the new website was launched with great fanfare a couple of months back. it has been pretty disappointing overall. the advertisement for instant live is still running. this disc has NEVER been available for sale anywhere but at bills bar that night, yet the web site continues to advertise it for sale. the fact that the ad is still showing on the website is an example of the running in circles that is going on around this band right now. how is a new fan going to feel when they come to the site, see this ad, and try to order the disc. they won\'t care that it\'s instant live that won\'t sell it to them. all they\'ll know is that the breakfast cain\'t even deliver the discs it\'s advertising. this is ludicrous. almost as bad as the banner advertising shows from a FUCKING MONTH ago. If the breakfast is ever going to realize the success that should come with all of their talent, a much more professional posture is going to be necessary. current/accurate updates on ALL aspects of the bands activities would be a start and ignoring things that are unpleasant has to stop....it\'s time to grow up. i hate to post a negative thread but if this forum is here just to kiss ass then it\'s not for me. it\'s fun to sit here and tell the guys how great they are and all, but we are not helping them if we keep letting them off the hook for stupid shit.

just for the record....this was originally going to be an e-mail to tim through the website....but.......that function isn\'t working properly. not so great since he and ron are listed as the managers......you have to be able to contact the manager......that\'s rock star 101!

Duane that damn Bill\'s Bar ad pisses me off everytime I see it and yes I do click it just in case..... I agree wholeheartedly with your entire post buddy.

everything else aside, which I whole heartedly agree with, that Bill\'s Bar show could not be sold outside the club, and they\'re lucky they didn\'t get in trouble for selling it in the club......it had a cover on it

Got to agree with you guys -the site needs an update. Maybe now the boys are back in town Tim and Ron can get something sorted out. I for one would love to see the merch site updated with some of the cool tees which were discussed a while back on the forum, eg the SER shirt.

True. It is the official place to get information on this rising National act. Makes sense it should be current within a couple of weeks as most official band websites are such as the Dead, SCI, moe. etc.

Here is another thing that needs to be fixed. I searched google.com for "breakfast" just to if anything on the band would come up. the 9th result of about 24,700,000 is was link to psychedelicbreakfast.com, which is just a blank page.

the official term is "customer feedback" though with this crowd I think of it as family input/bitching
And thank you to those in charge for paying attention to it. :banana:
