NOTES: This show started as a doozie but people ended up showing up and staying while getting down all night. Chadwick used a drum mic for adrians vocals and they were amazing all night especially on VT Song. Also, this show contains the best version of Eschers I have ever heard the band play. Love Lake and Taboo come take my lead as hottest breakfast songs going.

NOTES: The first set had an amazing flow to it. The second set came to birth backstage aftrer much much pain and effort by the band to try and form a set. The Jam between Rufus > Puppetry was the best improv jam I have heard from the Breakfast. It almost sounded like a song on its own. Too bad it wasnt taped. And Psygn, Gladys, Question, Ep 3 in the 3rd set...are you ser?
