The top bar isn't "too" busy in my opinion, but unnecessarily busy.
The icons are rather small and they don't really help identifying the 
meaning of the content that they present.
I probably would omit them and make use of the extra space that gets 
available; maybe size up the font!
Same is true for the secondary menu.

But before we go into detail here too much:
What is actually the content of the first FB release?
Some list of current and planned features are necessary to group/layout 
the menus properly. Is something like that maintained?

@Sean: where is the current menu text from?

All in all I like the result of building upon the framework Sean chose 
for the theme!
