I\'d just like to say that I am all for whatever the band thinks will be best for them to keep going. I also will buy whatever they decide to put out. Westcott!!

IMO....... this is 5 years too late. the people who would have shelled out top dollar for good recordings audio or video are gone but better late then never. but if your going to do it make these show available in a timely manner for Christ sakes. there are still people starving over the freak\'n NYE show.... put up the freak\'n audio files for 5o cents a song and make money..... i dont freak\'n get it?

Look, I\'m stuck in Iowa and 4 years ago I could drive within a 6 hour radius and catch at least one show a year. No more. I nor anyone I convince to enjoy listening to The Breakfast will drive to the East coast to see a show even if our only other option is to pay for a live recording. I play music and blow ALL my money and ALL my free time to do it. I do it because I love the thrill of jamming with quality musicians. I\'m not looking to make money off of it because I\'m not willing to tour. Touring is how a band succeeds and pulls in profits.

Unless of course TB wants to start doing studio cuts of show tunes. Maybe the next Weeds or Lost theme-song. That would generate more revenue then selling shows to a select number of fans.

Given what I\'ve said, I\'m only salty because I never get to see my favorite performers perform. TB. I\'ll always support you and continue to listen to all the CD\'s I paid full $$ for, but it\'s all in or all out guys.

nice, spacey! you should offer those up on other boards next.

I\'m not on other boards anymore.

I am going to get a list of all the DVDs available and post it.

This is something I have wanted to do for a couple of months. Have spoken to people about it.

While I appreciate the dvds and effort. They would be going to much better use circulating amongst people who have not heard or are not as fortunate to have the Breakfast in the backyard.

i also have a ton of these dvds and would love to see them go to people outside of the state of ct/northeast. i\'ll have a list of dvds up for grabs on here sometime this week.

if anyone wants to post/send/give me any b\'fast/side project dvd\'s/raw video I\'ll gladly post it online (LMA or bt.etree.org) and return the dvd\'s. I was seeding Harper\'s Ferry and Crash Mansion dvds (wasn\'t at either) for many months until I moved and lost the data.

*Want data, will seed*

also, I drunkenly mentioned to Ken one night that I would post the HD Kung Fu dvd\'s online, but I would like to get explicit permission from the band and Ken before I do anything, since they are the ones doing all the work (and would be highly paid [in cash] in my perfect world). yea/nay? (iirc Dave Livolsi started the group, would he be the one to ask?)

Speaking as someone who has never yet seen the band, despite being a fan for nearly 10 years, I am in two minds over this decision. On the one hand, I can see how they might want, and more importantly, definitely need,to make money and HQ downloads could be the way. And yes, depending on setlists, I will probably buy a few - well, I have bought just about everything else I\'ve been able to track down that they\'ve ever put out (still searching for that elusive 1st album though), so why stop now?!

However, on the other hand, unless by some miracle, I can win the lottery and can travel Stateside or the band finally get their deserved break and tour the UK, I am highly unlikely to see them in concert. For this reason, I am limited to what DVDs I can get online or via kind folks who have hooked me up with stuff in the past. I have seen hardly any of Ken\'s raved about productions and would dearly love to see more. Seems a shame.

Oh and if anyone could hook me up with the Kung Fu DVDs either...

Will be writing down the DVDs this weekend for everyone.
