Hear it from the horses mouth...
« on: December 02, 2008, 08:06:40 pm »
As some of you already know, the rumor of New Years Eve being my last show is true. I\'d just like to take a second to thank all the fans that for the last four years have made this a truly unforgettable experience.  I have had the time of my life touring with The Breakfast and i would not trade in the memories we have together for anything in the world.  Between the guys on stage and the others who have graced the silver bullet with us, I would just like to say that you all have changed my life for the better, and it is because of the support and tolerance that you have shown me that is even allowing me to begin this next jouney in my life.  I will always have a special place in my heart for the breakfast and the amazing music that I have had the privelege to hear over the last 4 years, and I look foward to great things for everybody involved.

You will certainly be missed.  I\'ll always remember the good times from my three trips out East and the last two Midwest tours.  Best wishes.
You Lucky Bastards!

Greg "Johnny Upstate" Ellis,

I still can\'t believe this moment has come. Things just aren\'t gonna be the same around here without you.

The best to you in your venture out west.  I\'m sure everyone will love to hate and love you the way I have hated loving and hating you for all these years.

Your talent is only exceeded by your confidence in your talent and that is one of the things that makes you a soul that I love.

I only hope that we have many more opportunities to hang out.  You\'re one of the best, and I\'m actually kicking myself that I never took the many, many, many, many opportunities that I passed on tripping with you.

All of my best to you!!

All of my best to you!!

All of my best to you!!

All of my best to you!!

All of my best to you!! :sorry, repeater mode:

Love ya bro!,
Billy C.
