Bfast\'s Western momentum gone?

Well since TLG and ALO never play out here, I guess we\'re even.

Oh really?
A few TLG dates of LAST month hmm in alot of Bfast venues at that. Oh and ALO is only opening the ENTIRE Jack Johnson Summer tour in Sheds.
May 19, 2005
Starr Hill - Charlottesville, VA
May 18, 2005
Jewish Mother - Virginia Beach, VA
May 14, 2005 Listen to this show at the Live Music Archive
Buffalo Creek Music Festival - Lexington,
May 7, 2005 Listen to this show at the Live Music Archive
NXNW - Philadelphia, PA
May 6, 2005 Listen to this show at the Live Music Archive
The Funk Box - Baltimore, MD


I am only attempting to put in the group consciousness that there is a major market not being taken care of and those music fans WILL AND ARE going to these other bands to get their live music fix.
Yeah TLG has Dennis McNally interested in them and Jack Johnson is personal friends w/ the guys in ALO so yeah they got a leg up there but I think if the Bfast just freakin\' play more out here and some bigger markets in the midwest, people will have no choice but to spend their cash on Breakfast and will be more willing to wait for the boys to come around. I question the momentum only because up until this past Baja Bash last year they were on a skyrocket of visibility what w/ a Jammy win(which was never truly capitalized on) and now I just think it is petering out.

We plan to be out west in the fall.  And yes, both the van and agent thing suck.  

Then again, as I elaborated in the Chase forum, I do think that finally dealing with the van thing with Josh Kroop will be good for all parties, and the agent thing will hopefully be resolved shortly with a really, really good agency...one that really understands how to step this thing up here, and that also has a great rep in Europe.

Anyway....we really want to get west.


This is good to read. I am kinda known as the Bfast freak so whenever the question actually comes up of when they are coming back out here I am the one that gets asked and I hate saying I don\'t know with an expression of hopelessness and shrugged shoulders.

i didn\'t even know what ALO stood for until i just googled it..


Yeah because I only post crap no one wants to read I guess.

Animal Liberation Orchestra def. takes the cake for being one of the dumber band names out there.. a step under Hypnotic Clambake, but one above Killswitch Engage.

(Organisers, please note: NO BLOODY PARTICLE!)`

Now that would get me there NOOOOOO problem.




Can\'t see it happening though. ;)

\'06 is already announced:

1st Weekend:  Biscuits, Yonder Mt., Galactic, New Deal
2nd weekend:  Umphrey\'s, North Miss. Allstars, The Duo, STS9

That is why I was saying the Breakfast should get over there for late-night shows.  Shit they could play in the Leidseplein(open street/park in downtown) for free/tips during the day too, the place is CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!

talkin\' about stupid band names on this board? LOL If you understood that the animal they are liberating is the one inside all of us maybe it would not seem so dumb.
