New Keyboard Players from other bands?

[Stephengencs]

I nominate Genc\'s father.  Keyboard genius.  Search = done!

Isnt there a canadian moose you should be banging right now?

I can do 2 things at once.

[peaches626]

i say give the trio a chance....

[Wolfman]

Skip the keys and bring on Seanie Miller on mandolin.  They could bring back Bouree off the shelf and it would sound better than ever.  They could also cover some Mori Stylz tunes.  

But seriously, the first call has to go to Page.  Why not?  You can\'t reach the stars if you don\'t shoot for them.  People would show up for Page and leave saying "Holy cow, that Tim kid is better than Trey!!"  I\'m not trying to compare Tim and Trey, please don\'t even start that in this thread, I\'m just pointing out that you know some people would leave shows saying that if they came to see Page.  

My second choice is "Explosive" Joseph Wooten.  Yes, that\'s one of Victor\'s brothers.  Who has seen the Victor Wooten tours with his 2 brothers?  Explosive Joseph is every bit the keys player that Vic is a bass player, and Joseph can really, really sing too.  He\'s got mad soul but also has a rock edge in his voice that would translate well to songs like Drunk Monk Bar and Doors covers.  He would bring a huge new element of soul to the band along with some bangin keys.  I don\'t think he has any regular gig.

Problem lies in that, for the foreseeable near future, any new player would have to accept the going wage....

i say find a 18-19 year old prodigy and tell him to play what we want.... problem solved.

Keys are tough, everyone wants to be the LEAD guitarist or the bad ass drummer. the bass and the keys are some of the most under appreciated aspects of music. find a kid who knows the keys... give him the equipment he needs to play what you want to hear and mold him/her. shit if i knew anything about playing the keys I\'d be all over it. but unfortunately i laughed at idea of piano lessons :kicks self:

Not a bad idea - the key thing is being able to control the new member\'s ego, and it would help to have a young player who was exited to be a part of the breakfast.

And going back to Seth Yac, granted his lyrics would not fit with the Breakfast, but he has the perfect voice for stuff like Drunk Monk and Puppetry.  If he could be convinced to conform to the program, he would be able to do Jordan\'s vocal parts.  And Jordan being the best singer, that\'s the critical thing you have to replace.

[Klout]

I say we all pitch in and come up with a a proffessors salary and higher JWALL to do it

[Igziabeher]

they could get Kirk Juhas of freebeerandchicken and Al & the Transamericans.  He\'s toured w/ moe. before and grinds a mean organ.  can sing too.

[Me!]

Just give Save one key he can methodically tap with one finger....

:that: and shit.....

[kindm's]

Rob Barraco

That would def. increase attendance. He has a lot of his own music and I think he needs a more non-dead related job. Like when he played keys with New Earth Mud.

(yes I know its probably not gonna happen)

Neal Evans - Soulive

Paul Wolstencroft - Moonboot Lover

[BigMamaBlueberry]

Paul Wolstencroft - Moonboot Lover

actually, he played as part of Peter Prince and the Trauma Unit.  prior to that was Jiggle (the Handle).  get it right :biggrin:

speaking of peter prince, how bout Melvin Sparks?  tom baggot (moon boot lover, ryan montbleau band, etc.) books him.  plus melvin lives near me, so maybe that would mean more breakfast shows in westchester/nyc :batban:

[derickw]

new young blood!!!!!

there is so much undiscovered raw talent out there, no offense to any of those other guys I\'m sure they are all great buuuutttttt, we need a traveling, cheap, moldable keyboard prodigy that is like minded with the band and the fans.
