This just in: Gordo officially has the most muscular legs in the midwest.

In a statement released earlier today, he said, "Thanks Breakfast."
The crickets and the rust-beetles scuttled among the nettles of the sagethicket. "Vamanos amigos," he whispered, and threw the busted leather flintscraw over the loose weave of the saddlecock. And they rode on in the friscalating dusklight.  --Eli Cash

its about a mile from the campus bars, but the college scene rarely gets down there.  LBC is by far the best bar and venue in the area, and kills any bar on campus for shows.  if they played on campus we wouldnt have been able to get down at all.  we\'d have been shoulder to shoulder and fightin to get to the bar.  the beer is a bit pricey but shit man you tasted it, it dont get much better than that.

I had a great time at the Chicago show!  It was my first Breakfast experience...glad they finally made it remotely close for this WI gal to make a show!

Did anyone catch the fight that broke out right before they started??  I was sitting at the bar for the first 2 bands (back by Chris\' merch table) and these girls started throwing punches and then their menfolk got into it...I got rammed into the bar and my drink went flying...as soon as they broke everything up, the show started and it was a great time.  Guess there was energy in the air!!

The Breakfast fans I know (igziabeher and oldnewbie) have mentioned the lack of showing at some shows, and I don\'t get it either!  Now the capacity sign at the Elbo did say ~108, so it is a pretty small place.  When we paid at the door, they were asking which band you were there to see, and it seemed (from the marks on the page they were counting on) that there were quite a few there for the Breakfast.  

The setlist in general was great, and everyone there had on their dancing shoes!!!  i met some real nice people and we boogied the whole time.  I was glad that I had a primer of a few shows on disc under my belt and radio.joe because I knew several of the songs.  I actually got asked the name of and the lyrics to part of Sleeping Beauty by someone in the crowd...crazy!  

I look forward to seeing these guys again...hopefully in their stomping grounds in August so I can get a real taste of the Breakfast world!

(oh yeah, and Chicago was pricey...I spent $90 on drinks (for 2) that night!! damn!)

Since Freddie has been dormant for most of today, I\'ll fill his a-hole shoes:

Actually neither.  I know Greg and Duane.  Greg and I travelled to quite a few shows together last fall/winter.

There is a frequent poster named Freddiewah and approximately half his posts are irrelevant.  He usually says "Wait:who" and other non-sense that you will soon learn all about.  For some reason, he hasn\'t been posting today.

glad you had a good time.  You\'ll just have to drag some more people out w/ you next time.  Don\'t mind Zerflu, he\'s a bit of an oddball.

You are an interesting dancer, especially that maneuver with one knee up in the air and a cup of Coke and whiskey in your hand.
