The Breakfast, Kung Fu, Mondo Gekko Toads Place.
would rather get a dance untz sort of band in there such as the indobox instead of kung fu. (no offense, fu fighters..)
yes! interlocking breakfast box
so... should we stop **** around and start making things happen or what? who\'s got the indobox connex around here?! (have they said anything about halloween? also, do they draw any sort of crowd to connecticut? how about to new york? i only saw them on the boat cruise that one time. maybe do something in nyc with wounded buffalo theory, too? they draw well in the city and have a hell of a projections guy. actually, he just did projections at camp bisco. just thinking out loud here... could be ser times.)
FYI Indobox has not figured out their Halloween plans yet. Still in discussions. They would be a good band to reach out to, but they will be the headliner. Also, would most likely be in Boston area.

i think they should do but 1 halloween show, rather than a run. This will get everyone to the one show and it will be epic. the last 2 years the magic was somewhat lost due to the randomness of the locations of the halloween run.
:that:
this i completely disagree with. if they limited it to 1 show, then it would be a lot harder for people to make it to that show since its halloween and thats one of the few nights a year you have options. having it for a few nights has always been clutch because 1 you can have other halloween plans and still make a portion of the freakout, 2 it gives you the chance to dress up and celebrate halloween for more than just 1 night, and 3 if you want to do the whole breakfast run you have that option as well.
limiting it to 1 show will not give that show a likelihood to be more epic, just lower the amount of people who will be able to see the freakout do to conflicts. in 2002, i was at moe. halloween and was able to go to the freakout the night after in providence. in 2006, i was able to go to the freakout for both nights in new haven and syracuse and still see the biscuits halloween show in boston. why limit it to one night when you can celebrate it as many times as you can?
good points. more shows = more music and I\'m always ready for some more Breakfast!

^ i agree 100%
last year i did breakfast in NoHo > Higher Ground and then went to moe. in Al.bany
i am already ticketed for moe. on 10/30 which is their halloween show.... and i would really really like to do breakast as well - ideally on 10/31!!!

can the run be epic too? or is it only epic if it is one show. would the individual shows in that case just be very very good?
the halloween show at then end of an epic run would likely be the most epicist ever since they would have been practicing every night and have the brilliant combo of firing on all cylinders from said practice crossed with being strung out from aforementioned epic run.
this conversation is devolving.
-
one epic show vs. a halloween run is a good question...
I would think a run (in theory) would be more finacially profitable and generate maybe somore exposure than 1 show. No one says each show of a run needs to be connected to the actual FF. I know spreading it into a run may mean less people per show... but 1 show could limit peoples availability as well! Plus with a run you will get some people to chase them where ever they go... especially if their n00bs and they like what they see! Obviously this is ALL hypothetical...

"Iron horse is always a great place"
ummmm.... IHEG are the worst **** promoters around. if you want to be not allowed to have tapers.... and pay out the ass for drinks...
but i would be cool w/ one epic show... and would prefer it be on halloween then

I think a Thursday > Friday > Saturday run would be great...
something along the lines of Higher Ground > Iron Horse or Red Square > Toads Place would be awesome(or some configuration along those lines)... but again, keeping in mind what may be happening in the area could impact that.
thursday > sunday would be even better and make more sense with other fanbases and already announced events.
Higher Ground > Iron Horse > Red Square (late nite) > Toads Place

And, they should cover another album 2nd set. Iron horse is always a great place for a big show because of it\'s somewhat central location. and you know im ALWAYS down for a red square show.

ryan,eat a d.
seriously.
who gives a flying rats ass about a football game.
i could see maybe,MAYBE,if it was like the superbowl or something but what dork,besides you,wouldnt rage a halloween show because of a football game.
this must be some sorta practical joke...
a 1 pm football game at that.
its almost like he goes completely out of his way to be a complete doofus.
My point was that a Thur-Sat run would draw more than a culmination on a Sunday... Most of the FF weren\'t on 10/31 anyway... That being said, KF should not be on the bill... The FF has always been a PB/TB event and should stay that way...
i can agree with that.

Gencs, if there ever was a time to throw a meh around it\'s at all this Phish talk (and regular season NFL game conflicts). Let\'s open up the vault and throw bustouts into every setlist so people overlook the fact we don\'t take chances on improvised music anymore. Wow, a 6 minute tube! Way to raise the bar boys. Call me when Trey let\'s someone else take over a jam.
On a more serious note, long live the Freakout!
talk of phish in this thread is SOLELY for the purpose of maximizing the planning of the breakfast freakout. let\'s keep it limited to that, folks.
thats was my only point...

goshen fongoughlish campout....?! :D
might be a little cold up there.

I like the idea of a multi-band performance centered around the breakfast.
I think that a show in a city (NYC/Boston) would be better than a CT show.

i dont think u can really lump 00 in with 03 and 04 at all...

I\'m actually enjoying Phish more now than pre-hiatus (00, 03-04) because I know that songs that won\'t be stretched to 20 minutes for no reason... I enjoy the occasional jam, but when it\'s every song for the sake of jamming, it\'s annoying...

seen phish rumored in both Prov and albany. and Vegas.
Provy and Albany are the most frequent that I\'ve heard... Vegas I\'ve heard mentioned as a possibility but also as part of a fall tour run... and on a long shot I had read something about Hartford but I am sure thats probably not even a shot in the dark...
-

-
hmm. phish in providence certainly would alter the discussion... is there a city curfew out there or could an afterparty conceivably go until 4am?
and does phish know that the patriots have an afternoon game against the vikings that day? holy ****! someone get Red Light on the phone!
If Phish loses 100 fans to a football game, there\'s still 20,000 people in the arena...
If TB loses 100 fans to a football game, they\'re playing to 5 people at Sully\'s...

Everything I\'m seeing is that Phish is confirmed for Providence for Halloween...
That being said, TB plans their shows around all their side projects, what difference would it make if they worked around a couple football games that have more viewers in one quarter than all the shows get attendance for all of 2010...
-
i\'ve lost track -- what\'s up with the phish halloween rumors? i wanted vegas!
-
This could all be a semi-worthless conversation to be discussing them playing anywhere on the 31st if Phish happens to play in any one of the 2 biggest rumoured places that have been talked about...if they play at all. I know everyone will not get tix, but it would definitely limit the attendence, unless they did an after party in that city... yes they are rumours but I\'m just sayin is all. I guess we will know very shortly though...
-
ya like they band is really going to schedule the freakout around 2 stupid **** early season football games
-
It should probably be a Thursday/Friday/Saturday run, as opposed to a Sunday show during Football season...
- Giants have a buy
- Jets have the early game against the Packers
- Patriots have the afternoon game against the Vikings
-
NOTE: Everyone put in your Nov. 1 vacation request now!!!
is that official from the band? take off nov 1? :)
ha! no. not at all. sorry, don\'t mean to get anyone over excited here. i\'m completely talking out of my ass and getting worked up -- as per usual!

igz, i agree...
that said sat oct 30 albany midnight -3 am at the red door would be an awesome stop on the way to oct 31 someplace round ct on sunday.
::InCognito Hijack::
:lol: nice! see my original post re: post moe.! i forgot halloween is on a sunday this year. might really make sense to do a moe. afterparty on the 30th (sat) and then leave the true freakout for the 31st (sun)... i like!!

i know the indobox guys well and have booked them before in NJ for a show of mine. i can email with them and see if they have halloween plans. They draw well in Ct and NYC. played the Highline a couple months back. great band that i love to go see. cant wait to see them this sat

I love Fu and The Breakfast for very different reasons. I don\'t think it\'s advanced, just a different avenue by which we might witness musical genius. Oh well, I know I don\'t have much to say that isn\'t sun and rainbows, but still....Any performance is better than none!

i know indobox gets a pretty good crowd in boston, so i assume its similar in CT, maybe not as strong since they\'re from Allston. Either way, the Kung Fu addition on the Halloween lineup is a let down for me. Its the FREEKING FREAKOUT for christsakes, I don\'t want tim and adrian to have to spend half of their energy and preperation on a non breakfast set, thats short changing us Breakfast fans who look forward to this weekend every year to see the Breakfast do what they do best. And that is not shortening their set to make more time for Kung Fu and splitting the stage w/ them for the encore. Book as many Kung Fu shows any other weekend of the year, please keep the freakout holy for us breakfast loyalists.

Regardless, I\'d really love to hear some Breakfast dates far in advance so I don\'t plan something else (ala BreakFest vs. All Good) before the date\'s announced.
for real, bud. you were missed for sure...

Agreed. I love me some Fu, but it\'s too "advanced" for some dirty partyin\' on Halloween, imo... but who knows?

i know this is way premature for the breakfast to be talking about halloween, but other bands (moe., umphrey\'s...) have already made announcements and i really want to get my **** figured out.
personally i\'d love a 12-3am shindig in albany post moe. :D or i\'d also love a NYC thing, like we were supposed to have last year...
god i love halloween!
