I was just reading that one of their many influences is the great jazz improv group the mahavishnu orchestra, does anyone know if the breakfast have ever covered any of their songs live???

Miles Beyond, though it has been much too long since the last play. Can\'t think of any others off the top of my head.
i know tim and adrian jammed a mahavishnu tune on one of those dvds they were handin out on new years... but i dont know what it was... it might have been from porters
The Breakfast has played "Hope" and "Miles Beyond" off of Birds of Fire. Tim and Adrian have also played "Miles Beyond" as well as "Be Happy" from Visions of the Emerald Beyond.
damn i wish i saw them jam out those tunes live im sure they wer awesome...
wish they still played em..
Well just post threads asking for them to be played non-stop.. Stir up some noise!! I for one miss BOTH of those covers and would gladly trade Shakedown St and Fire on the Mountain for them anyday!!!!
I remember Tim saying something to the effect as to why they dont cover them, "no one knows those songs. We play covers to get the crowd going."
At least us fusion heads have our drums and guitar fix...
they should cover anything off Inner Mounting Flame!
yea they should cover bring some of those covers back, even if you dont know any mahavishnu songs when you see them being played i dont understand how you couldnt be amazed, i know the band is def capable of churning out a great cover of any of their songs...

I would say this is a dbl edge sword. Music afficianados (sp?) would instantly know them and it would be a pretty big deal to someone like myself to hear a band try to do it justice, but i understand what Tim means by the above.
I\'m sorry I should\'ve been more specific. The general public doesnt know them, that\'s how he put it to me...
that just sucks for the general public then, they should listen to a band involving john mclaughlin and billy cobham cause they are true masters of their instruments.
You\'re preaching to the choir my friend. I have spent the last few years ardently trying to expose people to fusion and progressive rock, BUT they just dont seem interested. At least this fanbase doesnt, the Umphrey\'s fanbase on the other hand
I just think people have a lot of misconceptions about progressive rock and fusion (which are blanket terms, just like jamband), or people dont want to listen to better music or dont care.....
My thought:we\'re allowed only SO much time on Earth, why wasting it listening to mediocre music when you could be listening to GREAT music!!
