Willie Nelson, Ghostland Observatory, Grupo Fantasma to perform at South Padre International Festival


Apparently, some broseph was smoking something funky in South Padre over spring break and came up with the idea of gathering a bunch of bands down there to play. He pitched the concept to his father, who ultimately gave him the money for it - so long as his father could pick a few of the bands. They came to an agreement, and now we have Willie Nelson, Ghostland Observatory, Foghat, and Grupo Fantasma playing the same festival. (This is not necessarily a true story...) This line-up is one of those "only in Texas" type things, but for the low price of $70, why not?

Voodoo Music Experience 2008 Line-Up


Voodoo Music Experience has become somewhat of a tradition for Breakfast On Tour. As you might know by now, it is where we dreamed up the idea for this little website. It is also a place where we have experienced two years of amazing music. Originally leaning towards more of a rock following, Voodoo has transformed itself into a three day, multi-genre destination featuring many established and up-and-coming bands and artists. Previously announced headliners Nine Inch Nails, R.E.M, and the Stone Temple Pilots are now going to be joined by emo-godfathers Death Cab For Cutie, Denver gypsy-folkers Devotchka, Austin BOT-favorites Ghostland Observatory, and ex-Fugee Wyclef Jean. Taking place in New Orleans, the tenth anniversary of the festival is also set to feature some of the best names in jazz and funk including the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.

Get excited people!

This is one of the new tracks from the yet-to-be-released album Robotique Majestique. I can't get enough of this song, especially the delicious beat.

Ghostland Observatory

There may be no party in a sad, sad city, but that certainly wasn't the case Friday, November 9 when Aaron Behrens and Thomas Turner of Ghostland Observatory took the stage at Warehouse Live. If the lasers, Turner's cape, and Behrens' long braids and glossy shirt didn't tip you off, the immediate dance party that began with the first note did: this was going to be a funky night.
