After seeing them I\'d say they are fine without a keyboardist, and I really want them to still play the older shit. It would suck if they just shelved stuff like puppetry or no glove. They need to just master it without keys. I\'m already starting to feel like I\'m o.d.ing on the new stuff and missing some of the old stuff.

And if they do get a new keyboardist, it needs to be a space synth player like they have in Particle or Ozric Tentacles, (or Brian Felix of OM trio) not so much a piano/ organ player. Space synth is bascially all Tim is doing now and it sounds great, and it would be easier to add psychedelic space effects than it would be to add complicated piano parts.

cobbers, third time im saying it now in the thread, but i couldn\'t agree more. i will love to see the breakfast in any form, but i really miss a keyboard player. their music is always great but i genuinely feel like its missing something now, contrary to what many of you believe. im waiting for the day until they add a new musician to the band, but until then, see you at knitting

I honestly can\'t think of anyone that could hold their own with these guys, and I dont\' really mean that in a "how many notes can you play" sense. These three cats grew up together, they learned how to play music together, they know each others in and outs without thinking. And honestly that was the, I don\'t want to say problem but for lack of a better word, with Jordan, he wasn\'t always right there with them. Yes it is something a new player could work towards but it\'s not gonna be an easy thing to do.

We\'re not gonna get a new keyboard player anytime soon, and they\'re really not looking for one. If it happens it\'s just gonna kinda fall into their laps, someone perfect will show up and it will just mesh.

theres a kid up here in RI that plays with a band called Daddie Long Legs whose pretty decent to bad i couldn\'t arrange a sit in... just as a treat or something. like i said he\'s in a band already but to have someone to just jam the crap out of a tune or two would be something else. i think the Coda sit in would have been better if there was a little more crowd energy

I don\'t know how anyone can knock Jordan. He was wicked good with the organ sound and the synth sound. There are very few examples of such diversity in a keyboard player. I like the new sound fine. They\'re all workin\' real hard. But after seeing Zappa plays Zappa recently, with like 10 awesomely talented players, I realized there is something to be said for a band bigger than 3. Provides some relief from Tim\'s full-on balls-to-the-wall guitar (not that you need relief necessarily, just saying). I\'ll take it anyway I can get it. But I\'d like to see the band continue to evolve and move in new directions just like this current period. Keyboards is the obvious choice. I\'m sure they want to make sure they get someone worthy.

Totally. Anybody they could find on keys would end up looking lost up there. The Breakfast have a huge catalog of songs now with 5 albums, their style involves explosive, fast, tight jams, with complex prog rock compositions that go through all kinds of key and tempo changes, and I don\'t think anybody could really keep up. Unless they just play space synth with an emphasis on effects. Any idiot can push a button and play a wicked effect, and you don\'t need to worry about tempo or key.
