yeah, everyone could be doing whatever their doing better than how they\'re doing it at the present time, but thats life, no one\'s perfect.  why harp on the negatives?


Yeah you are right.  Everything is just fine, half assed business is the norm for this band so why should it change? People COULD be doing better but they are not so blow it off. Yeah great business sense you have there Jim.

They have a Booking Agency that has no clue about the jam scene and it\'s audience or even who is in the band they are booking. :sigh:

i hear you leith, but what the hell are we getting accomplished by bitching about it?  i\'m not saying it shouldn\'t change, but we\'re not the ones to change it.  i dont manage the band, so i am going to make the best of what i can do as a fan, and thats just show up and support the band.

That\'s not my point. Just that they could have taken better advantage of the time out West by planning a trip into Vegas during the week of Vegoose, but what do I care? I don\'t even listen to these guys anymore :sigh:

ummm, they haven\'t released all the dates yet, have they? so, how does anyone know where they\'ll be and when, without,, you know, that information? maybe you\'re right leith, but then again, who\'s to say until the full tour schedule is out....

when southeast dates do get tackled, please try to work in a saturday gig with ancient harmony. the two were supposed to play together back in 02 or 03 (and i was coming up to ct for it), but ah broke up the week or so before. i\'ve been dying for that combo ever since. i realize the financial implications of pair two bands just because one guy wants to see them together are rather dire, but nonetheless, it\'ll be a blast!
I agree (By the way I saw Ancient Harmony in Tallahasse/ Albany/ Atlanta last weekend and they are def. the 2nd best band behind the Breakfast right now)- to do this they need to play some southeast dates.  So why the hell not play the southeast?!?!?  I can do poster and flyers in Atlanta and Athens GA if need be.  I\'m telling you Athens is really receptive to bands like the Breakfast.  They had one bad experience in Athens in Spring 05 but that was on a Monday.  If they play here on a weekend I guarantee a packed house.

Anyway I\'m definitely flying somewhere to see the Breakfast this fall.  Probably Ohio/ Indiana/ Illinois/ Iowa and maybe even out west again.  Give me some more speculation in terms of which states may be included!!

Cool man!  Those were the best shows; the Atlanta show was a bit anti-climactic, being on a Sunday night at a venue that finishes at midnight.  But I\'d love to hear all three.  

Anyway,  we don\'t want to hijack this thread so if Gencs or Steffmo figure out the rest of the tour dates please let us know as soon as they are confirmed, or even before they are confirmed. And try to squeeze in some Southeast shows!  At least North Carolina - they\'ve got a tight touring circuit and overall NC is very jamband friendly.

Yet again their timing blows. They are out West a week prior to the largest jam festival in the west.
Vegoose just happens to be the 27th -31st.
Seems like a little better planning and they could have gotten some great exposure by playing a club/bar date in Vegas during the fest week.



ya but dont they have the freakout at toads?

or was that not confirmed.....??
