Favorite Breakfast Song: Hmmmm... I\'d have to say Question Mark is the one that I push repeat on the most. But I love Rufus off the Bona Fide album.
First Show: 11/14/03 Le Bar Bat in NYC. I ended up there by accident. We were a little put off at first because the band playing after The Breakfast had a weird crowd. But we stayed and really got caught up in the musicianship of The Breakfast.
Favorite Show: Bill’s Bar in Boston in 2004. It was the first time I saw them live since Le Bar Bat. I had ordered Deuce and Bonafide and had been listening to them a lot so I was ready to really appreciate the band. It was the night before some major auditions at school and I couldn\'t get anyone else to go with me so I went by myself, even though I knew I shouldn\'t go out. It was just so incredible to watch the crowd revel in the music. And then I bought the instant live recording of the show and it never came out of my car stereo (till someone stole my car stereo). Luckily I had made a copy.
What is your favorite musical note? Ha! B-flat below middle C.
Favorite dynamic? Sfz p.
Favorite accent? Marcato.
Marcato, what’s that? It\'s when there\'s a horizontal line over the pitch. You stretch out the note a little more and emphasize the attack...like marching.
