Action Beat
 

They sound a lot like one of our favorite bands. In a good way!

You can listen to their latest output, The Noise Band From Bletchley, on http://3voor12.vpro.nl/luisterpaal/ (at least for some time)

Yeah, i'm going to see them tonight. I hadn't heard of them before last week but they sound good.

excellent band live, need more...

yes yes yes
saw them last week and they were great!

yeah a beercan, I am instantly hooked...

when i saw them they only had two drummers and 3 or 4 guitarists untill one of their amps blew up then they took over on the drums too! they were playing each others guitars with beercans/drumsticks, i nearly got hit by their guitar. great fun band!

wil check em next.
seems to be a good day today, at least new band-wise

They are assholes.

A friend of mine and me (basically just a friend of mine) tried to book them for a small festival we were organizing. In the beginning everything went fine and they confirmed to play.
Then after a few weeks it turned out that we didn't have as much money as we expected and we had, them being the most expensive band because they were about 8 dudes, cancell them.

Then this one dude of them who runs their myspace started to shit-post insults all over myspace, saying that we had no idea of what DIY is about and that we're a bunch of pricks for cancelling them. He also wrote something like "Mr.Please play at my festival in Austria" ruined their whole tour plan, because they set up all their German tour dates just because of the festival in Austria.

Simply not true

They had one date in Vienna (Austria) and some German dates afterwards long time before we asked them to play.
I mean, sure, it's annoying to get a gig cancelled when you're planning to tour but come on...

bunch of Branca Jr wannabes



sorry for my gramma, i just woke up and my brain is still in alpha mode

Don Vito are fun to see live

Don Vito are fucking incredible - wish i could see them play again

Don Vito are amazing, yes.
I find Action beat too messy to my taste.

They're both great live, I thought.

(great post count greedrex!)
