Where are my South Norwalk Timmy Tour Dates??

[Yoda]

1st - The Breakfast played SoNo three times from 01-02 (8/4/01, 5/17/02, 10/25/02)...  They were a good time, but it was all the same people from New Haven that went to the shows...  Whether the locals enjoyed the music or not, they just stayed at the bar...

2nd - I worked in SoNo for four years during my early 20\'s and those people that were out from Thur-Sat looking for a good time weren\'t looking for good music, they were looking for the happening/trending spot (which usually turned out to be the most expensive spot)...  And for the most-part they were over-priveleged, rich WASPS who could care less about the music and more about if they had the right close on or if their hair was the right highlight of yellow...

3rd - All of those places you mentioned have booked cover "bands"...  We all know that Tim is talented, but these people are coming out to see a cover band, not a one man band...

Hey Yoda...thanks for adding your opinion, but it means ZERO on this board.  I\'ve seen you talk out of your ass before and as far as I\'m concerned you have no credibility...but hey at least you went back and confirmed the dates they played this time  I can\'t imagine you have any idea what goes on or what people or into because who would ever want to hang out with you?  So thanks for playing, but I could give a shit about your insight into how things may or may not be.

And for the most-part they were over-priveleged, rich WASPS who could care less about the music and more about if they had the right close on or if their hair was the right highlight of yellow...

Yeah there are people like that EVERYWHERE...even in New Haven!!!!!  I know...shocker!  I live here.  Let me say that again...I LIVE HERE.  Give me a date and enough time to promote.  THere will be a solid turnout with people asking them to come back

C\'mon dude, Tim can outperform many cover bands by himself.  IF the music is good it doesn\'t matter if its one guy or 5 guys.

I\'m glad that you\'re trying to get a date in your area, but it doesn\'t negate the fact that these rich kids aren\'t going out to hear music, their going to these places because they\'re the popular places to go to...  Why do you think the guys haven\'t played there in more than 9 years?  Because when they did play there, it was the same New Haven people coming, no one new to add to the bus...

We all know that Tim is talented... But these kids could easily be the kids on Jersey Shore, do you think that they care if Tim plays a Reba sandwich?  He\'s not going to play the poppy shit on Z100 that they listen too...  If you can get him or the band into a sem-old man bar that the patrons appreciate music, then great, otherwise you might as well hire him to play a private show at your place of residence...

I dont say this often, if not ever, Yoda is right...

I love the way you guys are trying to get the band to spread their wings all the way to south norwalk, seems like there should be more politickin for south carolina or south dakota.  another preppy CT hangout is not what this band needs.

the sad thing is there would probably be thrice as many people at a breakfast show in south dakota than south norwalk.

i know but the subject changed a bit w/ duane and yoda\'s input.  timmy tour shows are full of scenesters these days, i\'m over it.

i spend my days now reminiscing of wah/walsh wednesday night wegwiches and after parties above the video rental place.

Can we really blame a guy for wanting to bring Timmy Tour to his backyard?  

Beyond heady tunes & friends, it is an income.  I doubt he was driving to the Westchester repertoire because the venues were amazing.

Tim should take over the whole region....SoNo, UConn.....beyond.

That is the 100% truth because I have seen it with my own eyes.....

You are right AlZ....we cant blame him, but when your backyard is a the cemetary for local music in the state, its just a bad idea.....now Westport (THE BLACK DUCK) or Jimmy\'s Seaside in Stamford...those are 2 places in Fairfield County that I believe Tim could break into.........Norwalk is fucking lame. THE END.

Upon reading this thread, two things jump out at me. "That guy is nearly 40 years old". To that one I say lucky motherf\'er. The other one is "older and more mature". I guess someone would have to explain that one to me, just doesn\'t seem like much fun.

As for this SoNo debate.  If you are looking for beautiful ladies, expensive martinis, or a serious meal, SoNo is great,

trade the expensive martinis for moderately priced Guinness and I\'m sold!  I\'d love to see T-tour around more NE states; but I realize the expenses involved in travelling.  I\'ll keep my eyes peeled for any profitable opportunities in NJ.  (hey if it\'s worth it.... just ignore that initial smell on the interstate;))

Yoda...I appologize for this post last week.  Completely uncalled for and a total d-bag comment.  Message boards are designed for differing opinions.  The diversity of thought really adds to this argument.  I live in Sono and have never seen the b\'fast there, obviously I have a different perspective than Yoda or Gencs on this issue.

I\'d still like to see them down here, but even if it never happens, at least the idea is out there now.

And yes...I will be hosting the first after-party when/if it goes down.

No sweat...  I commented mainly because I spent some time in Norwalk and didn\'t think that it was too condusive to TB/Timmie Tour/Kung Fu or the other side projects... Props to you for trying to get them to play somewhere out of the comfort zone... Why do you think I keep trying to get a North Jersey show...

there would be too much work involved for timmy to play in so.norwalk.
