The Reel Banditos: Always on the run, hotter than hell!
Welcome to a Reel Bandito hideout. These dudes have been on the run since 2001 when they stole Sinatras “Nude Sessions” tape reel. As you can imagine, FBI, CIA, KGB, the Mafia and Fidel Castro were not amused and hired hitman “Francisco Scaramanga” to deal with the Banditos. Luckily Michael Cain droped the boys a hint, giving them just enough time to jump out of the toilet window of the CN-Tower. Since then they have been fugative.

Story behind the song
In the early morning hours of the Vietnamese lunar New Year celebrations in 1968 (31.01.1968) the North Vietnamese forces (Vietcong) began what is now widely know as the “TET Offensive" in many parts of the country, including Saigon. This was a turning point in the conflict, as public opinion in America turned against the war. It would not end until 1975. The Reel Banditos have decided to release an album titled “Indochina" that revolves around the subject of the “Vietnam War". Each song will deal with a particular aspect of the conflict and leave it to the listener's imagination to come to their own conclusions. “It's a sort of virtual score to a film that exists in people''s minds." says Nesto, the producer of the album. Why Vietnam? Nesto: “Well, if you look at what's happening in Iraq now you can't help but think that nothing much has changed and that sadly nothing was learnt by the current U.S. administration. This album is about war in general and the tragedy, mayhem and madness it invokes." The Reel Banditos have released a free track called “Viet Nam" to promote their forthcoming album “Indochina" which will be available in Oktober 2008
