Court Rules Breadpig Band Isn’t Actually Making Music (WTF?)

Court Rules Breadpig Band Isn’t Actually Making Music (WTF?)

This shit just got serious. Now the DOJ wants a piece of breadpig. If you’re not familiar with the breadpig band, educate yourself and return to this post – we won’t hold it against you.

A breadpig ally at Harmonix (they make our instruments) named Matt kindly brought this to our attention in …

Harvard, #1 University In The World, Inspired By Breadpig Band

Harvard, #1 University In The World, Inspired By Breadpig Band

Surprisingly, the breadpig was slow to report on this one. This is not a poor reflection of the breadpig, rather, a demonstration that we, his mortal army, are indeed fallible. As we strive to be more like the breadpig, enjoy this tweet from fellow breadpigger, Chrysaora, who witnessed the students of Harvard …

You’re Not Rocking Out Correctly Without This…

You’re Not Rocking Out Correctly Without This…

Breadpig is always looking to report on the next great innovation in the world of Rock Band (or am I thinking of Guitar Hero?). When we got word of the ultimate vocalist battlestation, we knew it wouldn’t be long before it was getting blogged.

Oh, and it gets better. The creator of the …

Breadpig Band Takes New York, The Photo Collection

Breadpig Band Takes New York, The Photo Collection

The band went through a tumultuous year of ups and downs. Critics will debate this for years to come, but we believe our zenith was somewhere around our appearance on SpikeTV. We followed that studio performance with some shows in the city — back with the people, our fans.

Just a month earlier, …

Howard Magazine Acknowledges Breadpig Band’s Unprecedented Level Of Rock

Howard Magazine Acknowledges Breadpig Band’s Unprecedented Level Of Rock

Lisa Kawata knows it. And now our band’s hometown, Howard County (well, the county our hometown is in), now knows it, too. The breadpig rocks. Our “PR Guru” (not sarcasm-quotes, I’m quoting the following article) Mike Scrivener, scored us an article in the recent issue of Howard Magazine. Way to …

The Breadpig Band Rocks Out On GameplayHD

The Breadpig Band Rocks Out On GameplayHD

Not only was the band doing studio work in NY, we also had a live gig. This time, a full camera crew from GameplayHD came out to document the rock.

Once you’ve arrived at Nikki the Knife’s page click on part II if you want to jump to the breadpig magic. He’s Gameplay …

Weekend Of Magnetic And Rock Band Love

Weekend Of Magnetic And Rock Band Love

A LOLmagnetz shoutout on LiveJournal degenerated into a discussion worthy of the ages. It was pitched as a gift for Death, apparently.LOLMagnetz. You know. If you have a fridge. I imagine you don’t eat much.

I wonder if Death has a sense of humor.

Bret, social games guru and friend/drinking-buddy of breadpig, gave the band …

Joel Spolsky Shows The Breadpig Band Some Love

Joel Spolsky Shows The Breadpig Band Some Love

And it was on the stackoverflow podcast of all places!

Give the episode a listen and if you’re feeling lazy, skip ahead to around 13minutes in. Then be sure to check out Stackoverflow if you consider yourself any kind of developer. Even I can appreciate its coolness.

Steve and I would love to be …

The Breadpig Renaissance (How Many Times Can The Breadpig Be Reborn, Anyway?)

The Breadpig Renaissance (How Many Times Can The Breadpig Be Reborn, Anyway?)

After the Internet Superstar appearance, the breadpig band had a nice renaissance. To that point, breadpig salutes all of the new converts and thanks you for all the shirt orders.

Spintown showed some love, but I should correct a comment he made:This video was made by one of the creators of Reddit.com. I think …

Breadpig Photographed Rocking Out

Breadpig Photographed Rocking Out

Mike will have a big upload to his Flickr account when he gets back from some well-earned R&R in Egypt, but for now, you’ll have to settle for this single still — perhaps the best group live shot of the band yet. Adam did a really great (albeit thankless) job as security for …

The Yet Unreleased Breadpig Live in NY Footage

The Yet Unreleased Breadpig Live in NY Footage

Not only did the breadpig band do that SpikeTV television special, we also had some live gigs throughout New York City.

You may not be able to rock inside the New York Central Library, but we certainly did so right in front. Between those iconic lions, breadpig put on a show the city of …

In Case You Missed It On SpikeTV – Here’s breadpig’s National Television Debut

In Case You Missed It On SpikeTV – Here’s breadpig’s National Television Debut

The breadpig band doesn’t take the stage until the very end, so you may want to just let it cache and then skip to the final 30 seconds or so. I’d say this appearance – albeit brief – is on par with the Beatles’ first appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. The …

It Was Breadpig’s Best Week Ever

It Was Breadpig’s Best Week Ever

Oh yes, it was indeed a great week for breadpig. After the big launch of LOLmagnetz.com and their debut on ThinkGeek, the band went up to New York for some weekend shenanigans. I’ll have some more details in the coming week, but you’ll want to turn on your television-boxes to catch our …

Breadpig’s Debut Album Now Available On iTunes! (And PopCuts!)

Breadpig’s Debut Album Now Available On iTunes! (And PopCuts!)

Our friends at UFO Music used their music industry savviness to push our album When Will Then Be Now? onto iTunes. Don’t believe me? See it for yourself.

It will be spreading to the other digital music services in the coming months like butter on toast, but one other service believed …

Breadpig Album “When Will Then Be Now?” Slated For Imminent iTunes Debut

Breadpig Album “When Will Then Be Now?” Slated For Imminent iTunes Debut

Our sources tell us that it shouldn’t be much longer before our debut album is for sale on iTunes.

I wish it were all good news, but the breadpig band broke up last week. Jon and Brian didn’t like the artistic direction the band was going in. Basically, we got too big, …
