Ellis sorry to see you go dude, you have been one of the cooler dudes in the PB scene and you put on a quality light show 99% of the time. Except when that bright white light shines in my eyes. I can\'t stand that. Some times its a little rough on the dilated peoples.
Really tho, the few times we chilled were good vibes. Through your light artistry you have contributed to the awesome PB/Breakfast experience that has been and important part of my life over the last 6 years.
I don\'t know what your plans are, guess I\'m not really in the loop. But whatever you do, keep eatin them 10 strips
peace!

Have a life filled with light and fun! Good luck with your next gig! My camera will miss those colors and flashes over the sonic landscape of THE BREAKFAST music! What do we do now? Flashlights for the front row people? Wrap the guys up in X-mas lights?

My source tells me that Stephengencs is the most ecstatic out of everyone.
He now feels that he is freed and can successfully move on with his life now that Ellis isn\'t holding him back.
so they broke up
They did. It was a mutual separation. They feel that they both can now go and do what they have wanted to do for sometime without either one getting each others way.
they\'re like a couple scorned lovers, a few months down the road they\'ll be on the phone crying their eyes out "I miss you schmoopy" "I miss you too schmoopy".
LOL!
The distance is too much. I can\'t live without you.
I bet Stephengencs is on a plane to Colorado by Spring. Summertime wedding?

Steve + Ellis + phone sex = I just through up in my mouth a little bit.
I never thought about that but that might be enough for them.

Your lights have, in my opinion, increased the pleasure of going to breakfast show immeasurably, and you will be missed.
How ever, I will now have an extra pair of sunglasses, if anyone needs them...

Wow!
Didn\'t think anyone would really give a hoot about Upstate\'s departure. I for one am glad to see the kid go.
He has wasted our time and his these last 4 years. Finally he is off to do do more than sit around a hippie hangout in down New Haven. You have more offer the world start acting like it.
Get lost Ellis!
We never wanted you, don\'t need you. How hard is it to turn a light switch on and off?
Maybe you will be more productive in Colorado.
Eatad!
zeits se hwee!
Pay your debts before you leave, ****.

Greg
As we both know, it\'s been a pleasure for us to get to know each other through the past three years. You reside high atop the long list of ball-breaking pricks I know and have an immense amount of talent, as if I needed to tell you that. You truly are the Marvin Harrison of lighting directors, perhaps with the exception that you are still in your prime. Enjoy yourself and do well out west. I wish you success and happiness. Well, maybe just success.
You helped this band reach yet another height and things will truly not be the same without you.

Good luck Greg. I can\'t think of anything witty or obnoxious to say. I must be losing my touch. It started snowing way too early in New York Saturday, and by the time for Daniel Street rolled around it was too dangerous to venture out. See you soon.

As some of you already know, the rumor of New Years Eve being my last show is true. I\'d just like to take a second to thank all the fans that for the last four years have made this a truly unforgettable experience. I have had the time of my life touring with The Breakfast and i would not trade in the memories we have together for anything in the world. Between the guys on stage and the others who have graced the silver bullet with us, I would just like to say that you all have changed my life for the better, and it is because of the support and tolerance that you have shown me that is even allowing me to begin this next jouney in my life. I will always have a special place in my heart for the breakfast and the amazing music that I have had the privelege to hear over the last 4 years, and I look foward to great things for everybody involved. -J.Upstate

We\'ll miss you LSD. We\'ll see you on the flip side! and remember.. PWHNR ;)

I wish you the best in all of your new adventures man. You will be missed here immensely.
Follow your dreams and the cosmic carpet will unfurl at your feet.
The lights at daniel st were absolutely insane. Thanks man.
And thank you for all you have done here in the past years.

Greg "Johnny Upstate" Ellis,
I still can\'t believe this moment has come. Things just aren\'t gonna be the same around here without you.
The best to you in your venture out west. I\'m sure everyone will love to hate and love you the way I have hated loving and hating you for all these years.
Your talent is only exceeded by your confidence in your talent and that is one of the things that makes you a soul that I love.
I only hope that we have many more opportunities to hang out. You\'re one of the best, and I\'m actually kicking myself that I never took the many, many, many, many opportunities that I passed on tripping with you.
All of my best to you!!
All of my best to you!!
All of my best to you!!
All of my best to you!!
All of my best to you!! :sorry, repeater mode:
Love ya bro!, Billy C.
