The Vendettas Sell Out!


Our Next Show:  The Chowder Pot

104 3rd St
Greenport, NY 11944-1610
(631) 477-1345




We are celebrating our first sold out show!  Our performance at the Roger's Beach Pavillion was completely sold out of all 130 tickets two weeks before the show date. We were happy to be a part of the Summer concert series sponsored by the Westhampton Free Library and owe a big "Thank You" to Nola Thacker and Leslie Millrod who brought us on board. 

We were also fortunate to have Adam Tese join us for the beach show. We met him at the Elvis Tribute Show last Winter, he is a fine Rock and Roll sax player and a hell of a nice guy. Hopefully we will see him on some of our shows in the future. Speaking of the future, our next show is a new venue for us: The Chowder Pot in Greenport, NY.  I hear the food i
s great and we will find out for sure this
 Saturday, July 18th at 7:00 PM.

Private Party and Guest Stars
OK "star" is such a subjective term, but we did get to play with some other fine musicians at a private Fourth of July party held by a local brewer.  We had Pat Rotolo, the "Adam Clayton Guy" from the excellent tribute band 2U, and we had Andrew Bollerman the ferocious Long Island Punk band, The Rebel Dead, sitting in on drums, such as they are. Lenny's truncated drum set can be disorienting to other drummers, but Andrew persevered.
     As I have said before, we love playing private parties, we get a crowd that is into the music, that gets what we are doing, and will dance. "How do I get The Vendettas to play my private engagement?" you might ask.  Drop us a line right here, we'll play at you freaking house!

I Gotta Get a New Shirt!






Thanks to all of the people who came to see the show at Darin's in Miller Place this past Saturday. And a special thanks to the folks from Longwood Public Library who came down to shake it up. There was a special Bo Diddley song for them and the other librarians who showed up.  There was a great turn out, it was good to see people dancing. We had a Winters worth of Kierkegaardian angst to blow off, and so we did with a new set. 

We will be back at Darin's for three more dates this Fall including a Halloween show!

Look for us June 26th at Fatty Beltbuckles in Rocky Point

Summer Tour!


It is a tour in as much as we leave our homes to go somewhere else to play music. It is exciting for us because we have some new local venues and we hope you will come to every single one, buy lots of drinks (but not too many) and dance a whole lot. This helps us keep the gig. You can also expect a new show with new songs (for us) and new shoes! 

Come down and hear us at Fatty Belt Buckles in Rocky Point, Darin's in Miller Place and The Chowder Pot in Greenport!

You will also notice that we have some private parties scheduled. These are some of our favorite shows to do, backyard parties, house parties, pool parties, weddings! Don't feel left out. Have The Vendettas at your next shindig!  Don't think you can't afford us, you can! Don't think we will eat all of your food, we won't. Don't think we will want to sleep over, we have homes!

Getting Ready for Summer!






















 Well it has been a while since we have posted. We did finally go into the studio (Suffolk Recording in
 Patchouge, NY) and were really lucky to
wrangle Void as our engineer and producer. Unfortunately for us, Void got picked up as engineer for the Ryan Star tour so we didn't get to finish our
 mixes. We did however do enough to start working the clubs with a new recording.



 What we have so far sounds great and Chin will be posting some of the new stuff on our main page. We picked tunes that were a much more accessible the casual fan, rather than appealing to the hardcore Rockabilly fan like our last disc. If all works out, we will combine the two sessions to make one full length disc, which we will then make copies of and put in the basement to avoid a lawsuit. 

  We have  a few shows coming up, but as always, let us know if there is a venue in your town you want us to play. Don't forget we love a house party!
