You know reading all this and seeing all the people signing up to trash the band simply shows there must be nothing to do in ST Louis. I mean geez folks they cancelled a show and might have done it for poor reasons but it isnt like they **** your sister and threw **** on your house.
God what a bunch of **** whiners.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. A band cancelled a show at the last minute. I hate them give me a break. -

this seems so unbreakfast like...at this point i\'m more inclined to hope that this is all just an elaborate hoax.

Fred, don\'t. He has a right to be pissed, whether he\'s overreacting or not. Let him blow off some steam. At least people care enough about hearing the Breakfast to get that upset over their not playing.
Bad form. Clearly. I can see where they\'re coming from, but ya know what, suck it up. Some days it\'s freezing cold out and pouring rain but I don\'t cancel my lessons because it will set a bad/frustrating mood for my week. This is their JOB, it is WORK, and work is not always fun, and not always rewarding. Clearly there were many people who were pissed and the last thing they need is this negative publicity. I have encountered people before who have asked me, "Don\'t you think the guys are kind of stuck up primadonnas?" and I have vehemently defended them. This move I cannot and will not defend. I hope they shift their thought process a bit as the tour continues, because there will doubtless be other unsavory venues or weak draws, and they can\'t just bail because of it.
Also, I am incredulous to find that they may not have even TOLD the bar owner (or whomever should have been notified) that they were cancelling. I really hope that that is not the case because if so, well... it\'s childish, unprofessional, and SELFISH, egocentirc... self-centered.... ugh. I really hope there is another side of this that I am not hearing. It sure as hell doesn\'t sound like the group of guys that I know and love. -

yes....i was thinking about going but i was scheduled to work this morning so couldn\'t stay out late and passed.
I\'ve heard plenty of breakfast shows. I think i even heard a show of the guitar player by himself. I was interested, but couldn\'t make it.Quotefor you to come here and say the band has no class is just stupid and ignorant
i beg to differ. I\'m just pointing out the truth. You guys say you know the band differently. I know them as the band that dissed St. Louis. They would have just been better off skipping over our city like so many other bands do instead of scheduling a show and then cancelling because the venue wasn\'t up to their needs.
No Class. -

the venue is good enough for Eric McFadden to play his heart out w/ the EMTrio. Not good enough for the Breakfast? Might wanna check his resume. $130 is a helluva lot more gas money for a 3rd tier jamband than $0.

LOL.
so the shittalker wasnt even there..
he was thinking about going..
thats laughable..really it is..
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
the band cancelled the show.
guess what?maybe there was a reason for it.im sure it was a good one too.
ive seen them play in front of me and my wife,period.that was alsso 5-6 years ago.
there a different band now.they deserve better things.how do u think it would have made them feel to play at some mickeymouse,hole in the wall shithole bar.
**** it,lets start booking them at the brickhouse again.lets see how fast we can move backwards,instead of forwards.
im sure it wast there fault,and i respect their decesion,per usual.
its the booking agent who should get the blame,and not the band.
lets be ser for a minute here.. -

i will say one thing. the .info population has grown substantially today
-

I have to agree 100% with Wah on this one. The booking agent really is at fault since it is there duty and responsibilty to tell the band about the venues in which they will play. If special arrangements need to be made, etc.

fuckthebreakfast> u didnt even go to the show. I feel for the people who actually had an interest and traveled to see them. now u have a reason to be a dick and you probably would be on here making a post about how they sounded like crap and had gave a sub par performance after seeing them play this shithole you call intimate

How are you pointing out truth. You didn\'t even go to the show. you were thinking of going but didnt becasue you had to work. So them cancelling didn\'t effect you at all but you seem hell bent on being a dick.
I have thought about going to shows and didn\'t. I didnt come on the board to blast the band becasue they played songs I wanted to hear.
So them cancelling didnt effect you 1 bit. You have admitted as much. But I guess you feel so much pride in St. Louis that becasue they cancelled a show in your hometown you feel as if the sky is falling. and are more pissed off than people who actually went to the show and didnt get to see the band.
I think it is official. We have are first true TROLL on the message board. -

regardless of what they deserve this is where they are at, and they need to show up for their responsibilities and commitments. they had a contract to play at this venue and they broke that contract. i think these people have every right to be pissed.
fred how would you feel if you lived no where near the breakfast and the once in a blue moon show gets cancelled because they don\'t like the looks of the venue? i\'d bet you\'d be pissed. -
-
Fred you are the best fan the band has. But I gotta disagree on this one.
The guy is being a tool, but might as well let him blow off steam instead of pissing him off even more. -
-
all im saying is the dude comes on here,badmouthing the band(our friends)and WASNT EVEN GOING TO THE SHOW!!
get where im comin from? -
-
CLOWN SHOES.
If anyone is surprised by this unproffesional and idiotic move I would like to take this opportunity to say \'I TOLD YOU SO\'.
The bands ego is growing at about 20 times the rate of thier fan base.
Maybe a road manager is the answer....but I doubt it. -
