I think Todd has fashioned his copy into some sort of necklace so he can wear it anywhere he goes
Edited to write an apology for my part in getting this thread off topic.
Read the article and it was nice to see the band mentioned on the cover as well as getting some good press.
Sorry to all for pissin\' and moaning.
I think you\'re partially right Mike, we shouldn\'t be wasting all of our time at shows "judging" others. Sure, we\'re there for the music etc etc.
Except for I can\'t help but feel a bit of disdain for those who try too hard to be anything. That goes for those who try so hard to be ANTI-everything as well. ESPECIALLY those people. So, I don\'t know who I agree more with here. I guess I don\'t go out of my way to make fun of anyone, I don\'t feel comfortable doing that really, but I can\'t help it if from time to time I get a chuckle watching some people on the dance floor. Also, as I\'ve said before, when someone comes up to me and says, "Hey, dreaddy mama...." Oh, god I hate that.
Incidentally, it took me probably 4 shows before I could do anything that even resembled dancing to FFT. I realized that I can only dance to it if I don\'t try to dance to it. Got to let it go, don\'t ya know.
Edited to fix the fact that I typed one word three times in a row.

Pretty impressive if you can make that claim!
I\'ll give it a try at Porter\'s on Wed.
I can say other than when I have my eyes closed or a little hottie is in front of me my eyes are FIXED on the 4 guys creating magic. I really enjoy watching Tim mouth notes to himself, Ron jumping around biggest smile possible raging, Jordan w/ that bemused look on his face as he whales away watching Tim, and trying to see more of Adrian than his flailing arms is a chore in itself. i will admit to being a person nay HIPPIE that dances quite radically due to allowing the music to move me. I try real hard to be aware of my surroundings but sometimes space is limited then it becomes a matter of keeping space and elbows are real handy for that.
cograts.. it\'s about time they wrote something!
Well done Diana.

Food for though is easy to dance to:
instead of 4 beats to a bar (1-2-3-4-1), there are 13, counted as 7+6 (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-1-2-3-4-5-6-1). This gives and extra 1/2 of a beat every bar, so simply hesitate for 1/2 of a beat and you\'ll be right on.
I already figured that out (not so specifically) and it is that pause that always kills me. Throws me off, don\'t know what to do with myself. So, I stopped breaking it down that way and just started dancing to the damn song.
You can show me how to dance to it properly next time we hear it at a show, ok Paul?
I love to do a humpty esque dance to fft

Do you have Dreads ? if Not why would someone say whats up dreaddy Mama ?
Is that like (in my best Joey from friends voice) "How You doin\' ?"
Sorry I kind of knee-jerk reacted to the post. I know what u guys / gals are saying when u at a show and people are being amusing for what ever reason and it strikes you as funny etc. I would admit to falling in to that myself sometimes.
Just got the issue today in the mail. Great Pics Todd!! The article gave a nice overview of the band w/ great descriptions of various songs. Nice quotes and coverage of the current Breakfast activities.def. a keeper!!
