hmmm. well i do know what it\'s like to have to make my entire living off of music. i\'ve toured, i\'ve promoted, until recently i was effectively managing my own band, i\'ve produced records, i\'ve done session work, i\'ve written music for tv, film, pop music, etc. so i do know what i\'m talking about, and i think my opinions are valid, but they\'re just that: my opinions. this is an open forum to discuss the breakfast. i disagree (sometimes strongly) with a lot of the shit that is said on here, but that doesn\'t mean it shouldn\'t be said on here. if people aren\'t excited and don\'t feel like actively pimping this band, then the band needs to look at why people don\'t want to do this and try to adjust; that is, if the band is looking for success and popularity. if they\'re not looking for that, if they\'re looking to just play what they want to play, then that is totally cool, they just can\'t complain if not everyone else is into it. but if the band is looking to make a living off of this, then the audience as a whole is their client. they are the ones buying concert tickets, records, merch, etc. and the band ought to think about what those people are going to respond to.
this is my opinion. nothing more nothing less. if you don\'t like it, i\'m sorry you feel that way, but this is just what i have to say. i love the breakfast, but i get frustrated as well, because they are great musicians with a lot of potential to make huge waves in the music scene.
