repetitive trancy crap...but thats just my opinion and i dont know **** usually!
-
What type of music is played by the Bisco\'s? If I had one guess it would be spacey, electronic jams. I know that is the E-tard scene from what I hear. I have a friend from Philly that used to love them in the beginiing but says their style changed.
-
hmm.gloversville on a thursday....i dont see it happenin...
-
if the breakfast plays at cafe zacqour in a week or two(from what i heard) you should go. it will be on a thursday though, i think.
-
gonna try, i\'m working on it.
-
you makin the trek to nyc??
-
it should be fun, last time was.
-
yes, i\'m only 1.5 hours away
-
hey,arent you supposed to be going to a rock n roll show tonite??
-
wow, get a grip folks! i envy all musicians first of all but i think the disco b\'s bore me and now even phish bores me. i think phish is great, but unfortunatly the db"s suck in my opinion. so the key word is "opinion"! if you are in the disco b\'s sorry for the criticism, i didn\'t realize that peoples feelings get hurt so friggen easily in here, maybe you can work on not borring me or maybe just realize i am one person out of billions and wont try to lose sleep over it. also i guess i never figured on the breakfast as needing help getting big.
-
Let\'s all just agree that Nickelback is the worst band of all time and then never put down another band again.
-
im not at all the type of dude who goes around smackin up ****...i thought you guys knew me better than that!!!
-
Oh yeah....and I\'ll be there for the bloody pics ;)

You prove every time you post how much a gentlemen you are Freddie.
If anyone were to take lessons on how to post on an internet board I would have to tell them to see you for instruction. I also feel that you are such a kind and true person that to ignore your advice to heed Walsh would be such a devestating blow to the universe that I will @ once take his advice and not talk trash about other bands or fill the board w/ trash.
So Mr. Wah please take my invitation to kindly take a 10 mile walk on this beautiful 9 mile road that ends on a cliff and take these headphones w/ a myriad choice of music to listen to on your way down. Thank you so much for playing. It has been a true pleasure.

Now I am not trying to single anyone out this quote just happened to be in this thread, but I am talking on more of a grander scheme as far as alot of posts over the last few months. It was just an observation? I just think that since this is the (basically) one and only site for info on Breakfast happenings that some of the commentary about other bands would be better left unsaid if it isn\'t going to be done in any kind of constructive way. I think that the Breakfast is a great band and I want as many people to get into them as possible, but if I were new to the band/scene and saw so much garbage being spewed I might think twice about investing anytime...that\'s all.
The Breakfast is an up and coming band who is going to need help from many to make it in new markets...I don\'t think that closing doors to other outlets/styles of music is the way to go about it.
I do not want to sound holy-than-thou because I am probably guilty of it in the past, but I try not to anymore. I just wouldn\'t want to see this board turn into a PT jr. That\'s all...or even worse the Jambands.com boards.
-
Yo Walsh, what band are you talking about? The only band I\'ve seen mentioned in this thread was SCI, and I don\'t think anyone said anything that was THAT bad..,..
-
However for the band everyone knows I am talking about it isn\'t just likes and dislikes it\'s berating the music, band and all around importance of said band to music. I am all for different opinions and I could care less about what others think of the music/bands that I love; however I know that others are turned off very much by the constant bashing of other bands that they prefer not to come around and deal with it...that was my only suggestion and I know for a fact I am not the only one that thinks this way.
-
I\'m not sure it\'s a matter of downing other bands\' talent so much as just having specific likes and dislikes.... to each and blah blah blah.... I think the whole point of a forum like this is to 1) share information and 2) HAVE A PLACE TO STATE ONE\'S OPINION.
-
It\'s funny how some feel the need to down other bands talent rather than bask in the utter positivity that is the Breakfast even being mentioned. The whole my band is better than your band crap is so unwarranted. I just fear that someone trying to get into the Breakfast that might love some of these often trashed on bands/styles of music might be turned off just enough not to care about getting into a new band.
Congratulations boys keep up the momentum.

yes, and actually they opened for PB at The Fire in Philly a couple years ago. Pretty decent horns that I remember

Definitely - even if he does slightly resemble Oddball in Kelly\'s Heroes (Donald Sutherland) when he gets going!!
-
SCi is a great band... definitely one of my favorites. I don\'t listen to them all that much anymore... I agree with what has been said so far as their style has progressively gone away from what I like over the years... but, if they are within easy travel distance, I will go see them live (and enjoy it) every time.

:P funny. thanks for re-sizing it. I have the full rez version also- that is really giant.

you guys ever see Badfish- good stuff, Sublime tribute. I\'m not the biggest tribute band fan but it\'s Sublime. I\'ve taken some pics for them, good bunch of guys.
-
Can\'t believe I saw Truffle on there.... these guys really dug deep... Truffle plays at a bar one town over fromme every coupla weeks. Good players, but suprising to see them on there!
-
String Cheese used to play some ok bluegrass.... they\'ve been straying farther and farther away from that though, and I really hate when they try to play jazzy stuff (with the excepton of Birdland, which I think they do well) because, in my opinion, they don\'t know jazz from a hole in the ground.
-
String Cheese doesn\'t sound like my thing.
Anyone have any more info. on the reach of Spin Magazine?

Ouch! Why the downer on the biscuits? Granted their newer stuff is not all that great (not bothered dling many of their newer shows and stick to my old (albeit mp3) shows)), but Story Of the World is probably up there in my top 20 songs of all time.

I agree. SCI is hit or miss live but I enjoy the heck out of \'em.

Jam scene mag.?
Does anyone like Stirng Chesse or are they pretty much overrated? I think i heard them at UMass & thought they were nothing special. Could be wrong though.
Hey al, gonna pretty much stick my neck out here and admit to liking \'em. Have seen both the London incidents they\'ve done and enjoyed both - easily the best gigs in 2003 and 2004 for me. Guess I\'ve been lucky as many cheeseheads haven\'t liked tours in recent years. Have all the albums and quite a few shows and must say their earlier stuff is better - more tunes IMHO - and as for live shows depend on their set. Sometimes they go very bluegrass, others more jazz or biscuits-like, while at other times they rock out.
