What ever happened to that Congo player that used to play with the band at some of the early shows in Butterfield? I think his name may have been Jim Mcdonald or at least Jim. I thought he was part of the band for the first few shows.
yea, Jim McDonald! what a great guy. I can\'t speak for him as of late, but He used to play in the same open mic house band that I did in college down in new haven. Havent seen him in two years, but I\'m sure he\'s still around new haven and doing his thing.
I\'m happy that the band has made a decision, and I hope the best for them.. I know I will continue to go and support their music, by dancing my ass off and telling everyone how incredible the Breakfast is.
Although I really really liked the original name.
Hey Alexander "Skal" Zurflueh, I am from Dartmouth too.
Now that the name change is all but official, it is no use debating it or criticising the new name. If we truly love this band, all we should do now is unconditionally support any decision they make. As for changing the nature of the music, all I can say is this: I hope they don\'t start making a habit out of doing 3-5 minute songs, and I hope they don\'t forgo guitar solos in favor of quick, catchy, lyrical songs. I am only one fan, and my opinion may hold little weight, but I was attracted to this band because of Palmieri\'s skill as a lead guitarist, and I live to hear the scorching 10 minute guitar solo coming out of his amp. If this is done over on top of some new cool catchy lyrics - great. Just don\'t get rid of the guitar solos and extended jams!
I\'d bet the farm that they won\'t change a THING about their musical approach. It\'s SKULL FU&K or die with these animals...
skull
**** huh wow!! if it opens more doors for the bands that is great and we should all walk through th doors with them and show support!!
Rustyd,
You live in Dartmouth, MA? Who are you and do you know me?
I hope everyone realizes we have NO intention on changing our music.
Some songts are meant to be 3-5 minutes and others 25-45 minutes and I expect that will never change!
Thank god!!!!
Hear! Hear! Pun Intended.
Oh well, here\'s hoping tb will do a Euro tour!!!! I mean, they\'re playing Canada with nero (another cool band) - it\'s a start.
(I can but hope.)
