it\'s a laugh that they are not nominated.

I bet they sweep if we get the word out!

GRAND BAND SLAM VOTING

I voted for us where appropriate.  I\'d like to think that The Breakfast is just too big for this.  Look at all those bands in each category, how many of them have done multiple national tours?  I bet that every band in the "groove rock" category combined have not played as many shows as The Breakfast.  It\'s weird, we\'re kinda under the radar and over the radar at the same time.  You probably have to apply and/or pay to be an offical nominee, and my guess is that this did not happen.  We\'ll settle for the Jammy, thank you very much. :)

I agree, I think we\'re out of their league here.  These are all bands from the Hartford/New Haven area, right?  OK, give each band and The Breakfast one headliner at Toad\'s and one headliner at the Webster, and see who grosses the most.  Breakfast wins it going away.

OK, didn\'t see Rane in the groove rock category, they\'re pretty big, and they played the first Bonnaroo.  Well, Breakfast has still played more shows than every band in the "original rock" and "hard rock" categories combined, I think that says enough.  Speaking of Bonnaroo, I wonder what the heck is going down out there right now.

Who was I talking with on Friday about the Grand Band Slam(acouple of years ago) being the turning point for the new PB sound a couple of years ago?  

I hope hope hope to get to see them on the bouncy bouncy floor of Black Eyed Sallys Cornhole or whatever the name of that place was.......again!
