jking, great story!!
:that:
as for me, i was a **** phish fan. i had moved back home to ct due to some financial issues in january 01, soon after the hiatus began. i didn\'t know anyone in the area anymore, and was searching for new bands to get into and shows in the area so i could meet folks. so periodically i\'d get on jambase to see what was going on around town. i saw psychedelic breakfast listed on there probably more than any other band. unfortunately i hesitated, due to a buddy of mine who doesn\'t like them telling me they weren\'t very good (damn you!). anyway, finally one night there was nothing to do and pb was playing at the colorado brewery in danbury (which i loved). so i figured, what the hell, i\'ll go check them out. there was NOBODY there, maybe 5-10 people who weren\'t there for the band, just for dinner/drinks. anyway, they opened with take 5, and i was immediately transfixed, by timmy especially. by the end of the show, i was completely hooked and my mind was blown. and i kept coming back for more.

i had heard about them through jill for a couple years, but had never really gone out of my way to see or d/l them. then on our first date, we went to see them. 12/31/03. my first song was mayfly. how could i not be hooked for life when that\'s my initial introduction???
we\'d known each other since meeting at hampton \'99 and doing big cypress together as a result. we kept in touch by running into each other at shows, then on phishhook (apparently i told a cypress story and she recognized herself as one of the people in the story). she came out to a few ancient harmony shows based on my (and some other folks\') recommendations and we were really looking forward to a nov/dec 2002 show where ancient harmony was opening for pbreakfast, but ah broke up just then and her dream of seeing our two favorite bands at once was shattered. i still didn\'t know what i was missing.
well, the next fall i was single and she was single and we really started courtin\'. initially our plans had been to go to miami for phish, but jill just ain\'t a flying gal, so at the last minute, we scrapped them. she promised that seeing pb would make up for it, and i warily believed her. so up to ct i drove for an extended stay. lots of nervous jitters quickly melted into complete comfort and familiarity and in the midst of that, she played a rufus for me. i liked it, but that\'s not where my focus was. so anyway, we\'d gone out for a nice and fancy dinner for our first real date, then drove up to toad\'s for the show, which was a continuation of our date. as far asi was concerned, the band could\'ve sucked balls, because i was having such a great time with her. but. like i said, they opened with mayfly. by the end of that opening set, i was blown away. jill kept telling me that i hadn\'t seen anything yet, but i was sure that if the rest of the show was anywhere near as good as that first set was, i\'d explode. as y\'all know, that first set ain\'t nothin\' compared to the non-stop insanity that followed!
now, here\'s the thing that will be indelibly etched into my mind\'s eye forever.
it had been a bad year for me and not a great one for her. finding each other again and really hitting it off as we had was an absolute elixir for our aching souls. especially for mine. so, he band is playing and the dick clark countdown was on the tv screens. as we got to midnight, and the band broke into auld lang syne, we had our new years eve kiss. let me just tell y\'all about this kiss. i still remember *everything* about it. i remember what dick clark looked like, i remember what timmy was saying, i remember the feel of her lips, the smell of her hair, the softnessl of her skin.... but then it all washed away and i was in the midst of the most cleansing, elating, joyous, magnificent moment in my life. that was the moment i fell in love with her. everything bad from the year had utterly disappeared and there i was higher than the moon on love. it was phenomenal. then, slowly, the sound of the room and the band came back and i stood staring at her, with timmy in the background. they then whipped my meager face into an utter frenzy!
so, to me, the breakfast is inexorably intertwined with our relationship. i know it sounds goofy and corny as hell, but i fell in love with jill and the band on the same night. in one fell swoop i found the band that mixed all my favorite aspects of other bands into a blitzkrieg of energy and the girl i\'d been looking for all my life, right under my nose. and if i\'d\'ve listened to the girl earlier, i would have known about the band sooner. so, extra cool points to her for that. minus three to me for not paying attention.

after eating an eighth and a half of some boomers istumbled into the tent somewhere between rufus and merge. my face had officially melted by buquebus. this was all at camp creek. we raided the merch and by the the folowing week knew al the notes to self titled and deuce. then i noticed that all of their shows were within an hours drive and being a fresh recipient of a drivers liscence proceeded to do mini pb tours.

art school> justin maturo>new haven green party rally 2000. ive found something that is a consistent good time and many memories later, here we are!
-
first heard of/saw pb by accident. i had gone to see uncle sammy, who was opening for pb at some venue in new haven during the summer of 2001, i believe. i only stuck around b/c i thought pb was a cool name. i was definitely at that july or aug 2001 tobacco road show. it was that show that totally hooked me.

My first Psychedelic Breakfast show was July or August 2001, I can\'t remember the date exactly. They were playing a late night gig at Tobacco Roadin NYC. It was a post show for another band playing in NYC that I didn\'t go to. I was there because my friends @ THG were promoting the show and had been booking a lot of good acts at Tobacco Road. I shot photos for THG of the opening act and was about to leave when I heard Tim start playing during the final set up/tune up. I thought to stay, and am VERY glad I did.
I remember once being a total A$$ and asking Tim if his influences such as Lennon, Zappa, Hendrix, Neil Young led to his "narrative" style of lyric writing. His answer. "Adrian the drummer is my biggest influence ". I always thought that was so kewl and humble and of course made me feel like a stoopid groupie fan for "assuming" so much.
One more comment. Jordan. I never really heard him in the mix until real radio. I mean it was about 3 years of listening to PB before I finally "got"
his talent( which is immense).

I got a flyer from a DJ (who\'s name I\'m afraid I can\'t remember off the top of my head) at a Relix magazine party when I was in Manhattan over new years 2002-\'03. He was Dj-ing during set breaks at The Breakfast show on NYE at Tobacco Road. I FINALLY managed to get in for the last set after freezing in Times Sq and it was a \'ser jaw dropping moment.
Managed to get to see them at The Melding...tour at Pauls Tavern in New Jersey when I was back in New York a few months later.
Been hooked ever since and I still have the flyer although I haven\'t been back to the states so I haven\'t seen them since. Maybe a UK show one day.....
-
^^
haha yep, a tiny crowd has never prevented PB from giving it their all
-
Saw them play alternating sets with Seth Yacavone on the melding of the minds tour March 2003. The Show was at Jake\'s Roadhouse in Decatur Ga. and there were exactly 3 people in attendance. But PB raged so hard it was insane. So now I\'ve seen every doozie they played in the state of Georgia ever since - one of these days they\'re gonna blow up in the south.

A friend of mine IMed me a few days before my first show (4.29.05, the day before sconnie\'s first). "are you going to the breakfast on thursday?" I was like, you know I never get up early enough for breakfast, what are you talking about? My buddy said it was "some jamband" from the East Coast playing at our favorite local venue. I said I was in, but I really had no idea what I was in for. The first notes of the show, I fell instantly in love. Tim sat down with my friend and me for a good hour after the show talking about everything under the sun, and I made sure that every single one of my friends would hear about them from that day on.
I\'m now saving up everything I can spare so I can fly East for the Freakout this fall and experience The Breakfast with the Wild Pack.
ahhhh, nothing like the hometown East Coast love

I went to take pics of an opening band and stayed for the MAIN EVENT and haven\'t left

Igziabeher had been pimping them around the moe.ron community and started giving me discs to listen to...thought they were ok on disc, but needed to hear them live. I first saw them 4/30/05 and knew about 1/2 the songs they played and even told someone dancing next to me about one of the songs when he asked me.
I have continued to try and see them when I can, although being from the midwest makes that not so easy. After meeting a bunch of the freaks (you all know who you are) that are friends with Igz, I really get the sense of community that ya\'ll have for each other and the passion you have for the band and the energy for them to suceed - it\'s contagious and reminds me of the group that I travel to see for moe. shows. And, how can I deny a favortie band of one of my favorite people...I\'m hooked!
I\'ve since been on Timmy Tour, seen the Good Time Boys, and been to Breakfast shows in 5 different states...with more to come in the future!

I heard about them a few times in or around 2000-2001.
Pretty sure I saw them back then too at a echo lake fest maybe a few other places but never reallly took notice.
The first time I realized they were sick was Webster Freakout 03 when my ex girlfriend dragged me there.
I\'ve been really into them since then.
Its been realy fun watching them get better and better pretty much every show over the last 2.5 years.
I am stoked at where they are at now. Feel like they are making a great name for themselves.
The energy at shows and the caliber of song writing these days is phenominal.
Really lookin forward to this summmer!!!!!!

The year was 1999: Heard a lot of screaming coming from Butterfield dorm (UMass-Amherst) and wandered into the show. Wondered why these rock stars were playing to a small (but very rowdy) group of University students. The show was so great and it was like nothing I had ever heard before. Seth Wolfman and I looked at each other in disbelief as our jaws dropped to the floor.
11/19/99...Good times Al! Here\'s my version, as excerpted from my review of the show:
"The show was 11/19/99 at Butterfield Dorm at UMass. All week I had seen signs around campus for Psychedelic Breakfast in Butterfield. Thing is, I had no idea it was a band. I thought they were going to decorate Butterfield with psychedelia and serve breakfast at 10PM and the whole idea was that you would show up tripping and eat breakfast in the middle of the night and be totally confused. I really thought this. I also thought it was the dumbest idea I ever heard, and had no intention of going...
So that night I\'m walking past Butterfield and I heard music inside, and I thought I\'d go in to check it out. That decision altered the course of my life in drastic ways..."

I just now realized that the date of that show is 111999. There\'s something freaky about that...

Having been friends with Jordan for YEARS before he joined forces with the other three, seeing Magic a couple times and being best friends with Josh\'s now wife, you could say I\'ve been there since the start!!! And NEVER regreted it. The only thing I regret is not keeping track of Magic transforming into Mokijam.
:lol:fixed ;)

I heard the band mentioned a couple of times by people whose musical opinion I respected on livephish.org. I caught my first show at No Moore Bar in Manhattan and was blown away. Download it here. (http://www.archive.org/details/pb2003-07-18sbd.shnf) The whole show had me moving. Two non-band related highlights are, smoking up on a sidestreet while dodging rats during setbreak, and the fellow who collapsed in the audience and was taken out. (I had the pleasure of meeting this unfortunate individual at the last Knitting Factory show and was relieved to hear that everything turned out okay.)
-
i heard rumors and rumblings and mostly good things about the band since 2002, freshmen year college.... didnt actually see them for who knows what reasons until moe.down 2005.... 10 months and 15 shows later i regret not seeing them the hundreds of times they were within like an hour of me in the past three years......:banghead:
-
dave peck kept harrasing me to go see magic. By the time I did they were moki jam. I took some time off from shows for a few months to save money, and by then I had missed 3 butterfield shows. After my first pb show I just hung my head in shame for having wasted the previous several months. been going ever since.

thanks to many visits to Schumacher at Eli\'s & some WPOAC\'s (like wah & jenx), I\'m forever stuck in this craziness of tB..... & lovin\' every minute of it :biggrin:

I\'m curious how you all found out about Psychedelic Breakfast? Because it dawns on me that if not for my first time hearing them, I might very well still not know about them to this day. Scary thought!!! ;)
So here\'s how I first heard PB:
There was a little festival at my college, Hobart & William Smith in Geneva NY, in the fall of 2002. A bunch of hippie bands were playing but not many kids were bothering to come out and check out the free show on a beautiful day on the big quadrangle lawn.
I happened to have a bunch of papers to write, so I was in my room which was in a down right on the lawn, with my window open in case anyone good went on stage maybe I\'d go outside and check them out for a bit.
I wasn\'t really paying attention to the bands, like who it was that was playing, but then I heard what I later found out was the song "Gladys Pimp & Kangaroos With Me". As soon as I heard this funky **** I packed a bowl, lit it, and ran outside while still smoking the **** out onto the lawn.
I was instantly hooked, **** the papers, "Who are these guys??" Nobody seemed to know so I asked one of the dudes running the gig. "Psychedelic Breakfast"
cool. I thought to myself I\'d def catch these guys again if they came around.
A couple months later, I reckon, they happened to come back to Geneva to this bar Jellybean\'s. I made a couple friends come with me and we ate some adult candies and had a great time. This time we were actually able to pay good attention to the band and realize they were really something else.
Every single show since then (up to 37 now??) has only reinforced my addiction to Psychedelic Breakfast. As far as I\'m concerned the name may have changed but these guys are more psychedelic than ever :D
