didn\'t say he needed a guitar player. I personally like the band as it was but that doesn\'t seem to put asses in the seats now does it. nor does this need to be named the breakfast
And cannot stand horns ? seriously ?
No classical music ?
No Ska ?
No NOLA music
No Garage A Trois ?
No Reggae
You are missing out.
Garcia didn\'t NEED a rhythm guitar player either but it didn\'t stop them from having one
Yeah I really do hate horns. Maybe running finger nails down a chalkboard could be an instrument? I don\'t know. Not my dig. Don\'t think I\'m really missing out. I used to listen to Ska when I was like 11 years old. I enjoy Reggae but not Reggae that\'s loaded up with too much horns. I like some classical music but only if it\'s not chock full of horns.
Good luck finding a guitar player who compliments Tim Palmieri as perfectly as Bobby Weir did Mr. Garcia. I\'m a huge Bobby fan though so what can I say.
Horn haters are people too!
also they\'ve had great sets at moe.down, 10 thousand lakes and camp bisco, but the large festival sets are sparse, and they generally play local lowkey festivals year to year.
NO!!! I DON\'T SELL CHILDREN!!!
pretty sure you were spotted selling alcohol out of your car in the local high school parking lot.
Reminds me of a young Stevie in terms of enthusiasm and front-row ragin\' it.
True, his ideas have been done before.
Most of the old heads have given up on even really trying to promote the band anymore.
Psychedelic Breakfast actually did start to gain momentum for a while back in the days when a lot of you long-timers had this kind of enthusiasm and positive outlook.
I\'m not innocent in this either.
Nobody wants to bring first timers to a show to have it turn out to be an underattended dooze.
The new argument seems to be "it\'s not our job to make Breakfast successful". Yeah, true.
Fans like Kevin are the future for this band. Actually there\'s a bunch of kids like a half-generation younger than me around here who share this kind of enthusiasm and would probably go to twice as many shows if so many weren\'t at 21+ venues.
There\'s a reason Northampton is one of the best places for the band to play
It would probably be more appropriate to give Kevin, his buddies, and a few other groups of younger fans around here credit where it\'s due.
We\'re lucky there are still people with the positivity and energy to keep our favorite band on stage.
Lot of good points right there.
Ken, something that has always eluded me is what is your profession?? How does one have the time to work, go to as many shows as you do, and make all those crazy dvd\'s as well. My guess is selling children internationally, make a couple phone calls, book a couple flights. 6 or 7 solid transactions and your set for the year.
Great question......
NO!!! I DON\'T SELL CHILDREN!!!
If you people really want to know what I do,then I\'ll tell you.
Ever see the movie Midnight Cowboy?
Well, that\'s me. I\'m a man ****.
I comfort woman(only)in need of special care.
It pays well and I can set my own schedule.
I do role playing,bondage,erotic pole dancing,spanking...
plus some secrets I invented on my own.
You have to take charge of your life to get ahead in this world!
Ha....so wait I figured you more for the Dustin Hoffman character as opposed to the John Voight character.....Goes to show, you dont ever know..........Maybe Fred Garvin Male Prostitute......
wow look at all these responses. i am a huge breakfast fan, obviously not as big as you guys... YET! im trying so hard to see them, plan to, so limited. i have alot of there shows, cant wait for there new cd. whats up with the keyboardist? why can\'t he tour? if they are poor, the only way to make money is to get out there and the more money they make the bigger places they should tour. have they ever, like EVER tried to play at a bigger venu or a festival? I know they were at the Jammys for a year and won an award or two, which further shows there amazing talent. Tim and Andrian, probably one of the greatest duos since duane and dickey, even though they play different instruments. you know what i mean. well i guess i have to explore more shows, get out there and see them. there new albums gonna kick ass. ill be around.
The amount of shows one has seen, or the amount of years having been a fan, doesnt make one fan "bigger" than another in my opinion. All you need is to have a passion for the band and their music. It truly makes me smile knowing that there are kids out there willing to open their minds to the music of the breakfast. You guys are the ones that are going to turn this around. It is better to burn out, than to fade away, and incomprehensably to me, these guys are not burnt out and putting out the best music of the bands existance, thanks to their limitless talent and reinvigorated joy in playing together. and its finally great to see a little action on this, of late, stagnant pool of an internet message board.....MWaltz, nice first post. Hope you get your Breakfast sooner rather than later. And dont forget to make a small donation to thebreakfast.info to keep this stagnant pool free of West Nile carrying mosquitos.......
the story with the keyboardist is he left the band because he couldn\'t fulfill the touring duties, and they found a new keyboardist, who left the band because he couldn\'t fulfill the touring duties, but went on to other bands where he could fulfill the touring duties, so they went back to original keyboardist(which i\'m happy about), but that doesn\'t change the fact that he still can\'t fulfill the touring duties.
this should go in the band bio
Grow up, get over it and let the boys do whatever the **** it is their doing. When their ready to fully commit to this thing again, you\'ll know it, and it won\'t be because you guys tried to have a jerry lewis telethon for them.
I can\'t believe I\'m actually going to type these words.... but... I actually
agree w/ Captain Underpants. These guys will do great and amazing things when THEY decide to do them. We can all help out, but I don\'t think any of us could manage this band any better than the actual members are doing right now. :shrug:

Some of the biggest fans of the band I know aren\'t even on .info and have probably seen a half dozen shows or less! Strange Creek and the last Iron Horse show melted many a young mind!

I could think of a couple people... then again regional weekend shows are mostly all I can attend anyway so in a selfish way I can\'t really complain as long as the band is having as much fun as I am
I agree. Breakfast should expand into lunch.
or at least brunch, they are like kissing cousins...
i learned a long time ago,let the breakfast do what the breakfast is gonna do.
there big boys.
