Brief
Summary of the Last 18 Years (Or, What Have
The Reivers Been Up To Since They Broke Up in 1991?):
All the
band members, to some degree, have been involved in music
since the band called it quits originally. John Croslin, especially,
has stayed in the music world as a very prolific producer
and engineer and also co-founded a band called Fire Marshals
of Bethlehem. Cindy Toth has played in a variety of Austin
bands, while Kim Longacre and Garrett Williams have only sporadically
recorded over the years. More detail is available in the members'
individual discographies on this site:
-John Croslin
-Kim Longacre
-Cindy Toth
-Garrett Williams
In 2001
Kim, Cindy, and Garrett played together as part of the ad-hoc
band 86'd at Austin's SXSW music conference (see News
Archive Pre-2002). The Reivers fully reunited for a performance
at John Croslin's 2002 wedding (see News
Archive 2002). The albums Saturday and End of the Day
were remastered and rereleased in 2002 with bonus tracks and
new liner notes (News
2002-2003). In February of 2008 the band reunited for
2 sold out shows in Austin and have performed occasionally
since, before adding a keyboard player (Eric Friend) and changing
their name for a second time in August of that year - this
time to Right Or Happy.

About
The Website:
This website
was founded in April 1998. It's an unofficial website, though
the band members are aware of it and are appreciative. It
serves mainly as an archive of information about Zeitgeist,
The Reivers, and Right Or Happy and a place for news on the
musical activities of the individual band members. There is
an announcement list at Yahoogroups called StarTelegram
that is used to notify of significant updates to the website
and any other significant Reivers-related news. (The little
"Updates" link up on the top right of this page
will also tell of any website updates). There is also a Reivers
discussion list at Yahoogroups called theReivers.
