That would be surprising if they went a whole year without playing a city as large and as close as Boston.  But the priority appears to be playing in Milford, CT once a week so you are probably out of luck.

I couldn\'t agree with you more about the triple header.  It\'s fairly new venue on the South Side at 21st and State.  Been there once and going again next Friday to see Consider The Source.

I\'ve never even heard of Reggie\'s.. Their website looks cool, although they do have a different show scheduled on Friday Oct. 3rd???  :hscratch: I\'m wondering if Thursday night will be booked somewhere in the greater Chicago-land area considering Wednesday they\'ll be in Springfield. Looking forward to some hard facts being spilled on this show, right now I\'m a tad skeptical.

Anyone out there been to Reggie\'s? I\'m wondering if they have multiple rooms for concerts?

Either way totally psyched to see a fairly quick turnaround here in Chicago, esp. on another Friday night.. Last show was bonkers.

Didn\'t see your post Rickey... so, multiple stages or are we in for 6 bands instead of 3?

Never mind, figured it out. Reggie\'s Music Joint, not Rock Club. Kind of a bummer though, I liked the idea of a 17+ show in Chicago for TB. I\'d be very interested to see their young turn out. Whatever, another 21+ venture w/The Hue. Pumped.

It would be surprising. If they played in Boston more than once a year maybe they could move out of the Middle East upstairs and maybe get into the paradise. It sucks trying to get some of my friends into the band when they don\'t come around that often.

Fall would be the perfect time to hit Boston with all the colleges starting back up

I am surprised they have never done well in Boston.  Even Raq (worse mngmnt than Bfast) plays the Paradise twice a year...

There have been plenty of good shows in Boston (Cambridge to be precise), as I recall hearing about Bfam sneaking through the back door of a sold-out Middle East.  The Boston draw has likely been Bfam driving in from a 3-hour radius to represent and less attributable to a strong local fanbase.  How about a co-bill at the Paradise with a band that draws well in Boston?  It seems to have worked well last night.

The middle east is always packed when they play there. Really fun shows too.

the breakfast shows I have seen in Boston have been well attended.  They did play Bill\'s Bar that one time, I prefer the middle east though.  The Paradise would be a good venue to shoot for, lots of larger acts roll through there and playing there provides much more exposure than the middle east upstairs.  If they teamed up with the Brew, Indobox, The Rubblebucket Orchestra, Club d\'elf etc. they could bring that place down.

Or play at Berklee for some event.  They are playing Oberlin so why not Berklee?  Those kids are music enthusiasts and im sure many of them would be impressed with the Breakfast.  Beyond playing at a music school a gig at any one of boston\'s many colleges could turn some heads on and still make that paper.

Maybe a new bio, but I\'d leave that pic! Tim looks good in it, and it sure as heck beats the current band photo.  :duck:
