whoops.. good catch, a.. i actually started this list before then.. fixed.

kasproozie the kote, you\'d think he was a ghost.. u wont see him anytime and when he comes to shows, you know hes always on time. you wont see him anytime..when he comes to shows..u know hes out at 9!
-
Kote baby, I don\'t know why this song never made it. On a similar note, I don\'t know why Bugs did.

I hear ya, it was pretty tough for me not to vote for FPZ. I think what swung it is the fact that for a while they did play it. Kote still has so much undeveloped and unexplored potential, that\'s why I\'d bring back Kote first.

Love Lake
Hearing Timmy play it acoustic makes me miss the full band jams.
Swim at the Love Lake!
-
gotta go with frankly. Although I dont know about The Late And Great. I dont think I ever heard it. bugs I miss, but i know i\'ll never hear it again. I\'ve come to accept that. :P
-
I dig, well dug, Bugs a lot too.....
but it was never anything compared to the other breakfast bug tune....May Fly, which has really come into its own lately as one of my favorite breakfast tunes of all time......
-
I don\'t understand why Bugs was shelved... I mean, it definitely wasn\'t my favorite song, but there are originals out there that are much worse. Bugs kinda had a Ya Mar-ish feel to it...
-
Bugs/YaMar I had thought that as well....
Play It Sequoia!
-
There isn\'t a song on this list that I don\'t like. I still say time outs needed for Phaddy Boom and Beef B......
-
is Za out of rotation? I heard them play it during soundcheck the first night at cafe 9. they sang actual lyrics during the chorus where they usually just repeat apizza, apizza. I havent heard it since, but i assumed it was out of rotation until they finished working on the song.

garcian fishbowl is one of pbs most chill songs

yeah, i was debating whether to put Za in there or not. it was played 7 times in 2004 (and total; 11% of \'04 shows).. that version of the song isn\'t going to be played again, but the reworked version is coming soon, so... iffy...
-
A reworked Za would be appreciated.

this is by no means a quote, but heres what I remeber people saying:
Tim and adrian were talking about bugs once, and they said that they were never happy with the arrangement to it. They spent alot of time re-working it and finnaly got a version they though would work. They played that once while on tour, and it was horrible, so they just dropped the song completely.
These are the last times bugs appeared in setlists. Before this, it was always a few times a month. I dont know that there is a copy of 7/9 in circulation, but if there is and this conversation was accurate, then it contains the one time version of bugs.

Hmmmm....maybe we can get an acoustic Bugs tomorrow on the one year anniversary of it\'s last time played

Exactly. IMO, Bugs is a WAY better song than Za.
-
The only version of Za i\'ve heard is from the webster, and it\'s hands down the worst breakfast song i\'ve ever heard........crossing my fingers the reworked version is better

I hear that, these songs are getting tired.
SUBS!
Phaddy and Beef, take a breather on the bench.
Frankly and Garcian, get back in there and gimme all you got!
-
I had to vote Garcian. It was the first PB song that I ever loved although I heard it when they were still Naked Society in the summer of 98. The last time I heard it was during the Tribal>Garcian>Tribal>Garcian>Tribal sandwich from Sully\'s, November 2002, which was played as a result of my semi-joking suggestion to Tim between sets. Of course, they now have several tunes that I like better, but I still feel Garcian has one of their best hooks and I\'m sure there will be fanfare when they dust it off, which I predict will happen on 5/15/05.

garcian and frankly were never on my list of favorites.id go with love lake or bugs for the comebacks!

A few paraphrased Tim Palms pearls from the Living Room.
Garcian Fishbowl: It\'s not on the shelf (case and point, see: setlist 07/16)
Bugs: I (Tim) have thought about playing it again, but the band never will.
The Late in the Great: It\'s being reworked, but it\'s not a priority.
No "quote" on Frankly Po Zest, but he mentioned it as a possibility for the night\'s set, so it\'s definitely not on the shelf.
-
After hearing Garcian last night I really think it needs to get back in the rotation.... I had forgotten how good it can be!

Garcian is BACK!
-
umm... yeah. I remember telling whoever worked the Merch table, I\'m sure you\'re out there somewhere during Garcian that I could hear that song every night and be content. Well, maybe not every night, but that was only my 2nd one and if its been that long since its been played then they gotta get it back in the groove.

It\'s worth mentioning that one of the reasons why Garcian was played is a bit of friendly vengeance toward the regulars who didn\'t make the trek.

"Friendly vengeance" is deserved, I accept it. In the meantime, I was at the Umphrey\'s show in Manhattan flyering for the Breakfast show coming up in Manhattan, so I was just as useful to the band in my absence. Everyone else went and seems to have a had a good time, and the band brought back a great tune. Everybody wins.
-
leave it on the shelves!!however,bring back bugs!
-
deliberatley playing songs to tease the audience or lack there of..sounds like another band i know.
-
That\'s right. Mere days after I praise Garcian in this very forum, they play it down over at the Living Room and I miss it. Something\'s fishy.

Dave, you missed a shelved song in the poll: Prom \'97.
I honestly don\'t know if I have heard the Late and Great. Even if I have and later saw it on the setlist, I would have assumed it was a cover.
Can\'t believe Bugs has been stored away, I always thought that was a peppy band favorite that they loved to play late in a show.
What about Uncle Freddy and Cut me Some Slack?? Are they on the shelf?
You guys from Staven should have all the info. on the song mysteries since you see the guys all the time.
Any idea why Love Lake was axed?
Love what they did with Fairy since it has returned to the lineup!
-
Even though it wasn\'t a personal favorite, I remember some raging Kote\'s.
I love Gypsy Girl and can\'t understand why everyone hates it.
I have another song question to ask: Was the Chase an old song that was re-worked and re-named? I\'m trying to remember what I was told when it debuted in 2000 (I\'m guessing).
-
I always thought that Bugs was regarded similarly to Funky Bill\'s.

My favorite PB songs:
Vermont Song
Gypsy Girl
Beef Barley
Lit
Phaddy Boom Baddy
Al Gypsy Girl is... well.... nevermind..... :duck:

I am confused. Are these your favorites or least favorites? If you hate Vermont Song, you have to hear the Baja Bash edition. It\'s pretty good. Maybe I will send you a copy if you don\'t have it.
Am I close?
-
Of the still out-of-rotation songs in this poll, I\'m going to say "Love Lake", though I don\'t think that I\'d want to hear it in regular rotation.

Originally posted by jocelyn
wow! not bad. I those are my least favorite songs for sure. Overuse of sarcasm I suppose. Musically, I like VT Song ok. Just can\'t stand the lyrics.
But, if you think you can convince me... (good luck, others before you have tried and failed!)
Now no one better get any ideas for robbing me- I have a vicious attack dog whom I feed gunpowder.
Since I am still excited about my recently acquired Baja Bash disks (got them Friday), I will be sending them to you tomorrow so you can enjoy them too (VT song included because there is one that actually "kicks ass" in the show).

Thank you!

are FLAC files available to upload to archive.org?

I am illiterate when it comes to music technology. I only know what CDR and MP3 means. Leith burned the disks for me and sent them out Friday. Is FLAC some other from of media storage?

Al U got me all jazzed up abt the Baja Discs and I was listening to the Vt. Song and totally thought "wow this sounds like no other Vt. Song I have heard. WAAAAAY less Willie and the Hand Jive feel and more raunchy guitar goodness.

Chris I got the discs straight from Dave Wright who was hired to record the festival. I know there are plans to try and sell sets from the fest. Permissions are being worked out. Kimock may want to sell his set on his site etc. I do not know how Dave has the music stored though I would think it is digitally stored in his computer. I was going to upload my CD to LMA but was unsure of how u all felt abt that. So I burned 5 copies of my discs and offered them up. So far Al has been the only one to send discs and I am sending Gia hers. Would you like Dave\'s # or email ? I can get it for you if ya wish.

There is also a lot of emphasis on Jordan throughout the entire show. Some recordings end up lop-sided in Tim\'s favor.
-
Yeah Jordan is on fire too. I was thinking of how comfortable he\'s become soloing. From my 1st show 7/03 to now he has taken huge steps in his playing. I really love keyboard players and it just hit me today how good he actually is.
btw how did you like the other show I sent?
-
I haven\'t graduated from the Baja Bash yet and am still "sweating" those disks. I will get into Winston\'s in the next week I hope.
-
Jordan\'s talent is definitely showcased on the Baja Bash disks. More so than ever before!
-
and well Deserved IMO

Phaddy B.B. is played because it draws people to the Breakfast with it\'s catchy sound. After hearing it a bunch of times, it loses its appeal because of its simplicity. I remember thinking it was the coolest song for a little while back in early 2000. I am a fool!

if you were a fool you wouldn\'t have neem reeled in hook, line and sinker

phaddy boom baddy is an amazing song. the jam at the end is out of this world!
