The Breakfast just need to catch a quick break, fast. Perhaps they were had more band recognition as Psychedelic Breakfast and should of thought twice before the name switch. Although I hear care less whether they are Psychedlic Breakfast or just the Breakfast, it\'s all the same music to me. As for the solo projects, I think its great they bands\' experiment with other musicians and such collaboration may only lead to bigger and better artistic musical expression. Although many non-fans and fans alike seem to agree Tim plays too many solo shows, imagine how many notes he is able to play for an entire Timmy Solo Acoustic. Can\'t wait to see him live this summer.
:lol: I couldn\'t have said it any better, rujah!
I\'m new to the whole "jam band" scene, so here\'s my two centavos: I think if these guys could get identified w/the Prog scene, they\'d catch on fast. An opening slot for Dream Theater or someone like that. I\'ve been listening to music since 1964 and I just don\'t see AT ALL where The Breakfast is lumped in with The Dead and Phish. I mean, Jerry Garcia WISHES he could play like that. Anyway, just my opinion as a newbie.
I think the B\'fast needs to play moedown again. I had seen them a few times before but that was the show that got my face SERIOUSLY OWNED. I think they need to get on some kind of festival circuit. College shows are also key. I had\'um play at our house at UVM and everyone who left was blown away. I was working on another UVM show but my house was recently slapped with a $2500 fine for underage drinking. That was more money than we were going to use for The Breakfast.
**** you stupid drunk
**** who called the cops and MOTHER-
**** THE POLICE!!!!
P.S. Why does P-Groove get invited to Bonnaroo and not the breakfast?.....P-groove sucks
^^^^
because you touch yourself at night...
You don\'t but every Joe and Jane in the general public does....
that\'s why i walk up to them and hand them a cd, let them make there decision based on the music. like someone said, it\'s not for everyone.

this is what I\'ve been thinking for a while now. play a rock concert, my suggestion was like a lollapalooza or something, they\'re not a jam band, they\'re a rock band that can really play there instruments. I\'m gonna have to try an experiment. I\'m gonna try to promo the band at a metal show....... i have cd\'s going to the local radio stations to try to get some air play and a heads up to people out there for the Century show. just get people to listen to it and then the next trick is to get them out of the house and out to a show
I agree that the "jamband" labeling hurts them. They are a rock band that jams. They really can jam but the rock so much harder, thats probably why most of the doped up youngsters can handle the speed and ferocity that the band brings.
They might as well switch it to The Fast Break....
I love it. But how \'bout as the title of their next album?
The Breakfast/The Fast Break
Say it a few times. Wonder if the band would like it?
Labels do suck, people ask me "so what do the breakfast sound like?" i just say......."like nothing you have ever heard in your life" thats the most accurate description i can come up with.
Sorry to break it to you guys but The Breakfast are a jamband. They just rock harder and are lightyears ahead of other jambands.

First of all the reason they were lumped in with Phish and the dead was back in the early days Tims guitar palying was very influenced by Trey and they had a similar sound. This of course was during the time Phish was still touring so people wrote them off that way. I persoanlly was never that in to Phish but I liked Psychedelic Breakfast. They also played a lot of covers of the grateful Dead and Phish hence the comparisons.
As for your Jerry Garcia comment. Thats just plain blasphemy!!!!!!
Jerry could evoke emotion with a single note. He might not have been Robert Johnson of his day but he created his own style and sound and was 1 hell of a musician PERIOD. The world is worse off w/o him thats for damn sure.
I\'ve never been a fan of the term "jamband", way to general of a term these days. Down with genres!

i second that emotion.....
Prog, fusion, jamband, indie, jazz... all of them are blanket statements. However, lamens terms are needed to make the dollar go round. So there you have it.
The fans suck. That\'s what kills this band.
BOO ALL OF YOU!
