Catching up…

I’ve fallen a little behind on my posts…since I last wrote we’ve had two gigs…

The Dutch (March 25): An epic night at The Dutch- we always have a great time there. This probably sounds like a broken record but the place was again packed with family, friends and, fans. The energy was palpable and everyone seemed to feed off of it- including us in the band.

There isn't a dance floor per se at the Dutch but that didn't stop people from dancing in the aisles or by their tables. Those who weren't dancing could be seen singing along in the chairs. Everybody had a fun, raucous time.

An event of note during the night was our celebrating the birthday of one of the great fans of the band- Jimmy. Happy Birthday Jimmy. Hope you enjoyed "Rockin' the Free World."

We aren't allowed to play past curfew - 11 30pm - at The Dutch out of respect for the neighbors. However, last night there was such a clamour for us to play one more song we were given permission to do so (Thanks Jenn!) So we ended the night with a killer version of "Highway to hell." Everyone was thus able to go home satisfied.

All in all a fantastic, fun party night. In other words a typical Breaking Curfew gig.

And then Hattricks (last night): It was a dark and stormy night...seriously, it was a very dark and very stormy night (though thankfully no tornado.)Torrential rains and fierce winds tried to put the kibash on our gig at Hattricks but we would have none of it. We sloshed through small streams and lakes to be sure we were set up on time. (Actually the worst of it was over by the time our gig was scheduled to start.)

We were moved to the inside bar due to the weather (there was some water seepage under the doors of the new large venue space.) It was a nice and warm space and we had a great turnout again of our good friends. We can always count on their support and they came through again last night. Though there was no dance floor that didn't stop anyone from singing along and dancing in their seats.

We played and played until a little after midnight - our curfew- but there were loud and imploring calls for an encore and we so obliged. Another curfew broken. And everyone left satisfied.

Thanks again to all who came up last night and partied with us. Also, thanks to Bob and Angie for their support throughout the night. We return to Hattricks on July 15th but we have a few (!) gigs scheduled between now and then- and after then too. Next week, April 8th, is Crafty's in Warminster. Starts at 9pm.
