on the dreaded PT Umphrey\'s board no less. http://www.phantasytour.com/um/boards_thread.cgi?threadID=670765 I\'m not even that much an Umphrey\'s fan, but I\'ll call \'em out, nonetheless. boredom will make me do some crazy things, i tell ya(kinda like buquebus).

I would if I had a PT account, but I just lurk over there.. the UM board is def. some murky waters for you to be treading in, Igz- very ballsy thread over there, to bad everyone\'s such an ignorant n00b

Done. Those guys are pretty thick headed but it\'s a PT board so whatta xpect huh?

its that way on every board, you should\'ve seen how long it took freddie to win over the pheesh crowd. those bastards are tough as nails, but \'if you pimp it, they will come. its not like any self respecting music fan can\'t dig it after giving it a fair shot. its just about pointing them in the right direction.

"they own faces across the northeast on a daily basis."

Great job over there. They will get exposure and join the team. Anchor Drops = boring album. I listened to it just to give UM a chance. Real Radio is king!

its all in the delivery, if i just go to pt, and post the same cookie cutter bs on all 8 boards, then no one will give a ****, but if you get a rise out of them first, and then give some well thought out opinions and point them in the right direction, then it actually works sometimes. it def helps when people chime in in agreement, so i don\'t look like the only one who feels that wya.

I really don\'t think starting an Umph vs TB feud is going to get TB anywhere. Just my .02

its all about gettin the name out...
people will come
if breakfast was from chicago,phil wouldve already sat in with them
theyd be on the cover of relix
theyd be nominated for as many jammies as ump.confirmed

So why don\'t they move? I once recommended that to Timmy back in the day. You got to sacrifice to make it. Umphrey\'s were from Indiana originally and moved to chitown..... The ripples are still moving.

are you SER? they\'ve got a following here. you cant just move across the country and expect the same fan base or even expect to play in the hot clubs. they are doing it the right way and trust, 05\' TB will break out, o yes they will break out!!

2005=the Year Of The Breakfast

They just have to work double time for the exposure.

mcajam · « **Reply #12 on:** March 27, 2005, 08:29:08 pm »

what do you mean, play two shows a night, hand out free cd\'s, go on hot 93.7 and talk about RR? they also have plenty of fans like myself showing everyonec i know TB, bringing cats to shows etc. they wont have that in Chi-town

Everybody Has To Do Their Part Offstage,and The Breakfast Will Do Their Part Onstage.

I meant double time by touring more and more nationally, kissing major ass etc etc... As far as the New England scene goes, TB should be blowing up theaters right now. Shame they aren\'t
