Legendary instrumental rockers Don Caballero, whose latest record World Class Listening Problem was released earlier this year through Relapse, are to tour Europe later this year.
My, today's been quite the day for tour news, has it not?
The band begins its European jaunt on Halloween, arriving in Britain on November 25. They've not visited continental shores for some seven years. Drummer Damon Che remarked: “Quite honestly and simply, you won’t get this anywhere else.”
Best go then, yes...

i saw a gig advertised for the luminaire not that long ago...
but i may be wrong.
they played Bardens in May
or maybe I imagined it.
Ha ha!
Engine rooms!
you didn't
imagine it, they did play. So that line about them not visting for 7 years previous, is bollocks, innit?

They're better than Death Cab
It's DON Cab. How can it not be better?!

drummer still an arrogant prick then.....
Pity they're dull now
some of the early stuff is great. The current album is yaaaaaawn. Drummer's the only original member, right? It shows.
yep, that's right
The Cokemachineglow review of their new album said much the same:
