PB to become "The Breakfast"??

yea plus they named the band when they were in high school. i have a feeling theyve come along way since high school so why let something as insignificant as a band name negatively effect your growth. Its also not an original term, and Pink floyd will one day sue them. who started this rumor??
sleep a lot...eat a lot, brush em like crazy. Run a lot...do a lot, never be lazy..

a change could definitely be good. it\'s just a funny thing, the changing of a name...makes me wonder about the motivation to do so and the consequences once it\'s done... like when is it necessary? what will happen to the people on the verge of discovering pb? a change kind of seems inevitable though, especially with those points you brought up, doc and chris.

- i don\'t think Psychedelic Breakfast is a good name.

- i don\'t agree with changing the name, though i do understand why it may happen... still, 5 weeks into the game is one thing, but 5 years??

- The Breakfast = awful. i say if you change the name, you gotta change it completely... besides, Led Breakfast sounds much better.. :)

- this could make or break the band.. they could start landing gigs they were never able to land before, or it could be like starting from scratch.. russian roulette.

- Ahh... The Name Is The Breakfast, Baby. :rolleyes::no::rolleyes:

"the, the, the, the, BREAK-FAST!!"

:poopself:

"Adrian and Three Guys In Front of Him"

hahaha, nice one!

Psychedelic Breakfast is perfect, I love it.  Nothing describes the music better.  Screw the change, why do it.  Concert promoters hesitant because of a name?  I think it is catchy and cool.

Yeah its cool, but no one is going to want to book them for shows if there is a law on on the books that can send concert promoters to jail if there is a suspicion of fans bringing drugs to the show even if no drugs are found. Promoting a band named  psychedelic breakfast is almost just asking to be arrested if these new laws are actually enforced.

it\'s not so much laws as it is taking a band seriously... and with the name \'psychedelic breakfast\', they tend to be taken about as seriously as if their name were \'wild pack of asscracks\'...

Well at least psychedelic breakfast is a cool name. the breakfast makes no sense at all.

but how cool is it, when it\'s a direct rip-off of a pink floyd song?

remember, i\'m 100% against \'The Breakfast\'.. :thumbsdow:

no.. instead, i think they should change their name to something 100% original, like \'The Crazy Diamonds\', or hey, how about \'Led Breakfast\'??...
