The bands obviously hot as ever right now.
So now what?
Are they gonna keep building steam up to and all thru summer or cool off?
It all depends on if they keep playing.
Their playing is markedly improved when they play lots of shows consecutively. Recent case in point this weekend and the past tour.
Running fests only w/ few shows lined up in a row will result in a cool off.
Maybe.
We expect to keep moving right throught the summer. I will be honest in that there will be some disappointments, perhaps unexpected in some of the festival stuff.....but I don\'t want to get into that right now. Suffice to say that as the band gets bigger you find out who your supporters are.
Anyway....we plan a new CD, and some kind of DVD. We expect to cover the Midwest, maybe twice, and the parts of the south that relate to what the band does. We want to get into bigger venues, even though it means that band might have to open for some bands that you all think less worthy....it doesn\'t matter. Everyone has to do it and if we get in front of their crowd...we will steal their crowd. Its the best way to grow the band in a short time.
We want to send the band to Europe and are working on trying to get Real Radio out there. That would be the first move in making that happen.
But we don\'t plan on letting up at all. Its really just starting to get good.
By the way....this is what we WANT to do. I don\'t mind sharing this with friends that support the band. Just remember that things don\'t always go quite the way you thought. So don\'t send me pissed of IMs if something we all wanted doesn\'t turn out the way you thought. Remember, we are only a small part of the game. The promoters and venues have to say yes when we come calling.
nice! finding time and recording the new tunes would be great. though Real Radio should be put in the hands of thoes that dont have it first.
So dont start the European tour anticipation thread just yet?

SWEET! I am glad the band finally realizes this. Swallow that pride and do whatever it takes to get the music to the people. Leech off anyones fan base that you can.

no moe down or 10k lakes?

Now this is the type of mindset I am all about. Rock on. Play where they can just keep them playing!

I think this is a great idea....Hell, after he released
**** Brew, Miles Davis was opening for Steve Miller Band!
Just get these guys gigs in bigger venues and they will blow people away. nothing better than going to a show to see some band that you like and then having the opener blow you away and totally upstage the main act!:awwyeah:
Yeah opening slots let them show how great they really are.
If you have heard them on a huge PA and w/ a nice set of lights you have seen what they are truly capable of.
It\'s pretty impressive.

yea which is exactly what has happened every time I have seen the breakfast not be the last act to play
I could go on and on about how many times I have seen openers that were better than the main act!!! And, on one occasion, the main act got booed off the stage!!! :lol: I have said it for 6+ years now, this is the way to go!!!
