That  way you can catch THE BREAKFAST.

I\'ve heard of this, but never even considered going before.  It\'s kind of far, (even from the nearest airport).  Looks so cool, but not so feasible.  Anyone go before?  Any recommendations on how going w/o spending a whole week on it?

The link in case anyone else is new to this festival:

Great job getting them this slot!

Has them listed at the \'field\' stage, not the barn stage. Also seems as if most of the artists are getting 2 days, any word on the guys getting an afternoon set later in the festival?

Post by: estahwhaddup on May 23, 2006, 07:29:03 pm
detroit lakes is in northern minnesota, i think you could fly into minneapolis but then you\'ll still have to drive 5-6+ hours..??  not for sure though, they might have little muni airports that fly up there, maybe even a sketchy puddle jumper boat plane thing haha.  but i think its closer to fargo, north dakota, so maybe plan on flying into there

Hi Robyn,

The touring schedules just didn\'t work out for the Breakfast to be involved
this year. They are great, and will surely be back in future years. Thanks
for the email and have a great day!

Hooray for the festival putting them on the field stage!!!! If you look at the map (http://www.10klf.com/map.php) you\'ll see that the field stage is MUCH better than the barn stage!!!! It\'s right on the back side of the open area from the main stage! The barn stage would have been only a step up from the saloon stage, that they stuffed the nuts out of last year. VERY happy to see a perfect time slot for them too, 11 pm, as opposed to...what was it, like 1 or 2 am? Should be able to get all those who missed them last year because they went to bed at midnight!!!

my quick search yielded nothing below $410ish to Fargo. $312 cheapest to Minneapolis from Providence, nothing cheaper than $356 from Bradley, $288 from JFK, $255 from LaGuardia.

Gettin lower. $232 from white plains, ny

The fest is Wed-Sat this year instead of Thurs-Sun.  Kinda strange....  not sure of the motivation behind that decision, but it means I have to travel like hell to get there in time for the Breakfast.  It\'s about a 12 hour journey for me so I\'ll probably drive part of the way Tuesday after work.

Detroit Lakes is 4-5 hours from Minneapolis - most of that is a straight shot on I-94.  Consider that if you fly into Fargo you\'ll avoid those extra hours in the car plus the cost of a tank of gas.  It may be worth the extra bucks on the flight to North Dakota.

The Saloon was crowded as sh!t last year.  The Field Stage is perfect and I think the time slot will draw really well... unless people skip Wednesday entirely because of work schedules, travelling, etc.  I\'m sure that everyone who comes up Wednesday will be ready to \\RAWK/ by 11pm!

I was kinda surprised by the Wednesday gig but not it makes sense since the festival is Wednesday-Saturday. I\'m sure that all those who make it to the field stage Wednesday will be very impressed. Enjoy the festival!

yea it wouldnt be a big deal if the fest was in NY or even the NE but trying to make it all the way out there by wednesday with no airports around is gonna be tricky.

I thought my festival-going budget was shot after Summercamp and Wakarusa, but I lucked into someone\'s "+1" spot in VIP :disco:   That makes it worth the 12+ hour drive!

I certainly hope to tape the Breakfast, but it will depend on the person whose +1 I\'m taking.  I doubt I\'ll be able to get in until after his arrival... Suffice to say that if I\'m there I\'ll tape their set!

I cant make it to 10KLF this year for a number of reasons but I can say that the Field Stage is way better than the stage they played last year.  A much larger sound system, better lights, plenty of dancin room, etc.  The Soo Pass Ranch is about 6 miles south of Detroit Lakes which I would have to say is more like a 3.5 hour drive from Minneapolis....and mostly on 70 MPH Interstate.  Its all just 3.5 hours from where I\'m sitting right now but I wont be able to attend.  By the time they announce TB was playing I already had decided that the lineup wasnt what I had hoped for.  Then 2 months later I was kicking myself in the ass.  Oh well....we\'ll see what happens next year.
