Matt is a Genius!
« on: November 17, 2007, 01:55:01 pm »
He is so damn amazing! Really! His playing is so spot on even when he gets lost he finds his way back so quickly.

The Shakedown from last night had him kicking all sorts of ass and from what I read he was not familiar with Grateful Dead songs. UH same thing with Phish remember? and we heard what he did with that music!

So far what he has brought to the Breakfast\'s Originals catalog is just so fuckin\' incredible I cannot fathom what the new year is going to bring this band.

 I am not even talking about them blowing up.

I am talking strictly about the music they will create wherever they happen to be playing.
Get these guys into a studio ASAP. A real studio.

Matt is really pushing this band into so many new directions and so far I have not been disappointed AT ALL!

To take a phrase from Rickey Roux: You Lucky Bastards!!!

I really love how Matt has brought the jazz element back to the live performances, something found in older PB shows that hadn\'t been around for quite a while.  

When was the last time they played Matt\'s ragtime Dig jam?

Leith, I couldn\'t agree with you more.  Matt\'s addition has propelled this band into another dimension.  His musical background is a perfect fit for this band.  Bring on the future.

It\'s just stunning how the advent of Matt changed the dynamics overnight.  I can\'t believe what has been accomplished in only a few months.

Quite awhile. Very refreshing.
Hmm if ya think about it the guys are getting to explore the bands roots w/ Matt so strong in Jazz.
Would def. account for such drastic changes in jams that have been fairly similar for the past couple years.

matt is really good, and really nice. Im excited to see if he produces some new tunes and what they sound like.
The guy has never listened to phish or the grateful dead. I wonder if he is into zappa or the chili peppers or anyother band the breakfast claims as an influence...besides mahavish which he must know well...hum...we will see.
