(Disco) Biscuits for Breakfast(.info)

[NickNels]

I tend to post a lot of Breakfast shows on other bands\' message boards, so I thought I would do the same here.  I am going to try to post a few choice Biscuits tracks a week on this thread.  I hope some of you take advantage or at least give them a try.

The first track is from Camp Bisco VII this year.  The Biscuits brought it that weekend with 6 sets.  I highly recommend downloading anything from 7-18-08 or 7-19 from the archive (http://www.archive.org/details/DiscoBiscuits).  Here is a song called "Shelby Rose" from that weekend.  It\'s a song the band has really killed for the last few years.  This might not be "the best" version out there, but it\'s short and sweet and i think most of you will enjoy it.

Day 2:

This next segment is from Jam On The River this year in Philadelphia.  This has served as one of the bigger hometown shows for the band the last couple years.  Despite being one of the more fun weekends of the calendar year, musically it had lost its luster the past few years.  This year brought a return to prominence with the Biscuits playing 4 sets between the Penn\'s Landing show and late night Efactory.  

This particular segment is from the day show:  

THe City > And the Ladies were the Rest of the Night* > Kamaole Sands^

* Inverted
^ Ending only

If you can get past the vocals in "The City" the rest of this segment really owns.  Enjoy!

See you in Jamaica, BRAH!!!!!!!!!

[wiredchicken]

I support this thread.  I didn\'t think Jam on the River or the Electric Factory show following show were very impressive, though.
Following suit, some of my favorite shows:

^^^All those are good/great shows, but I find the new listeners are more receptive to particular segment/songs than entire shows.  Pick out the really great stuff.

In regards to the JOTR show (the day set at least) was easily the best JOTR show since \'04 and on the whole it was was much better than people give it credit for, but I agree that the night show was pretty weak.

I encourage any Biscuit fans to post their favorite shows/segments here.  I will most likely continue to work backwards through the years.  All my links will be either SBDs or superior AUDs.

nicknels, that shelby rose peak = a smile on my face and goosebumps all over. beautiful version of a beautiful song...nice pick

i\'ll post some goods when i get a chance...i\'m thinking some dirty biscuits to balance out your euphoric biscuits (\'05 sonar)

[skalnbyc]

The biscuits really need to embark on another western tour.  They haven\'t been here since August 07.  Even The Breakfast will have been to CA twice in a half year.

[BennyBoomers]

If you have a good recording of that "05 Sonar show I will be forever grateful.  I seemed to have misplaced mine. Best Biscuits show I have ever been to.

[NickNels]

BennyBoomers...dowload this small text file.  I think it will help you find what you are looking for:

Day 3:

THis next segment comes from 11-3-07 @ the House of Blues.  2nd to last show of the Biscuits Fall \'07 tour, which is regarded by many Biscuits\' fans as the best tour in years.  This show was top 3 of the tour.

 I picked this segment because it encompasses two songs that have become heavy hitters with the new lineup (new drummer at least).  Check it out.  It gets a little spacey in the middle, but hang with it...it\'s worth it.
