MUST-SEE: Breakfast 250 Article
« on: December 07, 2008, 09:52:50 am »
Hey everyone.  I published an article about why I see the band so much and what it has meant to me.  If you\'re reading this post, I\'m sure you can relate.  Feel free to forward this to your friends and family who don\'t understand why you do it, it should help :)  I feel that this is one of the best pieces I ever wrote for the band.  Enjoy!

great job wolf, must have been hard to encapsulate all of that in so few words. were you limited by the publisher?

completely forgot about that butterfield pic. man, those were fun, fun shows.

Thanks everyone.  Paul, I was not under a word limit, but I do believe in the elegance of brevity.  I could have easily gone off for 2,500 words but I don\'t think non Breakfast fans would stay tuned for that long.  Also, I delivered this piece as a 5-7 minute speech at my speaking club (Toastmasters) on Wednesday, so I wrote it to fit that space.  Which was a very good thing, because otherwise I might have gone off for 2,500-5,000 words where 850 would suffice.

BTW I just added most of those Butterfield pics to Facebook and they\'ve been getting some ser attention!

Very nice work, Seth.  I can especially relate to your journey since we both started it on the same night in November 1999 @ Butterfield.

Does Dave Peck still have that "Just Bring it" shirt?
