Just information and a Thank you
« on: May 27, 2004, 01:23:39 pm »
I have noticed some posters on this board have made it over to thebreakfastfans. THANK YOU.

 thebreakfastfans is there for anyone who may wander in from the Sharing The Groove site and anyone else interested.

 It is being run by Mattc now. Matt is only interested in getting the word out about The Breakfast and has nothing to do with any internal fan bickering that may have occured over the last month.

Just wanted all to be clear about the 2 boards.
Thanx for your time.

It\'s a copy of this site.  It\'s not contributing anything, just maybe confusing people.  There is no need for it.

damn, the wolf has spoken. I agree with wolf that thebreakfastwhateverthehellitis.com should be a pointer link to this site. There was never a need for two to begin with. the fan base is much to small. there barely 500 people here!

PBfans is not a confusing name?

There is a reason for thebreakfastfans as that site does not have the history(good and bad) or exclusiveness of this site. If you really can not see that after the past month you never will.

Not a bad thing Dave. Just an observation. You all are a tight knit group and some may find it hard to be able to fit in. Thick Skin has always been needed on this site for some reason and that\'s all I\'m sayin\'.

exclusiveness?  bad history??

I don\'t get that either... just because a select few people have had a few cross words on this site, hardly means that it has a "bad history."  

I have no problems with the other site (or any other fan site that happens to pop up).  As the band grows, there will be other sites.  I did post over there a few times while this site was down.  But honestly, it\'s more convenient for me to just use and check one site.

As for the excluseivness of this group I really want to stand up and say, "what the hell are you talking about?"  When I starting seeing the Breakfast back in 99, I was a complete stranger to all the \'Staven SerHeads.  At my first show, I was rocking out infront of the band, and I was approached by one Mister Freddie Wah.  He introduced himself and the entire crew to me.  Ever since then I have always been made to feel comfortable around the core group.  

Yes they are a tight knit group.  But I have never seen any real exclusiveness.  All these kids are friendly and we all have one major thing in common.  WE LOVE THE BAND!....

I don\'t think this is an exclusive club 1 bit. I am not from Staven, and I would like to think I am part of this community.

Sure the folks who grew up with the band and have known them the longest are gonna have a certain affiliation that most don\'t but that will always be the case.

All of the Characters I have met throught the band that hail from the greater New Haven Metro Area have been good people and I have never felt excluded. On the contrary they have always gone out of their way to make sure everybody was having a good time.

Now to more important things:

I need to second that... I don\'t have a problem with there being two sites really... people can do whatever the heck they want; I\'ll try to support just about anything band-affiliated as long as there is nothing sleazy involved... however, I don\'t think this is an exclusive group at all... everyone has always been very welcoming, and friendly as can be... even accepted some farm girl from NH hanging around.... As far as needing thick skin goes... no one on this site is really offensive, and, for the most part, it only gets dished out to the people who dish it out as well. I don\'t think any newcomers are in serious danger of a hazing that they can\'t handle.

Also, in reference to bad history... although the new forum doesn\'t have much history in that, well, it\'s new, I would say the history it has had so far has not exactly been crystalline positive...

Yep, the Wah is a regular ambassador of good will!

Yep... we sure did meet at Eli\'s... I remember the night well... Wah & I were talking about it the other day before y\'all went to the show.  You know, as much as everyone hated that place, I actually have good memories of it.  Maybe it\'s just because I used to live right around the corner & was there alot, or maybe it was the high density population of CT cougars... who knows...

I also remember the exact spot were you & I met... @ Rudy\'s... home of some of the best PB shows ever played IMO.

Damn, all of this reminiscing is bringing a tear to my eye... ;)
