i can\'t believe another show for the syracuse tool boxes. I am boycotting.

[derickw]

Get over it Klout, it\'s not just for the Syracuse tool boxes it\'s for everybody. would you rather drive to CT for the show.

[Klout]

I\'d rather stay home. I\'m not wasting my time or money on any more breakfast shows until they stop being snobs and play oneonta again.

[skalnbyc]

Klout, cash in your gangster points and hire them for a private party in Oneonta.  If the demand is that strong, you should be able to hold down one hell of a party.

(Just make sure the dance mirrors are hidden in a vault beforehand)

Obviously thats what it comes down to.... the money.

Who cares about the fans right?

I am not going to shell out 1500  bucks to get them here because they are so greedy that they wont come here with out a garuntee like that.

I\'m over it. They are great at playing music but thier loyalty and buisness sense are in the toilet.

[bdfreetuna]

Oh man, Oneonta to \'Cuse... what a haul!!  That\'s gotta be like a 45 minute drive, at least

1500 bux for a Breakfast party huh? I just might have to cash in some of my own ganster points ... You get to pick the setlist right.. and hide the keys to their ride until they finish the fourth set of course.

Anyway I\'m drivin from Mass, goin to pick up a few kids in Rochester, and then goin back to Cuse for the show. That\'s all the promo I\'m up for this weekend.

Whoa Jus what\'s up yer tush?

[bezerker]

i never got pissed when the band didn\'t play in my home town.  maybe you should talk to the booking agent and not take it out on the musicians Klout.

[Klout]

its not the booking agents gabo. the band has made it clear that they do not want to play here anymore.


they think they are too big or cool or whatever to play the pub anymore and are convinced the fans here will travel to see them


some of the best nights of my entire life were otwizz breakfast show nites and to have the band totally dis otwizz now that they have ellis is just an extreme insult to me and the rest of the fans around here.


I will still see the band at festivals in the summer and what not.


but the days of me driving hours, spending hundreds of dollars and motivating dozens of others to come along with me are dunzo if they are too arrogant and greedy to even kick us a show here and there.


sorry for being such a piss ant about it. I am obviously very bitter about the situation.


sorry to hijack this thread too.

ok so they should go back to the crappy ass General Clinton Pub with people pissing on the walls, great idea!
and what do you know about the business aspect of things, Do you really think they\'re doing it because they\'re not loyal to their fans BULLSHIT!!!
Keep in mind these cats have been playing music for SEVEN YEARS, are they rich doing this NO!  How will they be able to make a living at it?  By having people travel and bring dozens of their friends.  Try and tell me you didn\'t have a good time Utica?  It was fuckin great!

I don\'t mean to be a piss ant about this, i just take it to heart

[casinokid]

Hey klout,
How long have you been going to Breakfast shows?
You do know you are on the Breakfast site, made for the fans
dude chill out, people from CT. aren\'t crying b/c the band is playing in Canada or Syracuse this weekend, most will go.
I\'d say you are on the poop list now guy.

[weekapaug19]

should I be mad cause they have never played Feeding Hills, MA???

[casinokid]

Yeah you should get mad they didn\'t play in your hometown in Massachusetts, maybe you should rant and rave and talk junk about how the band is so money hungry....and won\'t play for who and who.
Feb. 1st gig at my house-$100.00 to get in 5 sets of the breakfast
