no **** about them coming back to moe.down..... at snoe.down I was really hoping Al would mention them as playing when he announced some moe.down bands. I would love to see them there again.

they could at least meet me halfway and play in Ohio for a weekend.

i would love to see them at snoe.down at plake acid one of these years (maybe next year?)

yo fireybill, we doing 5/3 in philly OR WHAT?

"I hope to hear a lot more festival announcements." +1
Gathering of the Vibes and All Good are my hopes.  Moe.down and Camp Bisco wouldn\'t hurt either.


They should hit up ATL, I\'ve met a few heads from down there and have turned them onto the breakfast in the past year or so (don\'t know when the last time the band hit ATL up was).  They should also hit up Ashville NC, cause I know there are heads there too.

Didn\'t they just get new management too?  Hopefully that\'ll help \'em out with the whole tour announcement thing.

Every ATL show has been poorly attended with the exception of the Brandyhouse show that coincided with Marcial\'s bachlor party.  And the Brandyhouse is now closed, which leaves Smith\'s as the best ATL venue for the Breakfast.  Asheville is also an excellent scene but the Breakfast have overlooked Asheville.  Also Athens GA is a great scene.  Both Asheville and Athens are better scenes for a band like the Breakfast than the ATL, which proves that the biggest cities do not have the best scenes.  I\'ve been saying forever that they should focus on college towns, which are always better than the bigger cities where you have an all or nothing scene.

Based upon the smattering of Breakfast dates listed through August, my guess is they aren\'t headed far away from home until at least the fall.  Exceptions would be mini tours based around festivals or prime opening spots.

Like that was a hard guess.

Hey Origen...What are you doing on this Friday, 4-20?  Come see my band play.  I\'ll draw 150+ to Woodstock (40 minutes from downtown Atlanta)

hit me up, kid.
I was just in Athens this past weekend playing @ the Boar\'s Head (a downtown college bar) and a frat party, and I\'m playing a Widespread after party @ The Boar\'s Head downtown on Tuesday.  Athens could be a good scene for the boys, but they would need at least a few very popular (around campus) and dedicated fans to really bust their ass and spread the word.  There is so much music going on for free / cheap that it is quite tough to convince college kids to come pay $10+ to see a band they have never heard of.  Fortunately for me, frats pay out the ass and I play covers so bars will pay me.  

Bring the boys to Atlanta and I will make them some new fans.  I promise.  

BTW...other than Smiths they would kill @ Mike & Angelo\'s.  its run by the old manager / booking agent of the Brandy House.  Also there is Club 29 (used to be Jake\'s) Cotton Club, Vinyl, Earthlink Live, and especially the 5 Spot in Little 5 Points.  There are tons of places to play and tons of people to see them.  

I would guess that they had bad experiences in Atlanta not because of the town, but because of bad business, poor dates and shitty promo.

Due to their highly progressive style, still think it will take sometime to fine tune a fanbase...and oh what loyal fans we all are, hope it pays off soon or later...

Any words on the next tour?

I\'ve got plenty of vacation days to use up.

:that: 4 weeks, 4 days a year and nowhere to go.
