and he should be worried by this?

he should.

our personalities blend quite effectively. if there is one person he knows where to go to get into trouble, its definitely me.

I hope he does, I couldn\'t live without him liking me.

Dear Greg Ellis,

I am sure you are pretty upset about not getting to fire up your new lights last night.  But dont be too dispondant.  I mean the little white halogen lights above the band were nice and didnt flicker too much.  Honestly I dont think anyone even noticed that there were no lights last night, so dont go beatin yourself up over one night......We\'ll get em good this weekend.....

Have a great day....
Your buddy,
Stephengencs

Okay....so Ellis is obviously delerious, and I have a feeling I know why.  His 2 new 60 lb+ scanner face melters arrived today.  He swung by the pizzaria and pranced  all over the parking lot until I came out to check em out.  He still has to figure out the mounting situation, but he was going to Toads to set up the lights and program some scenes, quite a happy Grellis.

I think that coupled with the fact that I watched him eat a BK quad stacker to the dome this past weekend.  Not only was it a BK Quad stacker, but the person who made it put on an additional layer.  So basically it was like this: Bottom Bun > Beef > Cheese > Beef > Cheese > Beef > Cheese > Beef > Cheese > Beef > Cheese > Bacon > Top Bun.

I couldn\'t believe my eyes as I watched him take the last few bites.  I could however believe it when he was passed out for the next 5 or so hours.  I am not sure how long Ellis\' self proclaimed "Hot Beef Injection" trip is gonna last but it is obvious that he is now on the other side......

What this means for all of us.....I would say grab whatever psychedelics or whatever gets ya groovin, cause The Breakfast and ellis-d are here to kick all of us in the teeth with sheer musical power and visual ecstasy

I would just like to say that this Boat cruise show coming up is very special to me.  Just about a year ago, on Aug 3, 05 the fist Breakfast boat cruise was my first show as the OFFICIAL LD of the Breakfast, it was basically the day after I moved in with Timmy, and it was my first experience in the van(boy what a trip that was), Thats why it is with deep regret that I have to announce that tommorrow will be my last show with the boys as I move on to greener pastuers.  I have just accepted the position of assistant LD for the upcoming Justin Timberlake tour as he travels the galaxy in support of his upcoming album SexyBack (hitting stores everywhere Sept.12)!!!  To all of those who have supported me and enjoyed the madness I\'ve brought, thanks.  






















Yup, thats right.
