[leith]

I may have missed it but has anyone answered the question of how many people were there? Estimate?

 wow Binary Sunset just gave me goosebumps. Nice Job guys!

[skalnbyc]

There\'s yet-to-be debuted songs that tie into the story, besides the ones that have already been played: the three Episodes, Buquebus, Gladys, Simpleton.

Has anyone heard from Simpleton lately?

I may have missed it but has anyone answered the question of how many people were there?

I did, though everyone seems to have skipped it (either that or I\'m on many ignore lists).

Well how many? I know you don\'t know but I feel like being an ass. You meant you asked the same question and have not been answered correct?

[leith]

Leads me to think not many but hardcores. Bummer.

Whats up Leith? I\'m taking a big guess here but, I want to say around 250-300 ppl

IMO it was a real good turn out for the webster.
Because as you know not many ppl like that venue

Hey now! Well if your estimate is correct it seems to be the same turnout as usual for an Event @ The Webster featuring The Bfast. Man that HAS GOT TO CHANGE!!!!

[Whineberg]

Yes, I would say around 300 also.

[FrankZappa]

it thinned out by encore pretty substantially but was packed when they started.

[Spacey]

309 paid is the exact number

Last time there was 400. We lost a few heads. Our goal was 500.

My experience from handing out flyers for the Webster is this, "ughh, well, maybe if it wasn\'t the Webster I\'d go"

How do you respond to it?

[leith]

So playing the Webster is losing fans for The Bfast? Not good. One thing these guys lack is a venue to call their own once they can fill it. It seems each band that is making it these days reach their goal of "filling" their local theatre or large club. They then tour gain more fans and come back to a sold out crowd and move up to the next biggest club in town. The Bfast were/are able to do this up to a large Bar level and w/ a place that is as shitty as The Webster as their only option locally, maybe they will need to figure out another way to leapfrog up the jamscene ladder to theatres. How? Got me.
All you guys can do is everytime you see a bandmember tell them the Webster loses fans for them. Everytime you see one. They may just get sick abt hearing it and stop playing there.

I think they should stick with Toad\'s as far as local venues go.  But hey, what do i know, they will figure it out and get this ball rolling big time.  The music is just TOO DAMN GOOD NOT TO!

Sorry to burst your bubble man. But rock and roll history is FILLED w/ bands that never made it even though the music was thought to be just too damn good not to.
It is gonna take ALOT more than faith with this band.

[WALSH]

Go on Tea Leaf Green tour, .

I think, after relistening, that Psygn->Ep.1(Happy) could be some of my favorite Breakfast ever.  It is simply a new style of jamming that I cannot remember ever hearing from these freaks before.  Psygn is quickly becoming my favorite Breakfast song(right behind Buquebus; of course!).  Also, Good Things, PERFECTION!  Now, we\'re starting to talk DYNAMICS people!!!

At least New Haven has more to offer than Hartford. hartford has always been a lame place with very little going for it. New Haven isnt much better but everything is at least very centrally located there. They nightlife sort of centers around the Yale area. Whats Hartford got?

UHA is sort of close but not really. There has never been much of a night life there except for a samll Bar scene and I dont even know if that still exits but I would imagine it does.

NYC isn\'t much better either. All of the bonus points that NYC had went out the door with quality of life laws etc. There are only a few good venues left although I cant really think of more than a couple. Especially for a band this size.

It seems like Upstate NY is the most wecoming on all fronts from some chill venues and decent sounding places but this isnt really local for the band.
