Here\'s the link:

http://www.facebook.com/groups/271183722902995/?id=271186496236051¬if_t=group_activity

Some of us may not know each other by face or by .info or vice versa or the other way around and possibly in other directions as well?

anyway, there it is

....

I created this group, as most of us know The Breakfast is probably taking some kind of hiatus after the Freakout. I reckon we should have a group and maintain our solidarity. There\'s a lot of other good music going on and it would be cool to get together with you and see some other good stuff in the meantime. And when The Breakfast returns let\'s give them the warmest welcome possible!

Most of all, I\'m just grateful to have met these wonderful souls.

I suggest putting together a Breakfast copy band to play The Breakfast music for us
whenever we want. Any musicians in mind for the job?

I used to have a band and we played Escher\'s Etchings Part 4 for a couple of shows..

I bet a bunch of their songs are fun as hell to play (and probably hard as hell to play also). But, yeah.. :lol:

Thanks for setting it up, Tuna.  I\'m liking the cover band idea.

Does anyone know what\'s the longest stretch the band has gone today without playing a show?

.info is one of the all-time great message boards.. certainly hope it doesn\'t go anywhere.


The Facebook group is in no way intended to replace or substitute for .info, although it does have some other purposes:

- good way to share events and reach more people at once
- not everyone has a .info account and some people just aren\'t into the whole message board thing but are always on facebook anyway

and most importantly,

- it\'s a form of peaceful protest regarding the hiatus that will hopefully be noticeable to the band

thebreakfast.info is currently registered through sept.2012. I would imagine if dave didn\'t want to renew he would give me the opportunity to take possession of the domain name.

By the way just an FYI but Dave still does poke in from time to time and do a little maintenance when needed.

Seeing as the site doesn\'t cost me anything, as long as that continues this site will be active. I have no plans to shut it down.

The Breakfast is still a very viable force in the music world.
A force which I hope will be kept alive. They are irreplaceable for our musical needs.
Let\'s keep the wooping & hollering up everyone, because that\'s just what we do!

Nobody is saying they arent.....
But if you folks cant see the hiatus as a healthy break for these guys, then you are bunch of selfish crazy fools.......half the band is involved with a fresh and thriving project that NEEDS focus and dedication.....GRRRRRR!!!!!! this whole fucking argument pisses me off so much, because I love the fucking breakfast and every fucking member that was ever a part of the band and all of you fucks......but REALLY, if you cant see that a hiatus is long over due, than you are blind........

I never said a hiatus was a bad thing! Yay for the hiatus!
Just let\'s not drop our Breakfast fan club rattle. People wander off from a 12 yr. old bands
hard work because they think it\'s all over.
The Bonz has a Breakfest 3 in the works, so let\'s all stick together and keep The Breakfast vibe alive!
I love Kung Fu also & I really want that incredible band to send shockwaves around the music world!
Glad we\'re all still picking on each other, that means nothing has changed!

I hope to see .info last for as long as possible. I will visit here as for as long as I possibly can. I\'m really sad that the band is taking a hiatus but I understand and can only hope that this is the right move for everyone involved and that they will one day rise triumphant.

I don\'t even think a more convenient keyboard player can change this situation.  the breakfast have been in the red no matter who was tickling the ivories if anybody at all.  as much as i love their music more than any other band, they were due for a hiatus 4 years ago when ron left.  the fact they stuck around this long is a testament to how much they love the music and the fans as well.  this is a bittersweet time, but when they\'re cool to start playing around again, i\'ll be ready and waiting.  there\'s no other band that gets me off more consistently than the breakfast and i doubt there ever will be.  good luck to all 4 and their endeavors in the meantime.  show me the way to d\'angeldoo tour.

I am.

Not being negative just real.

Fun to listen to, great tunes, sure. That will never go away. But they are not a force in the industry and are not on track to do anything more than an ocassional reunion show for long term hardcore fans.

Just how it is. Hopefully they find success in their new projects because obviously they are all great musicians and great guys who have been doing this for a long time and are over due for  some success.

Ok let\'s get the record straight here,
I have Expressed interest to the guys after my comeback  that I was willing to do short trips out to other states.
It just wasn\'t in the cards so we did what we had to.
The fact is that the breakfast has worked theyr(our) asses off for 13 years( minus two for me) INCLUDING MULTIBLE U.S. TOURS..
The band is tired, broke and needs a break.
Kung Fu is going to hold the torch for a while or maybe longer. Let\'s see what happens with that.
I know it\'s easy to just blame the keyboard player but your just not seeing the big picture.
Try working a job for free for just a week. We did it for years!!!
So please keep the wise cracks to yourselves..
We,v enjoyed sharing mutual love with you all for all the while and will never forget the good times.
I look forward to rocking out for you in the future with TB or whoever...peace

He\'s the only one that lasted...  Think about it:

- Jordan went from \'98-\'06 and then from \'08-present
- Oestreicher lasted a little more than a year
- Stoops sat in for one show and never officially joined

It\'s not anyone\'s fault that TB never really took off...  It\'s so damn hard to make it in the industry and only a fraction of all bands actually live comfortably on their music...  All of these guys are uber talented and I\'m including Ron in that as well...  It\'s not a knock on them that it didn\'t happen, it just wasn\'t the right time and place...

i love jordan personally and respect everything he as done for the band that goes without saying.  i was told from a viable source that part of the reason the hiatus is happening is because there is no option to tour.  i guess i shouldnt have posted that, was just trying to vent a little bit.

that would only be the case if the lost city of atlantis rose from the sea and the whole world found out it was actually called Blubladon.....and there were statues of Tim Palmieri erected in the square of this lost city from thousands of years ago.......so there is a chance, but its not really that good a one....

If The Breakfast plays a few northeast shows a year that\'s good with me.
Kinda like the Stoops with RAQ. Touring takes money, a big shot booking agent & promoter.
The Breakfast just never seems to get that. Kung Fu may be breaking that spell.
The bezerk made a jab at The Branch which was in bad taste.
To blame that warm, kind soul for putting a stop to The Breakfast because he made touring not possible just makes the bezerk a hoo haa ass middle aged burnout! The reasons are a bit more complex.
I\'ve found many new and exciting things for me to do now that The Breakfast is taking a hiatus.
I\'ll be starting a middle aged hoo haa ass cheerleading club.  
We will be going around and rooting for middle aged hoo haa ass jam bands.
