I havent started a thread in awhile so im going for it.
dont know if this was posted here yet, but its a sweet interview. czech it out (http://mountainjam.com/mj-monday-%E2%80%93-artist-spotlight-kung-fu-%E2%80%93-free-track-and-interview/)
"We just recorded a studio album, that we’re putting out probably in the middle of April."
I say! Are you Ser?
discuss
-
I think its been in the works for awhile... I don\'t know for sure, but I believe they started recording it when Kris Jensen was still part of the group, not sure if they\'ve kept the tracks he layed down or if they had Rob re-record them... or if it will be a combo of both. In any case... I can\'t wait to hear it!
-
how many originals do they have right now ? Pretty crazy there\'s already enough to make an album. can\'t wait
-
Ahoy!
-
Cool interview. Thanks lex. Stoops seems like a good dude. Looking forward to hearing the album.

What is the status of the Kung Fu album? Appears there was a release party the other night though I have seen no mention of the party and album; also doesn\'t appear on I-tunes.

I am specifically asking about online purchases. I don\'t see a link to Itunes etc. from the Kung Fu website.
Headed out for a roadtrip and figured I would see if the new album was ready in cyberspace.
-
Idunno, you\'d have to ask kroopy about that.

Yeah, Kroop is a proactive guy and I figured he would relay the details.

hit him up on the kung fu facebook page.

Roadtrippin\' in 5 minutes....hopefully he\'ll post details when I\'m back in town.

I wasn\'t able to make it to Daniel St. the other night, so I am hoping the album will be available to purchase online sometime soon.

you can buy the cd at their website: http://www.kungfumusic.com/mystore

Picked up a few copies at the D Street show the other night. Just gave it listen this afternoon. Quality stuff! Nice job Matt Vallo & co!
I hope Josh can get some online presence, too.

Nice!
Might be me - but - how the fck do you buy off the web site. The \'mystore\' link gets you to the FUGEAR page - then what??? I do a fair amount of online purchasing - and I have never had to figure out what the difference is between Subcategory B and Subcategory C music (both of which have no offerings, BTW)
Anyhow, hopefully it\'ll all get figured out, and online options will sprout throughout! Also seems like a no-brainer to make sure there is an iTunes download option.
Can\'t make Oakdale - and can\'t wait for Friday Vibes!!!

Realy pleased this album is now out, but I had the same problem as stu at the store - there\'s a header saying it\'s available, but no sign of it on the website. :(

that either of these things was happening would be a good start. next would be, how/where do we purchase it (their site doesn\'t have any music for sale)?
and is there really no talk about kung fu here anymore? is there anywhere to have discussions about that band, because a) you can\'t find their website just by googling kung fu, kung fu music, or kung fu band and b) it doesn\'t have a discussion board even if you do manage to figure out the addy.
i guess its all on facebook, but googling should be easier.
-
Who says there\'s no talk about Kung Fu here?
The site\'s even got a Kung Fu Kalendar now. It is "thebreakfast dot info" but all side projects get plenty of discussion.
Amount of discussion probably corresponding with amount of interest in any given side project?
-
Seems like a Kung Fu discussion going on here!
-
sure, after an album was released that wasn\'t mentioned here (other than ad saying in march to keep an eye out for a release date, then there never being an announcement of said release date).
i should have checked the kung fu kalendar, that\'s totally on me. except for the part where it doesn\'t appear on the main page\'s calendar drop down box and only shows up in the drop box once you\'re looking at a calendar already. but if i went to the forums sublevel, then looked i would have found it. i don\'t ever go to the forums because there\'s not enough site traffic to bother looking at anything other than newest posts on the main page.
however, i\'d imagine a breakfast cd release show would\'ve gotten a thread of its own that was highly trafficked in advance of the show/release and that the actual release date would be mentioned. and i\'d imagine a kung fu album release show would be discussed on their message board, but since there isn\'t one of those, this seems like a sensible place for it to be.
i just hate seeing another great musical project not get the recognition and publicity they deserve.... [/dead horse]
please let me know when and where i can purchase the new album.
-
"Wow!" Great response jking!
Somehow a lot of Kung Fu news has shifted over to facebook.
Another issue was, simpletwistedum was off on a honeymoon & wasn\'t up on posting events on .info.
Psychjosh should keep up with posting Kung Fu news on .info.
http://www.KUNGFUMUSIC.com is the Kung Fu site.
I would think ordering a CD should be easy there. If not, they best get their act together!
-
jking you must be in bizarro-breakfast-world if you think Kung Fu isn\'t getting the publicity they deserve ;)
-
Just went to http://www.kungfumusic.com & Kung Fu facebook.
This is where it\'s happening! Not much on .info.
-
hey, i\'m not even the biggest kung fu fan but the show thread had been here since its announcement and always said it was the cd release on top, is it their fault you didn\'t read it when it was at the top of the page? http://www.thebreakfast.info/forum/showthread.php?p=270594#post270594
really, you\'re grasping at straws, this isn\'t even the fucking kung fu website, and all you had to do was go to their facebook page to see discs were available at daniel st. and the boston boat cruise. damn these people who want everything handed to them in 2011, god forbid you remember when you had to leave the house to get new music.

Even though this is theBREAKFAST.info... it has seemed to evolved into a catch all for whatever projects these guys choose to engage in. Please understand that the information/gigs that gets posted is usually gathered through scouring various sites and centralized here (as much as I can find out). I have asked each of the band members to forward me their "side project" gigs when they have time, and when they have the time they do.
My goal lately has been to try and make sure EVERY one of the projects they do are featured here so that the b\'fam knows about it. From time to time one slips through the cracks that I can\'t help but there is usually someone else who might pick up on it (and thank you for those of you that help). As we all can see, Kung Fu is the front runner with gigs right now along with Timmy Solo shows... but there is no Kung Fu message board.
Should there be? Maybe... will it happen? Maybe... but until it does, why not use this site to bring in new fans that follow Fu, Timmy Tour or Elemental, etc? It allows exposure to all of the other projects these guys are involved in as well. Yes, this is probably a dead horse argument but with KF catching momentum, we should be able to use it to our advantage to get some exposure for the Breakfast & all the other projects.
I get it, everyone here loves the Breakfast... but to me .info has defintely evolved into something more than just that. You don\'t have to like everything they do... but you can at least be supportive of the members of the band you come here to talk/bitch/whatever about... Yeah, maybe things seem to be dwindling around here for might be the "old guard". But that shouldn\'t stop those of us that frequent here from advertising or spreading the word about .info.
For what its worth... Long live the B\'Fam!
-
nice work, Donny.
kungfu.info ... :lol:
But yeah, what Donny said... let Kung Fu fans discuss it here, in case they\'re not aware of what\'s up with TB and other projects. Works for me.
-
Or maybe bfam.info
-
that\'s my point, don (also, hope you had a great honeymoon!) i\'d imagine talk about a new fu disc on each of kung fu\'s members\' other band\'s sites. but since two of them are in the breakfast, it seems like this is as good of a place as any to find out tidbits both about kung fu and other projects.
i realize that a big part of the issue is that this site is basically admin-less lately. adrian\'s solo disc is great, but that banner could be switched to the kung fu disc now that there\'s a new product out.
i see that you can buy the album from the kung fu site now. so, that\'s great news!
igz, not everyone is on facebook, so limiting exposure to there is just that, limiting. if you start a business, do you only advertise in the yellow pages? no. you advertise any and every where you can. and you make it easily found advertisement.
you\'re right about the thread, though. i didn\'t open a daniel street thread. had it been titled cd release, i would have seen it and let ct friends know about it. that is my fault for not opening it. (its the one major thing i wish dave had fixed before he split, the titling of calendar threads to give more info than just the venue - not even a date.) but still, a daniel street thread with 11 posts doesn\'t make me think, \'gee, i wonder what\'s so special about that particular show\', either. in fact, it makes me think, \'i guess not many people are interested in that one, so why bother opening it?!\'
i\'m not asking to be spoon fed. i just think that googling \'
"kung fu band" or "kung fu music" would pull up their site, and not just a link to their "official" page on myspace, which has no info, either. i think something like a new release by any of the members of the breakfast should warrant more than an 11 post thread with an anonymous title. and i think the kung fu website, once found, should\'ve had an easy to find link to purchase the cd. it does now, so the major issue is now out of the way.
like don said, they\'ve got some momentum going these days, and i\'d just hate to see lack of promotion and visibility interfere with that in any way.
-
i\'m not trying to be a dick, i just hate to see the breakfast floundering w/ barely any shows on the schedule and not much to look forward to and everyone change gears to kung fu to deal with it.
-
ahh, gotcha. i\'m one of the ones who likes both, for different reasons.
-
i\'m sure i\'ll be on that bandwagon at some point, but a breakfastless future scares me terribly. i\'m glad to see some shows popping up beyond the big up to keep this thing alive.
-
sure you don\'t wanna be spoon-fed?

Agreed - website still showing nothing! :(

boombox, its on the website. its the logo to left of the shirt that just says "Kung Fu". if you click on that, you\'ll find out its the disc. you have to go to Fugear to find it, but don\'t hit the Music tab, that\'s empty.

For what its worth... Long live the B\'Fam!
FOR LIFE!! Great to celebrate with you last night!

I tried getting it on the site. Everytime I add it to my cart i get an error message.
Wasn\'t able to get to the Boston show and I\'m heading to England for my honneymoon next weekend was hoping to have the disc on my ipod to enjoy on the flight.
-

The page you have requested is missing.
someone should mention this on their facebook page so it gets addressed.

Sorry for the store issues everyone! It\'s being sorted out with amazon. A true pain in the ass!! Bear with me and there will be Fu for all I promise with in a day or so
