a band in Houston that looks cool, but I'd like to support a local band if possible.
Jawbreaker has male and female vocals. They're pretty good.
papawood. they are local.
American Sideshow is Lindsays brothers band, they play to some pretty big shows in Austin and San Antonio.
call me and I can get you in touch with the right people
I graduated high school with both John and Alton from Passing Strangers.
Odd that Alton went onto playing "New Wave" music when he was big on bands like Iron Maiden.
Will there be acid wash involved?
The biggest 80's cover band in Austin is the Spazmatics. They pack out Cedar Street every week.
Cool - I checked out their web site and they appear to be what we're looking for. The other band I found was Molly & The Ringwalds out of Houston.
Yeah, they are the up here.
Molly & The Ringwalds![]()
Molly and The Ringwalds is possibly one of the worst bands I have ever seen in my life. They can't play their instruments and can't sing.
And they may cost too much to bring from Houston - I'll check out the Spazmatics.
hey SC - the spaz's play here in Houston every Thursday, I think my GF and I will head to see them one day and I'll let you know what they're like? To confirm what the others say.
The spazmatics are so in cool, and very fun. I highly suggest you get them - I'll post some pictures and I have videos of it. Can't wait to go again.
What about just calling up Erasure, Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, Morrissey, Devo & have Dio Ramone headline?
