Judging by the popularity of this thread (http://www.pbfans.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2082), it looks like people want an \'official\' nickname for their Breakfast fandom...

What do you think we should be called? Please vote and comment.

Brekkies is too much like Trekkies.... anything with an "ies" on the end is too sissy IMO.  I vote for the Wild Pack...

It can\'t be "serheads" becasue if your not in the "loop", you have no frecian clue what "ser" means

so? lots of group names are based on that. Need we forget Dee sniders senate hearing on the PCRMS back in 84\'??

Gore: Mr. Snider, what is the SFM\'s?
Snider: Its a fan club for the band.
Gore: and does it stand for something?
Snider: Yes, it does.
Gore: And what does SMF\'s stand for?
Snider: The fan club name is an abriveation of the phrase \'sick mother fuckers\', mr. Chairman


:P

True, but a good group name is something everyone knows about (i.e. phishheads, moe.rons) not just a select few.

But that\'s just my opinion, and Dee sux

weekapaug, my thinking is along the same lines.. \'brekkies\' has a nice ring to it, and it\'s directly associated with the band (like phishheads, deadheads, radioheadheads :hscratch:, etc..).. my problem with serheads is not only that you need to crack a code to figure out what it means, but that if you see it, you\'re gonna mispronounce it until someone tells you how to say it right, by which point you say, \'that\'s stupid\'. :)

same gist with WPOA... unless you really know the songs, no average joe is gonna know what it means... and what exactly is the singular of WPOA? i\'m a brekkie = i\'m a wild asscrack?! :jawdrop:

these are the things we need to consider in the long-term...

SER is very simple.  Just SERIOUS but shortened.  Coined by the legendary WAH, it is distinctively Staven and completely BREAKFAST.....

I will never be anything but a SERHEAD as far as I am concerned

pardon my ignorance, but what is a conehead? (fan of what band?)

^^^ and see, that right there is the problem with "Serheads".. no way to tell what band you\'re talking about..

ah, screw it.. let\'s just call ourselves "roadheads".

coneheads followed David Cone, a pitcher for various baseball teams

Only one of my names made the cut?  And it got changed?  Here were my suggestions:

Breakfast Digesters
The Gladys Pimps
Stavenites And Their Wannabes
Pizans
Hungry Heads

Inner Ser-cle
The Ser-vivors
The Ser-pents
The Serfs
Ser People
Ser People United with Nuggets and Kindness (SPUNK)
The Ser-cle Jerks


It\'s gotta be Breakfast Digesters, not just Digesters, and I think Stavenites And Their Wannabes is poll-worthy as well as Ser People United with Nuggets and Kindness.  The rest are too good for consideration ;)  Oh yeah, Wild Pack of Asscracks, how does that not make the cut?  Whoever said that one, right on.
Title: What should be the official nickname for fans of The Breakfast?
Post by: Marcial on June 02, 2004, 05:40:19 pm
If y\'all are concerned about being "asscracks", just leave that off & let\'s be the "Wild Pack".  

As much as I like serheads, I agree that it may be a little too out there.... Wild Pack is perfect.

For the record, regardless of what the group decides, I will never, under any circumstances whatsoever, refer to myself as a "Brekkie"....... it\'s so GAY!!

I do, in all seriousness have a solution that will require it\'s own thread (or an AIM chat room), about 12 minutes (or 12 days if having to deal with it through threads), and a majority of the crowd being online at the same time, yes wishful thinking but it\'s an idea.  But I don\'t see it working, so nevermind.

I don\'t know but after the past month is this maybe getting ahead of the game. I mean usually these things just develop and from what I gather that is the preferred method for things to bloom in the PB universe

eg the audience participation thread

Post by: jocelyn on June 02, 2004, 08:32:34 pm
I really like Breakfast Digesters...... serheads,  although amusing, I don\'t think has a very good ring to it. And, I would really prefer something that doesn\'t end in "head."  Wild Pack is great, but what\'s the singular? Wild Packer? poor. Member of the Wild Pack? also poor. I don\'t know.....

What\'s your idea ant? As someone who can do little to get involved with the band from over here, I like this participation thread. Also, as someone who has mentioned both Brekkies and WPOAC as possibilities, I don\'t want to get the blame for any name which the gang doesn\'t like!!!

Whatever ya\'ll decide  I guess is cool but I am and always will be a Deadhead. I have been for 20 years now and it works for me.

Now that you bring it up... The Wild Pack works.  I personally don\'t mind being called an "Asscrack" (what does that say about me?), but I tend to think that it would turn away newbies (but not oldnewbies).

The more I think of it, Brekkie\'s is kinda gay (to close to trekkie\'s), but that\'s probally the best one i\'ve heard so far.  I think The Omelettes is kinda funny too, and not a bad name.  I like the idea of the name having some sort of breakfast relation in it.

The Wild Pack works too, and i also wouldn\'t mind being called an asscrack, as i have been called one in the past.

I thought this got shot down on the Yahoo group years ago?  When someone wanted the fans "name" to be the Breakfast Club...why do fans have to have a name?  My vote went to other and I will specify that I think a vote for no name would be best.

I agree with Marcial also, I would never nor will ever call myself or anyone I care about a Brekkie...ever!

modifying my input a little.  i am going to suggest that the pb, sorry, breakfast fans in whole be called "the pizza."  for example, when arriving early to a show, you may ask someone "wheres the pizza at?"  or when slangin\' it out , "wheres the rest of the pie?" this may only be good for the die hards, who know eachother...then we can give out pizza themed pet names for one another.  just one slice of cheese baby.

Must admit, I thought about the t-shirt value too.

I\'m sure it could be doctored - the picture, not the cat, I mean. eg "Fortified with rock and grooves", "Bringing together the best in music" etc etc.

Anyone fancying a go, let me know and I\'ll send you a higher definition image.

Rujah- What I meant was, Did the papers and media name Deadheads and Phishheads after they noticed that these 2 bands had a devoted following. Of course if we went to PT they would mock us, half of the community already states the Breakfast as a shitty bar band.

Call yourself what you want, I still think it is premature to be calling this small dedicated fanbase anything but Breakfast fans. The time will come when someone outside the community will look at us and say damn the Breakfast has a great following fans, they really are .....

# Have have poor image that I feel in unjust. On the many occasions when I\'ve travelled to the Dreamlands I\'ve never had any problems. Of course, I have always taken precautions.

   1. Always bring something to give to the Zoogs as a gift. Zoogs prefer tools, telescopes, clockwork toys work very well. If you have food, offer to share.
   2. Avoid the Enchanted Woods at night, and stick to the trails in the day time. The Zoogs will watch you but will not approach you unless invited.
   3. Be friendly. An angry Zoog can be troublesome, a whole village of angry Zoogs ... well, I\'d rather not think about it.

I just think a group of 100 dedicated followers doesn\'t deserve a name. Even out of that, maybe 10 of us can drop what we are doing and run off and see these guys when they are mere hours away. When we reach a status of dedication that we are out in Iowa following the band, then maybe we deserve a name. It is kind of stupid when a small group trys to name themself out of a desperate plea to have a name for their fans.

I just don\'t think we have hit that level of fandom where we can call ourselves something. It\'s not negative, it is the truth. Some of us only see the band when they are in are back yard. That isn\'t a worthy of a name. Deadheads and Phishheads got their names by travelling with the band whenever they go out on the road. Last I checked, when the boys are on the road, the only thing following them is a trailer and if they are lucky it is on 2 wheels.

You missed my point. You were travelling to NY and although you are from NH this doesn\'t really hit the level of travelling that I think contends for a name on the Breakfast. If you find yourself out in the midwest behind that van, I will be the first to call you a serhead or whatever you want. 2-3 fans following a band isn\'t the level of dedication to start calling the fanbase something. I don\'t question your dedication to Breakfast shows nor do I do anyone elses. All I know are the facts. There are shows in Jersey where 10 people are there, still it is closer then NYC to get to, yet there is no following.
We have  not YET hit the level of SER to call ourselves anything. Just because 10-20 of us are diehards who try to make every show doesn\'t mean that we deserve a name. Outside of the festivals, when was the last time a Breakfast show was sold out? When was the last time any of us where in Chicago for a show?

I don\'t question this. I question our need for a name on the fanbase. When you are in the lot selling grilled Pizza\'s at a Breakfast show, you can almost guarantee that a name for the fans will surface.

ok. but really, I gotta agree w/ Spacey.  While it\'s kinda fun to see the creative thinking with these name idea\'s.  It\'s also kinda forced and lame.  Let others name us when our numbers justify a name.  I wish Spacey could get as much attention and participation w/  his promo efforts as this thread is getting.  And I\'m mostly pointing that finger at myself.  Spacey PM me, what do ya need?  how can I help?!  I got a great idea for a video... oh wait, we already discussed that.

Do you really want someone from outside the scene putting a label on us? I don\'t trust music reviewers etc. to make that decision.

Let me ask you this,

Did the Dead fans name themselves Deadheads?
Did Phish fans name themselves Phishheads?

I ask because I am unsure of the answer.

I just think that self-naming our following is kinda of stupid. First, we are small. Second, outside of New England, most of us don\'t follow the band. I truely believe that all of us hardcores are obligated to go to shows that are in New England. When we finally start to grow noticably to the outside community then we deserve the name recognition. Until then, we are all just fans or groupies.

I agree, the name should be reconized not given. And to boot, the name of the fan base should\'nt come from a fan....

It looks like it came from the fans or the band to me...
http://dead.net/cavenweb/deadfile/history.html (http://dead.net/cavenweb/deadfile/history.html) though it is hard to tell. There may be some info hidden the in archive pages http://dead.net/cavenweb/deadfile/home.html (http://here).Phisheads most certainly came from the deadhead term, and most likely was genereated by the fans as well

Parrotheads came from the band http://www.cobo.org/knowledge/glc/JBFAQ.html#2.3 (http://here).

Funny how serheads seems to have won even though it was not in the original poll.  The term serheads appears in the first issue of Breakfast Digest, which means it is only a matter of time until the Merriam-Webster people get wind of it and put it in the dictionary.

I can\'t decide which is more embarrassing, this thread or the one about other bands fearing the breakfast.  Talk about portraying ourselves as a bunch of dorks.
