Title: Best Setclosers?

ooof Overexposure at the end of a Breakfast show often leaves me wondering can my mind and body even handle this anymore? I will be returning home at 5:00am or so.... another 20-25 minutes of sonic assault to close the set?

Actually sorta sure the only couple times I ever left a Breakfast show before the encore was done was when Overexposure dropped at like 2:00am or later and I knew the show was getting wrapped up with this beast of a song.

And by beast I mean its something to reckon with...... yeah good ****.... but it\'s been overexposed and I feel like it does more damage to my ear drums and brain cells than any other Breakfast song. I love intense jams but this is one feels like an exercise in how intense they can push it.

Too long and too tiring for the end when half of me wants to be back at home having a night cap before bed already. Think this may be my new least favorite in the "ser bomb droppers" category.

How\'s that for a whiney post

Pretty **** perfect.

overexposure due to the nature of how the tune ends, and its usual crazy jam

best 1st set closer by far is Metropolis!

agreed, especially with a beast bass solo

Set I: Metropolis, See the Light (inverted), Psygn
Set II: The Grand Scheme of Things
Encore: Funky Bill\'s Circus Cliche, Wild Pack of Asscracks

(Add some jams and segues, and that not a bad setlist up there, by the way.)

Don\'t forget The Chase. I know a lot of us are (or were) sick of it as a set/show closer, but there\'s a good reason why it\'s played as a closer so often.

Asscracks, scheme, OE, or Queeb

I\'d prefer TGSOT as an encore, but you can\'t complaign about hearing it at a show.  From 2004-2008, it was played a total of 56 times.  From 1999-2003, it was played 99 times.  That\'s more than a 40% drop off.  You\'ve just happened to go to the shows that they\'ve played it heavily.  As for knowing all the notes, who gives a ****.  A song doesn\'t have to have a long experimental section in it for it to be good.  All kidding aside, you all know my love for Ahoy!, but TGSOT is one of the strongest songs these guys have written.  Nuff said...

Oh yeah I meant encore.

I\'d rather have Scheme be the encore cuz then I could get home a half hour earlier. :duck:

Srsly though its like YEM.. great song but it\'s pretty much always almost the same. Heard Scheme plenty of times 5 years ago. At first I was blown away. Now I hope they don\'t burn 25 minutes playing it @ show\'s I\'m at.

If they\'re tryin to kill that much time with one song give me a Mayfly, Queeb, Puppetry, Hard Luck Harry, Rufus, EE Parts 1-4, Synergy, Mooboos, Gladys, Gravity, Tribal Funk Affliction...

You get the drift. For the most part I could care less what the band plays if they\'re on fire that night they could play Vera Street and Tricky Ways and I\'d love it. Best Scheme I\'ve heard is 2002-04-20. And it was a great set closer for that show. Guess I kinda like when I can\'t predict every section note for note :P

Scheme. End of discussion.

Wild pack is the best encore, not set closer

genius right? Dear members of The Breakfast: I hear there\'s a show coming up soon at Iron Horse? Damn wouldn\'t that be a sick place to bust out such a beatiful sandwich? All the young kids banned from these 21+ shows (yes I do encourage young kids to go to Breakfast shows they think its better than Phish and any other band they\'ve heard and they tell their friends and so on... u bums should do the same!)

What was I sayin. Oh yeah, simple question, simple answer, short random stream of thought. peace

1. Wild Pack of Asscracks
2. Tunage
3. Son of Simpleton
4. Living Daylights
5. Merge
6. Funky Bill\'s Circus Clich?
7. Taboo or not Taboot
8. Escher\'s Etchings (part 5)

there are several songs that can be put in a thread of its own as "best song to open or close a set". Songs that pop in mind are Honey Butter, Buquebus, and Phaddy Boom Baddy.
