It isn\'t a totally done deal yet.....but we are working on a bunch of co billed dates with New Monsoon. Their manager is a long time bud of mine. We would headline easte coast and they headline west coast.
Remember now....thats a work in progress that OI\'m sharing because thye conversation is heading that way. There are a lot of technical things that need to ne ironed out still.
thats a great idea. those guys are a good band. kinda like if string cheese was ser.

Any chance that the band will use Crescendo to leverage their exposure to new fans in other geographic regions, specifically by pairing up with other bands represented by Crescendo? Yonder Mountain String Band, The Motet and Ray\'s Music Exchange are all buzz names on Jambase.com. From reports given by Leith, it seems that TLG is getting huge gigs simply by their association to the same booking agency that Trey is represented by.
I would say that in the case of TLG some talent is being noticed also. It just helps a whole lot to be w/ the same booking agency.
it also helps that Dennis McNally is helping with TLG Publicity. Dennis used to be publicist for the Grateful Dead (and currently Ratdog) and he is basically calling in favors for TLG and getting them out there...

That\'s what I like to hear, thanks for keeping us in-the-loop, Vic!

what,exactly,are you on??
WSJ, you should try it tomorrow morning (well afternoon since it\'s Black Thursday).

Its farther along than that....we are looking at an east coast leg, where they need some help....and a West coast...were we can use help north of LA.
The point is to go into market where we can expose each other to each bands fans....hopefully drawing better than by ourselves.
Probably Feb/March of next year.

absolutely agree zurflu. opening for a band like Yonder in CO (and most places for that matter) would instantly gain a bigger fan-base. getting that slot cant be easy though.

so the answer is yes. if TLG wasnt with a big booking agency they dont have the kind of talent that could jump their status to well-known by the country overnight. cuz if that was the case........ wellll then again i just realized that we are called The Breakfast. still hurts, a lot. fuckin shame.
Let\'s put TLG aside for a moment; I\'m hoping that The Breakfast may be able to find some allies within the Crescendo universe.
Most of their other talent is based in distant cities (specifically CO), prime places to garner new fans.
Also, it seemed like the band was making in-roads with bands like TLG, Umphrey\'s, JFJO etc. a few years ago, though I haven\'t heard about their inclusion of the Breakfast since. I\'m hoping that the community is getting big enough that all chatter doesn\'t necessarily flow down to the message board. These relationships definitely seemed liked strategic initiatives that could be pivotal to their growth. Pairing up with well-known bands can surely be an accelerant to their potential.

Not sure who actually runs it. Cruzweb Designs redid the site. Not sure who maintains it.
I do all the design and code work (the gigs page and the mailing list stuff are all custom apps I built), the maintaining is done by Me, Tim, and Todd
-
hopefully their midwestern/ western dates fit perfect for when I am off of school for the semester break. if not as soon as I am done you may just seee me on the road with the breakfsat
-
Hallelujah for (hopefully) Midwest/West dates!

The weather in CT sucks, if it wasn\'t for my Breakfast addiction I would be here. I am not all that fond of living in CT. I would survive for longer then a week, I hope I would. I was thinking mor of moving to Cali, where I have a bunch of college friends out there. I know quite a lot of people in Colorado too. BTW, There is a reason I am called Spacey.
-
All I need are dates to be announced and I will start planning on doing a trip or just straight up and moving.
I give you a week out there in the Rockys before that thin mountain air has got you with an oxygen tank strapped to your back....
not to mention the altitude totally **** with your alcohol tolerance level..it is kind of a good thing to get drunk for less money though
-
Woohoo! It\'s about time, the boys deserve someone to do this grunt work. AND I do hope a central booking agent will help us out WEST (just so they don\'t go on tour while I\'m out EAST :))!

ahh Come On YOU of all people know the energy one can get from The Breakfast. Combine that with the natural beauty of Colo. and the temptation of the Pacific calling and Mountains can be moved by Spacey. Believe It!

Crescendo hails out of the great state of Colorado.
Sounds like more western dates in the future.
Welcome aboard.

sometimes i forget there is a breakfast.net
does dpeck run that too?

As for new booking. I like to see the base of operations is in Colo. That could mean more western dates as their contacts should be plentiful out here. Speaking of Colo. an extended run through there may be cause for another flight.

Welcome Bret.....
Best Of Luck!
The ship is on the launching pad and we await departure into the depths of the minds of a nation of people looking to get the **** down....
That has a nice ring to it.:awwyeah:

No doubt.

This is great news. Some good name bands on that list. I hope everything works out for the band and that the rest of the country can eat their Breakfast.
Maybe some dates in the West for the winter months? Be a nice vacation.
