less spacey doodling jams that really went nowhere
more straight rock and roll.
thats what i always dug anyways.
steve i agree.
what dosent help is when you got a handful of retarted "fans",going on and on on the "fansite" about how much the band was better the way they were.
i dont get it.
It\'s a fansite dumbass. I feel they were better and do not see them "making it" just because "they rock so much harder as a trio" pfffft!!!
Especially since they are a better band now........I dont get it.....
To you they are a better band, to me they are less than they can be and it saddens me.

Yeah like the rock jams they have now go places. :sigh:
Like i said....they have only played as a threepiece for 6 months.......its kind of hard to compare a band that had 7 years to create a distinct sound to a band that has only had .5 of one year to create a sound that would distinguish them from what they were with the keyboards........
and lets not forget here...Jordan left the band.....The band didnt ask for him to leave.....How do you think they felt when they heard the news....come on now....

To your first point.
Hey if i did not think there was some hope for this band I would not even be here.
Secondly,
If the guys were so darn bummed Jordan left that tells me they know the band is better w/ keys thus a reason Tim continues the atrocious keyboard experiment.
If they were so bummed why do they insist on trying this as a trio?
Just does not make sense to me
that\'s it Jordan left, lets pack up our
**** and go home....... sorry fans we are no longer playing music for you guys PEACE
:wave2: :smileywithsuitcase:

Obviously I know you still have some hope for the band.........i never said YOU didnt.....
They were bummed when jordan left because it was out of nowhere and without warning.....Tim is practicing keys and honestly I predict you will be eating those words at some point in time......Tim has been playing guitar since he was 3......keyboards on stage for 6 months.....
Just because they were bummed that their brother bailed out on them doesnt mean they dont believe in their music and talent....

I truly hope you are right and I do eat those words. I actually would do it gladly if it meant The Breakfast took me to the places they did as a quartet. I just do not think that will ever happen w/ the trio.
They knew for 6 months that Jordan was leaving, it was not a sudden departure just a sudden notice. Finding another keyboardist does not mean you do not believe in your music and talent. It just means you are getting another keyboardist. Why start over after 7 + years? Just does not make sense.
As far as Tim practicing great but there is just a difference in having four players on four different instruments and 3 on four. Tim does not have 4 hands and thus lies the difference in the sound they create. I have no doubt Tim can conquer any instrument he wishes however just because he plays it well does not mean they fit.
Well I see what you are saying Leith but I just disagree.......
Why not start over....The learning curve that would have had to occur would have been rediculous if they brought in another keyboardist. And I can only imagine the fan backlash that would have occured (Not that bands make decisions based on what their fans think, I am just speculating here).....And who knows, maybe there is a new keyboardist in the future...I hope not, but who the
**** knows?
And I have seen times where I thought Tim had 4 hands when just playing the guitar....I honestly believe that there is nothing that these 3 musicians cannot do.....
Yeah we agree to disagree here.
I also have wondered how many hands Tim has while watching him play a time or 2.
However I think while the guys are absolutely phenomenal and have an unquestioned chemistry, to think that a keyboard player is not out there that can keep up is ludicrous thinking.
As far as fan backlash, I can tell you from personal experience, The Breakfast does whatever the
**** they want to and
**** those that don\'t like it so that would never have been a problem just as it has not been one now.
No one said anything about another keyboardist "keeping up" it\'s about the chemistry, and throwing some random into such a tightly knit group.
he Breakfast does whatever the **** they want to and **** those that don\'t like it so that would never have been a problem just as it has not been one now.
ddaaammmn..
Lucky for me I happen to like it!
But really, bands that cater to whatever they think the audience wants, instead of following their own visionary musical path -- are ball lickers. At least Psychedelic Breakfast never licked any balls along the way.
i hear what everyone is saying, and it just comes to down to opinion. ive said it before, theyre still my favorite band but i do prefer them with jordan. im not going to lie and act like this change makes them a better band (imo), lay down and slide off my knee-pads before bed that say "your welcome T.B.". im just talking about how i feel about it, i know it doesnt pull any weight or really mean anything. and leith, ive never met you, and i definitely agree with you about a lot of things youve posted, but you become the whiniest most defensive
**** in so many threads. sorry bro, im sure we\'d get along just fine, but id have to slap you around every once in awhile to put your permanent period in check.
