as the Jedi said, "nothing confirmed"..... I am not really worried. I have my fingers crossed for BAR. I have heard rumors that BAR won\'t pay enough, but I dont buy that.
As for local speculations I would be okay with Toads, but if the Breakfast was opening for Max Creek, it would be a huge disappointment and make me completely second guess the new management that they are now with. Which brings me to another question. Do the Breakfast have an acting manager, or is it still Ronnie and Timmy running that? What is up with the new company they signed with? I haven\'t seen/heard anything from them on either website. Not that fans are privy to all the new
**** that comes to light, but it would be good to see something from this company.....
What about the breakfast doing a private NYE? I am sure that would be hard to pull off with less than 2 months to put together, but then it would give them the freedom to playwith who they want (ie The mothafuckin PEOPLES BAND!)
well, seeing as it\'s on the toad\'s site, and the \'unconfirmed\' 12/23 show never actually made it there, it\'s looking like this is it..
half-truths and gorilla dust.....
Let\'s convince the band to go elsewhere and play all night. I am sure we could raise enough for that.
unfortuanately, I will not be in attendance either.
i will host a NYE party. the breakfast can play in my basement.
-drew.
dude,ill be there..btw,if it wasnt official enough for you guys,last night at toads the announcement over the loudspeaker went something like this..."and december 31st,max creek,with hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhspecial guests the breakfast"...i wanted to jump off the sky box...
i like Stevie\'s idea that they should play the 45 minute set and have gear ready to go somewhere else in the area and under some other name, such as the Wild Pack of Asscracks, and we can all merge and get a nice set. changing the name would just be so toads cant break their balls, however if they found out, probably wouldnt be too cool with it.
Actually Doc, that\'s not such a bad idea. Toad\'s probably wouldn\'t care as long as PB drew people who paid the 20 bucks. Toad\'s only complaint could be that all the Breakfast fans left and didn\'t stay all night to drink. But all the band needs to do to get past this is convince Toad\'s that none of their fans were going to stay for Max Creek anyways. So, if we get like 30 ticket-holding fans who are over 21 to sign something saying "There is no way I would stay for Max Creek after The Breakfast" then the band can play somewhere else for the rest of the night with no repercussions. Cafe 9?

Actually Wah came up with the WPOAc pseudonym. But that is what should happen. Sitting in Toads last night waiting for Badfish to come on, the house announcer was running through the upcomming shows and I was so depressed when he got to December 31st and said "Max Creek with guests The Breakfast"
How do you headline a venue on NYE one year, and then play the same venue the next NYE as an opener for an over the hill and far away shadow of a musical act?
Whats that place in Staven where the Freakout was cancelled because of a fight? Why cant they play the second half of the night at a place like that, with no real curfew? If they played the Toads opening slot with Creeks drums and keys, the band could get their equiptment set up at the second venue and just BLOW out of toads as soon as the breakfast set was over............
Listen to me now and hear me later....
there is NO WAY I would stay at Toads if the Breakfast played an opening slot for Max Creek on NYE...
As of right now, the NYE show is not totally confirmed. It should be confirmed by this Monday. If they play Toads, it will more than likely be an hour and fifteen minute set. Then Max Creek. But like I said, it will be confirmed (yay or nay) by Monday.
There is also a possibility of Cafe Nine on 12/17/04 (Friday)
It\'s not really the opening slot that pisses me off as much as the fact that they would be opening for a tired old band. No offense to the Creek or their fans, but it is going to be 2005 not 1985....
Why is there no BAR talk at all? I would think that would be such a great place for NYE or even any breakfast show. They get a great crowd, the people that work there are great. and there is a lot of room to move.
The Cafe9 show is something to look forward to, but that room is so unfriendly. Believe me, I had a blast and a half at the 4 Cafe9 shows this summer, but lets keep on moving onward and upward...
I agree with you Gencs on the whole Creek/BAR issue. BAR would be ideal; with a perfect size room.
The Turkey run will be nice thought....Porters > thanksgiving > NYC > Sullys......And that is what kills me. They play a sick local run on thanksgiving weekend and then fizzle out by new years...Oh yeah and lets not forget the Cafe9 consolation show in mid/late december.
