Damn it!!! The lump on my forehead was almost gone too!!! :sigh:

The Red Square is broseph approved. They are really interested in getting the band for NYE.
I woouldn\'t be completely opposed to the idea but I think CT is a better idea, gotta stay close to home for the home town faithful

you and I have had the worst Breakfast show luck lately

How large a crowd???

i wish eric at the red square would return my phone calls.
-
you and I have had the worst Breakfast show luck lately
Yeah, I\'m just going to give up and stop going to shows all together!!!
-
I don\'t disagree with you Me! at all. The people who ran the show were all about the Breakfast like I have never seen. She basically backed Stephen into the corner and was like "you tell them to make it happen", "we want them for NYE", "you tell your people to let them know and lets make this happen", after about 5-minutes of this and the breakdown in HB, I went back inside. They dig the b\'fast and she mentioned something about getting ellis all the lights he wants/needs for NYE.

Let\'s see, Me, Fitzy, Peaches, Lexington, Max, umm, Dredmonkey, Rory, Hot chicks, Hot chicks, broseph and the band.
probably around 75 or more.
-
Eric was the drummer in Rezi
-
i know. i\'ve been trying to call him about an urban fetch date and he seems to be basically unreachable! even if he doesnt want to book my band, a phone call to say no can do would be nice.
-
memory of a free festival??? and reprised, at that???!?!?? and i just tried to pick out my other presumable highlights and ended up just copying the whole thing!!!
man, what a thursday night, eh?!?!
-
indeed, Adrian should be allowed to write all setlists.
-
the show was intense.... #15 for me. Great great time. Apparently I was the only one who bought a ticket from red square\'s site and had them at will call. The guy there said, "Are you William?" I was like, "Uhhh, yeah, how\'d you know?" etc. etc. I was shocked to say the least. There was only 30-40 people there I\'d say but they rocked their asses off and I had a blast. Couldn\'t have been happier to hear Memory of a Free Festival, that\'s one I\'ve wanted to hear for a while. Always happy to hear Surreal, Honeybutter, Psygn, Intention, Beef, Rufus etc. Thanks boys for a great time. Hooray day off after a Breakfast show!
-
ya, your probably right about the turnout, just seemed more because of the set-up. of course, the 2nd set seemed to be much lighter than the 1st.

It\'s hard ro argue with that
but if there were only a handful of people there, is that what NYE would be like too?
-
tapers checking in here: yup, only about 50 paid I would bet. the tape is OKay, this club is not the greatest for acoustics. Kindms and bigmamagrape were there with me and he should have the show up after they get home from wormtown. (For those who care: AKG c414\'s omni spaced 17 cm hung from ceiling about 8 feet in front of stage -> V3@16/48 -> I river/D8.) Sounds a bit boomy on first listen.
edit to add: dam, I almost forgot to say what a great performance! These songs got really extended, and awesome 2nd set rapport with the audience. Adrian\'s set up in front with the band liek a jazz trio is really entertaining to be able to actually SEE him play instead of being way in the back.
I live in Albany area and I have a few opinions about Red Square in general and bkfst NYE in particular:
Red squre is nice, the owners and bookers are solid folks. I think the capacity can\'t be more than 400, prolly more like 350. For a THU night show that wasn\'t locally advertised even at the food co op 1 mile up the street I am not surprised by the turnout. HOwever, with SUNY Albany over 21\'s living off campus within easy reach of Red Square more CAN be done.
The next time they are here I will flyer on LArk street and at the co op, I can\'t do more than that, but I think that will increase attendance here. This town has several colleges in it, a student population of at least 50,000 if you count RPI in Troy, SUNy, College of St, Rose, Albany School off Pharmacy, Union college,Skidmore ( in Saratoga, but still close)
About NYE, I think the place is too small, that is the only "downside" I can see other than not being in CT, which seems to make the most sense, family and more hardcores fans being local to CT.

1 - Inverted
Happy Birthday sung to Animal by the crowd at Encore Break.
When Adrian showed me the two sets he wrote for last night, well first I had to scoop my jaw off the floor. One of the best written setlists in some time. The first set looked like it was going to rule the night, however, this was not the case. Though the inverted Psygn to open the night was cool and a fresh idea, and the inverted Attraction was sick as ballz, the return of Hard Luck, the jam from HLH > Heather, Scheme, and Memory (Reprise) owned the night.
The crowd was into the show all night and Red Square is a pretty cool venue. They are just open under new ownership and hopefully we can get there again.
I was a bit disappointed in the turnout and was having a conversation with Bigmamablueberry about this. What does this band have to do to get people to their shows? This is a mystery. I was thinking about this on the ride home and came up with this.....What do people go to see live rock music shows for? Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll. Obviously just having one of the three is not enough, because the boys bring the balls to the wall Rock and Roll each and every night. So when you think to yourself, "what can I do to help get people to Breakfast shows?", lets start thinking sex and drugs please ;)
Great to see all those that made it out to the show.....Josh (aka bdfreetuna) great to see you again and hope to rage out again soon......Gabe....I cant believe that your sister remembered me from the boat cruise......she (and her friend) = cool ass friggin folk....missed you though......

Back in June I gave my vote to Psygn over StL w/ this post
"Well if they ever invert Psygn it will blow minds all over so it got my vote."
Hope it sounds as neat as I thought it might.
-
it was definitely cool to see them open a show with something other than Jam> or Space City Affair>
-
I didn\'t hear Spunk... am i going crazy? I agree with the inverted attraction and psygn.... great calls on those!

She and I spoke about this on the drive home after the show. We came up with the same three reasons why folks go to shows :stoned: , and added to see old friends and to meet new ones to the list, making 4 reasons.
One thing I can think of that IS unique, but would require some effort by some one affilliated with the band is this: making sure that someone from the local music press gets invited and IF they come writes a review. For instance, the Albany paper is Metroland, and I am wondering if it was covered. In essence, this is one of the things a P.R. person would do for artists, which of course, they can\'t afford. So I wonder how this could be accomplished by the likes of us fans? e mail the papers ahead of time???? I am just spouting here and have zero time to do this. Does anyone have any other [ good, not silly:bounce2: ] ideas????

Well...being that:

Has anyone ever explored the possibilties of contacting student services at any colleges? Get names and numbers of student leaders. College heads are always looking for something to do! And Thursday nights are ussually huge. BUT...they need to know about it!!! These are resources that were being worked on years ago and now.....:hscratch:
-

Here\'s one. People don\'t go to a show unless they\'ve heard of the band.

Perhaps Mr. Gencs might be a source of the requested track lengths?

i have a tendency to make things up as I go along.
-
Good, good times :)
I was tired as hell for this show but I made it front-row standing to the end, so it must have been good ;)
Psygn inverted = the way to go!!
Merge was insanity
Beef Barley was fun as hell
ummm.... MEMORY + REPRISE!!!!!! that made me happy to say the least
Stephen I\'m with you on the sex+drugs bro... somebody\'s gotta put little pieces of paper inside that mountain of free DVDs.. I betcha a few more people would be sticking around for the second set hehehe
oh yeah, and sex too, definitely
... Turnout was pretty damn small but it\'s good to see a lot of familiar faces having a blast. Oh yeah, if that mysterious gap between the stage and the crowd lasted for any longer than the first song I was about to start doing weird things in that space. Probably a good thing people loosened up quick ;)
-

Sometimes I like that gap....gives me room to move around and take pics!!! Of course, I usually don\'t taking any until mid first or second set.

:finger: My camera comes to all shows! Only a few select ones have I chosen to not break it out! GOOOOOOOO FUUUUUUCCCCKKKKK YYYOOOOOUUUUURRRRRSSSSSEEEELLLLFFFFF!!!!!!!!!
-
My camera comes to almost every show I\'ve been to..... but only actually broke it out once in 4 years because I get too wrapped up in the music and the moment to bother with stuff like that.
Besides its more motivation (like i need it) to get to the next show :)
-
damn I wish I could have made it to this show. the setlists looks killer. I am always astonished about those mysteriously gap between the band and its fans. but it happens all the time and its definitely not just The Breakfast. As far as NYE being at Red Square, I am not too sure especially if you can\'t get a HUGE turnout, which is what the band wants and needs, but since its alot closer to me that CT, I vote YES!
-
What\'s an inverted Psygn?
-
^^
the trippy Boomerang intro Tim does went straight into the jam... then at the end of the jam they busted into the lyrical part of the song

I love sharing anything I bring (goodies) with fellow infoers or even the band. I do agree about the sex part...there needs to be more sex going on at these shows...(or at least strippers dancing next to Tim, Ron, and Adrian....or would this dissract them from producing amazing music? On a side note I miss seeing all you guys now that Im back in school teaching...good thing I get my liscense back in 5 days:biggrin: see ay all soon with drugs and sex..(disclaimer: maki=sex only with the ladies.. No dudes are alllowed in the VW bus unless you sleep on the top bunk and I have no company downbelow and you are not allowed to wet the bed above me!!!!!)

Freespirit knows Im just joking...but that fart incident happened to me the other day...some kid farted so bad I tought I was going to hurl...I opened all the windows..but I think this one girl I was helping at the time (when I first smelled it; thought I ripped it. The best thing to do is "cropdust" walk casually by, rip a silent but deadly one, and then move to the other side of the room quickly..and watch the students\' faces..they look at each other trying to figure out who laid down the "internal pesticide":poopself:

I think I will post an MP3 version of this show. Ya I know a taper posting MP3\'s but here is why.
The setup:
We clamped to the ceiling about 4 feet in front of the band at Red Square. We ran Omni\'s spaced only about 17cm apart. The recording is pretty good. It is a lilttle bass heavy but an enjoyable listen IMHO. I played parts of it for Tim last Thursday after the TTour show. He said he thought it sounded good.
I was critically listening to the show and trying to even out a first set gain change when I noticed what can only be described as a skip. I was running akg414xls/st > Grace Design V3 (ya for new toys) > optical > iriver h120, we also ran COAX > D8. Kyle has the DATs and I think they are fine (ie. no skips) but I am not sure when I will be able to get the DATs from him, Maybe this weekend. So what I think is a good idea nd feel free to say otherwise. I will post a streamable version of this show so u all can listen to it on your computers and a zip file containing the MP3\'s when I get the DATs I will seed the flac files.
The \'skip\' seems to happen every ten minutes so I think it was the new firmware I loaded on to the iriver. I have since switched back to the older build I wasn\'t having any problem with.
-
... oh, ok!
-
So where is this mp3 Kindm\'s?
My PSP needs feeding.
Thanx
-
Sorry.
I had to work late last night. I will have it done by this evening I promise. I will most likely have the DATs sometime this weekend me thinks as well.
I need to do a Burning Spear set for a friend as well so that will be posted if you have any interest in that as well
-
Sweet.

here you go.

Thanks Mike!!! Never really thought about how spoiled we are with Archive.org and Smartftp until I had to right click>save link as> over 20 times! ;)
-
Thanx abunch.

awesome... thanks a lot! what a kickass show!
-
Thanks Mike!!! Never really thought about how spoiled we are with Archive.org and Smartftp until I had to right click>save link as> over 20 times! ;)
Well I could have put them in a .zip file but I would have had to upload the the show x2 if i wanted it to be availabel for streaming as well.
It took me a lot longer to get it tracked and etc last night. I didnt finish until like 11ish or so. But just to reiterate.
These mp3\'s are just to tied people over until I get a better quality copy of the show. The DATs shouldn\'t have the "skipping" that happens on the this source. When that happens i will bit torrent the flac files and / or upolad it to the archive
-
and / or upolad it to the archive
please do, having as many shows on the archive as possible is important. Plus its my preferred way to grab shows :)

I absolutely was not complaining. (well maybe a little :D) I was just stating how spoiled we are with Archive and, until now, kinda took it for granted. I realize and fully appreciate all the time and energy put into these projects!! And I also know it was a quicky fix for those of us not fortunate enough to have been there. So....thanks again!!!

I knew you weren\'t complaining.
I got so stuck tracking it out last night. You would think with all the shows I have seen and taped I could tarck a breakfast set a little faster than last night. I was starting to get pissed at myself.
Beef Barley > Attraction To Shade Ditty* > Beef Barley
Hard Luck Harry > Heather > Surreal Radio
Those two runs gave me a hard time figuring where to make the 2nd split

The BB>ATSD>BB through me for a loop trying to keep a setlist because of the inverted way it was played.
The HLH>Heather was so smooth, I thought it was a nice new jam out of HLH.
-
I love when they flow the segues so well that it\'s almost impossible to tell when the transition was!!! Not so much love for having to track it!! :lol:
-
hey.... just listened to the whole show. just wanna say thanks again. It sounds great!!!! :)
-
^^
ditto that, I just started streaming it online... the levels of all 3 instruments came out very good, clear, good bass/trebel/whatever
in other words, nice job :)
.. edit) well now I downloaded it... sweet, I haven\'t noticed the skip yet...
MEMORY of a FREE FESTIVAL!!!!! yeeeeeah!

Really? I guess you must have been tired because ATSD starts later than you have it tracked and the 2nd split back into BB was nigh perfect.
The transition into Surreal could have been split a sec. or 2 earlier but other than that sweetness!!
I just posted these thoughts because I think it will be easier to track Breakfast shows now due to the clarity between instruments and the fact that Tim pretty much has a tell for the next song 98% of the time if you\'re listening.
