Starting over again can be a pain. However looking at The Don Ramos Players with fresh eyes was enough to make them realise then when something does come to an end, you always have to look forward at the prospect of doing something in a different light. They have played in bands that have come and gone. They are John, Smittens, Lloyd and Adam. They are The Don Ramos Players. What was originally going to start out as a solo project soon turned into a proper band. They draw influences from bands such as Hot Water Music, The Lawrence Arms, Small Brown Bike, The Loved Ones to name a few. They look at this band as taking things back to when being in a band was fun. To go out on tour and meet new faces, play shows in towns they've never been to before, to write new songs with open minds. This is not technical, it's just a group of friends playing straight forward songs. No messing about. If you like it, then thats good. If you don't, then you don't. They can live with that. Announced they will be calling it a day in September 2011 after six years playing together. Read more on Last.fm.
