There used to be a band named Psychedelic Breakfast that would play for free and/or tips at Fire + Water Cafe in Northampton, MA and The Meadows Parking Lot in CT.

I saw nearly 10 "free" shows at Fire + Water Cafe as well as at several other places (Amherst Common, Quadfest x 2, Hawk\'s Nest x 3 etc.).  PB was often cheaper than the "All-items-for-a-Dollar" stores.  "The Psychedelic Breakfast Bargain Basement"!!!

Animal Liberation Orchestra def. takes the cake for being one of the dumber band names out there.. a step under Hypnotic Clambake, but one above Killswitch Engage.

talkin\' about stupid band names on this board? LOL If you understood that the animal they are liberating is the one inside all of us maybe it would not seem so dumb.
d00d I am aware of what animal is being liberated.. I don\'t need your schooling,brah, opinions are like ****...you all know the rest  
toss in Hairy Apes BMX for more dumb names.

The Breakfast has lost momentum in your region? Join the club.  Man I feel your pain.  Last time The Breakfast came south, Tim told me they may never play Atlanta again.  so I was honest and I said, I don\'t blame you, because ATL is too tough a place to play, cause there\'s too much competition.  I think Los Angeles is the same way - it\'s a brutal place for out of town bands to play.  As for playing bumfuck towns, that\'s not such a bad idea because every time I\'ve seen the breakfast in a small town down south, it was way better than any shows they\'ve played in ATL.  Places like Aiken, SC, Clemson SC, and Athens, GA packed out while it was dead in the bigger cities.  I think that college towns - not big cities - may be the key to gaining momentum.  College towns have a better vibe and a better mindset for grassroots type bands.

When I talked to Tim about promo stuff, he said the an LA radio station has given them great airplay and actually has sold out shows there because of this DJ. I don\'t know about any other part of the country, whether or not radio play comes into effect or not. I agree that college towns are more receptive to the band but, you need to conquer some big cities or you may never move to the next level.

Our fellow member Wayne Stielau is proof that the L.A. has provided some decent radio exposure.  

From what I have heard, the shows at 14 Below in Santa Monica have been very successful.  

College towns (preferably heady ones) definitely work for grassroots.  Look at Amherst from 2000 on.  That place was hooked on Breakfast and the argument could be made that shows there were better than hometown shows for a couple of years.

Well I\'m lucky in that when they do come they only play small places which are packed w/ Bfast fans but with the loooong time since they last came out I can only hope the crowds are still there.
