jason\'s proposal to jill was so cute!! you guys are absolutely fucking adorable together and i am very very happy for you..and nice job on the ring!!
also-at some point during the jam in buquebus, some random drunk guy went up on stage and asked ron if he could talk to him or ask him a question or something (i think in response to question mark+mind).
i don\'t really know how i managed to drive back to my house 2 hours away in va last night, but it happened. :wah:

the set was great. the d5/psygn set up had my head spinning for a bit, some particularly potent and resonating verses in there, especially with everything else on my mind right then! and the fact that they played ldz right after had me laughing all night. that being said, i could not tell you what ldz or queeb sounded like... i was a bit distracted... i do remember hearing queeb get started, stopping my conversation/celebration for a second, turning around, whoo-hoo\'ing and then turning right back to the champagne.
there were maybe about 200-250 folks right up front, but a couple hundred more were enjoying it form their tents (where you could hear the music perfectly). as i went through camp sites and meeting folks for the rest of the weekend, everyone consistently said they\'d been blown away by the breakfast\'s set. and they should be, high energy, focused power all set long! too bad they only got an hour, indeed, cause anymore and they\'d\'ve dominated the entire weekend!
i\'m gonna let jill fill in the mushy parts, but thanks again!
edited to add~ this was taped by at least two guys i\'m good friends with (joel hudson and ben nelson). ben was running an "oade brother\'s enhanced" rig from top to bottom. it sounded great on his crappy headphones, so i\'m looking forward to it. joel was running his usual rig but said he was hearing the generators running on his tapes, so he wasn\'t sure how they\'d sound. there\'s also a video of the question mark, that will hopefully get utubed tonight or tomorrow.

What other bands were good at the festival?

"Alright, let me be the first to say congratulations to then. You get one vagina for the rest of your life. Real smart. Way to work it through."
Just kidding.......Congratulations to you and Jill.....
The first annual Barefoot Festival was a heady and chill little festival. We were treated very well by the folks running the festival as well as everyone in attendance. The set was short but ser. I hope this was the first of many Barefoot fests, and hopefully The Breakfast will get back there next year and get to drop 2 sets for the people.....
Post by: jking on July 30, 2006, 06:31:34 pm
oh, and the diamond? well, jill\'s mom and i had had a phone conversation in april, where she offered her engagement diamond to me to give to jill. i couldn\'t say no. as far as i\'m concerned, that just makes it all the more special.
as to the other bands, burnin smyrnans were real good thursday late night, the grove was unexpectedly good to open the music friday morning. they\'re young (but their lead guiatrist had a killer clean tone) i definitely filed them under \'check out in a year or two\'. cosmic charlie was pretty good, but honestly i wasn\'t paying much attention. we were back up at camp, so could hear them, but i was coming down from an endorphin and adreneline overload, sooo... moonshine still was pretty good, had some great grooves and were much better than when i last saw them in 99 or 00. still didn\'t really grab me, but pretty good. barefoot started off really hot, but eventually the energy dropped. overall, they were great background bands for having yourself a great time to. the scene was completely chill and had a very phamily feel, so you be hanging out then hear the newest band do something cool, mosey down for a few songs then head back up to camp, getting in to conversations along the way. i defintely thought the breakfast was the top band there, but i\'m biased, so....
oh, and y\'all should check out this almost nws thread of pics from friday night (post breakfast). lets just say a grand time was had by all!!! http://www.phishhook.com/board/viewtopic.php?p=5812768#5812768

Thurs night when we first got there were all the shitty bands they were smart enough not to put on for the general population, just the assholes who showed up super early (right here) I\'ve heard people say good things about U-Melt but they just don\'t do it for me. All their songs sound very similiar, and they come close to reaching a pinnacle of the jam and then it flattens out and the song fizzles out without actually doing anything. I much prefered them as A440 when they had a vocalist that could actually fuckin sing. The Thurs night late night set was The burnin Smyrnin (sp?) I didn\'t actually go to the concert field but could easily hear them from our campsite. Maybe just cause I didn\'t like anything I heard early in the day but I did like these guys they were fun and kinda funky. I also saw the guitarist and sax player doing a little acoustic duo between sets the next day wich was also kinda cool. Oh, I almost forgot about Dj Spam I also def liked these guys perfect sitting at the camp yakin with friends and drinkin a few beers music. was glad to be at the camp though and not infront of the stage.
Friday was pretty much an all day anticipation for the Breakfast. Trying to get cell service so we could get in touch with the van to figure out when they\'d get there, (and we needed more beer too :D ) I really don\'t remember what came on before them, I wasn\'t really paying attention. But the guys played a good set with a ser Psygn, the proposal was beautiful, it was a great moment in Breakfast history I was glad to be there for. After that we mostly hung out with the boys in the band, I went baloon hunting with the crew (Gencs Gabo and Ellis) stopped by to see Daffodil and JKing to congratulate. The boys then had to leave, and I was sad :( Then Cosmic Charlie came on and did two sets, I\'m really not a huge dead fan and I\'m even less of a fan of cover bands so my interst was no exactly peaked, and really how can anyone follow the Breakfast?
Saturday I saw much of the better music of the weekend. Burnin Smyrnans did another set, this one mid day so obvioulsy not as nuts as the Thurs late night but cool anyway. Made a special point to be back from the lake (beautiful campground btw) for DJ Williams Projekt who IMHO was the best band of the weekend (other than the obvious ;) ) These guys are fuckin great if you ever have a chance to check them out DO IT!! Great guitar player very jazzy very funky, and very fun. Kind of a DBB Robert Randolph soulive vibe. AWESOME band. Then came Moonshine Still, I had never heard these guys before and was very interested because they were one of the bands up against the B\'Fast for best new groove in \'04. I was def impressed, they had a good light show and I liked their jams, don\'t remember too much specifically but I remember I liked them. I would like to hear more though to get a better idea of what they\'re really all about. Then Barefoor Manner did their two sets, I know it was their fest and all but honestly they were putting me to sleep (which was a hard thing to do under those current circumstances ;) )I was not impressed at all. Went to the concert area watched for maybe 20 min and went back to the tent to sit in the dark.
Ok, the final band of the weekend I have mixed feeling about. Midnight Spaghetti & Chocolate G-Strings are one of the oddest bands I have ever seen take the stage. They are very funky and a good band. But the lead singer was another one of those white boy funk rappers. I looked at Todd and Robyn at one point and said something along the lines of "I kinda just want to hit him and I don\'t know why" As FreeSpirit mentioned earlier they had alot of costumes and stage antics. Too me it just seemed like they were trying to hard, if you can play good music just do it, enough with the stage shenanigans, I would rather see a good light show then see the lead singer act like a bafoon for 2 1/2 hrs. But as I said the band was good. We then with Todd and Robyn dragging me along took a midnight hike up what was eventually named stumble hill, came back down and heard a band playing (it was prob 4:30 at this point) went to check it out and Midnight Spaghetti & Chocolate G-Strings had moved their set up from the main stage to a little tent in the camping area and was still playing. I almost prefered them in this scenario because they dropped all the antics, no get ups, just tunes. There were free balloons going around and everyone was getting down. This went on until I went to bed around 7 or 8, and they were still playing.
So all in all I had a great time at Camp Barefoot, I think the festival was def a success. I would certainly go again, esp since I hear a dirty little rumour about the boys playing for much longer next year.

I got home sunday night my sister asked me if I wanted a beer, I said yes, and then knowing my tastes she said "oh shit! I only have Bud Light though" I rolled my eyes and said what the fuck why not at this point. I never thought I would be so excited to dig into the cooler and find a ying ling from the day before, and then I never thought I\'d be so excited to find a budweiser when only Bud Lites were left. :rolleyes:

It\'s bad enough that people drink the bullshit beers :vomit2: , but it\'s even harder to digest Stevie Gencs\'s transition from NewCastle (2001) , a respectable beer, to Budweiser (present).

The "Day Tripper" tease is actually in the jam prior to Dimension 5. There is also a "Scarlet Begonias" tease before the "Day Tripper" tease.
