Bad management and lack of touring for one thing.
You dont make it as a live act without CONSTANT TOURING.
Secondly the breakfast is very INTENSE and HARDCORE.
Not everybody can hang. It\'s too frantic for many people. A lot of people just dont get it also.
Total agreement here,though I would change bad management to disorganized management since Josh Kroop and the band parted business ways.
If the band had not gone into a hibernation after their Jammy win this subject would be moot.
I understand there are many reasons that we are not privy to for this hibernation but due to it they are starting close to ground zero once again.
I am positive if this band had the same touring schedule as UM,TLG, New Monsoon etc. for the past 2 years they would be playing small theatres by now. No doubt in my mind.
As for their vocals, well I remember when I was first seeing Phish and how pumped I was on the music and the edge they brought to it but way let down in the vocal dept. Did that stop Phish from becoming one of my alltime favorite bands? No and I doubt it will stop The Breakfast from becoming the same for thousands of people some day.
