Awesome return to Hotel Fiesole

What an awesome night at Hotel Fiesole. We were excited about the gig (thrilled to be back after an almost 3 year covid hiatus) and thought it would be a good night but it totally blew away our expectations. The crowd was absolutely phenomenal. The place was packed and the dance floor couldn't hold all the dancers- people were dancing all over the place. And, as usual, those not dancing were singing and tapping their feet in their seats. Everybody was having a blast- and we were too.

We need to send an special shout out to Jay who invited us to play and tended bar all night. He couldn't have been more gracious and accommodating to us and everyone there. Thank-you Jay for your hard work all night. It was greatly appreciated.

If you weren't able to catch us last night we have three more gigs scheduled at Hotel Fiesole: March 18, August 12, and November 18. And if you can't catch us be sure to check out the other bands playing there because it as an awesome venue for live music. (Also for excellent food and drinks.)

So now that it's Saturday the second half of our double header weekend is tonight at the Trum Tavern - another awesome venue for live music. Hopefully we'll catch some of you there.

In the meantime: Keep on rockin'.

Don't forget to check our Schedule page for additions to our “2023 tour.”.

Double header weekend coming up…

We have a double header scheduled this weekend, February 10th and 11th. (We also think there might be a football game that weekend, on Sunday.)

On the 10th we are so thrilled to be returning to the Hotel Fiesole in Skippack. The Hotel has resumed live music after an almost 3 year hiatus due to COVID. (Fun facts: Hotel Fiesole was our last gig before COVID shut everything down back in 2020. We were also the next to last gig at the Hotel before the shutdown.) We play from 7:30pm to 11:30pm.

On the 11th we return to a very favorite venue of ours, the venerable Trum Tavern. Every single one of our gigs there has been a blast and we're never sure what wild stuff might happen. That adds to the fun. We play there from 9pm to 1am.

So make your plans now for what will be an awesome weekend.

Hotel Fiesole, 4046 Skippack Pike, Skippack, PA

Trum Tavern, One East Broad Street, Quakertown, PA

Hope to see you this weekend!!

Marchwood Tavern was rockin’ all night…

My first impulse was to write "we crushed it at Marchwood Tavern last night" but that would give no indication of the significant contributions of everyone else who was there. The place was packed with both familiar and new faces and it was clear before we played a note that everyone was primed to have a good time. The energy in the place was palpable and it was unleashed with our first song. It didn't dissipate at all through all three of our sets. To see so many people actively involved with the music by singing along with and/or dancing to every great classic rock song we played was awesome. We feed off that energy and thank all of you for it.

Of course the night wouldn't have been the great success it was without the yeoman work by Rob and his crew who kept the delicious food and generous pours coming all night.

We're already looking forward to our return to Marchwood Tavern on April 22nd. Let's get together then and do it all over again.

In the interim we might be playing at a venue near you so please check our schedule here on our website.

In the meantime keep on rockin.' And Go Eagles!!!

Breaking Curfew plus E-A-G-L-E-S…

Breaking Curfew plus E-A-G-L-E-S win equals a great night!! We weren't sure how our first gig at Hattricks would go since we were scheduled to play at the same time the Eagles were but it turned out great. We had a good crowd of family, friends, and fans who enjoyed our music while watching the Eagles pummel the Giants (They're all wonderful multi-taskers!) The way the game played out kept everyone lively and boisterous. Everybody was dancing, singing along, and cheering all night.

Hattricks has recently added a cool live music space- very spacious for the band and party goers. A big plus for listening to live music.

Shout out to Angie and Bob for giving us the chance to rock Hattricks. We have three more gigs there this year and we're psyched to return.

Another shout out to Brynely who worked the bar all night and kept the drinks flowing.

And a big shout to Bob and George who worked hard to get to big screen television up and running (there isn't one typically in the live music space). They saved the night.

We keep moving on with our scheduled gigs. The next one is this coming Friday, January 27th, at The Marchwood Tavern. That party starts at 9pm.

Don't forget to keep checking our Schedule page as we’ve added more gigs to our already busy 2023 calendar.

Until we see you again, as always keep on rockin'.

Great start to the new year…

We started the year off with a bang - Crafty's was awesome last night. The place was packed with people ready to party and party they did. We were glad to come out of our "mini holiday hibernation" and knock some of the rust off. (There wasn't much.) And it was great to get in front of a crowd again. We saw a lot of familiar faces and a lot of new ones as well and everyone was into the music.

Our schedule doesn't let up and we're back at it next Saturday, January 21st, at a new place for us, Hattricks in Hatfield. That party starts at 9pm.

We've got lots of dates already lined up for 2023 with more to come. Be sure to check out our schedule page to see when we’ll be at a venue near you.

We hope to see you again soon but in the meantime keep on rockin'.

Great finale to 2022 schedule…

What a way to cap off our 2022 schedule. As you know we played a new venue (for us) Friday night: The Local Tap in Lansdale. We're always excited to play someplace new as it gives us a chance to show some new folks what we're all about. There is a little uncertainty too with a new place: are we going to fit in our allotted space, will the acoustics be good, will people show up, will the beer be cold enough for Richie, etc. Well, The Local Tap far exceeded our (already high) expectations. There was a standing room only crowd most of the night with a good mix of good friends, loyal fans, and newbies to the band. And, as is usually the case, we had dancers, singers, clappers etc. Everyone was in party mode. The music we play is called classic for a reason- the songs have stood the test of time and almost everyone is familiar with and loves them.

Much thanks to the Local Tap crew for keeping the libations flowing all night. They offer a wide range of delicious locally brewed beers. If you love beer (and even if you don't) you should check this place out. Now we have a few weeks off to enjoy the holidays with our families. But we'll be back to work in the new year as 2023 is already shaping up to be another banner year for us.

We again want to thank you for the support you have shown us throughout the year. We couldn't do what we do without you.

James, John, Rich, and I (Bill) wish you all a healthy and happy holiday season and we'll see you next year.

In the meantime keep on rockin'.

Nearing the end of 2022…

Well, 2022 is coming to a close and we’ve had a great year. So much fun seeing so many people (old friends and new) at so many different venues. We have one more gig at the Local Tap this Friday and then we’re off for a couple weeks to enjoy the holidays with our families. But we hit the ground running in January with 3 big shows and we don’t stop after that. We’re setting up for another banner year.

We thank all of you for your support and, as we’ve said so many times, you are the reason we do what we do. We just love making music that people enjoy.

If we don’t see you Friday, have a happy, healthy, and safe holiday season.

Another new venue…

Tomorrow night we hit another new venue for us, the Downingtown VFW 4601 Lincoln Highway, Downingtown, PA. We’re always excited about playing at a new place and this one is in James’ backyard. Should be another fun night and it’s a good chance for everyone to party/dance off those Thanksgiving calories and shake out of the turkey coma many of us are experiencing. Party starts at 8pm.

Crushed it at The Dutch…

We crushed it at The Dutch. It was an awesome night with a rockin' crowd. There was a cool range in ages from 21 to...a bit older. There was even a group celebrating a 21st birthday that made their entrance on a yellow school bus- yes, a school bus. The energy was fantastic and everyone there seemed to love us and the feeling was definitely mutual. We feed off that energy and it elevates us to another level. We didn't want to stop but this was one time that we couldn't "break curfew."

As always, the staff at The Dutch was fantastic. They all kept the food and libations coming all night.

Thanks to Jenn and Ryan for inviting us to play. In the near future we'll be discussing more dates at The Dutch for 2023. We'll keep you all posted. Or you can always check out out our website for our upcoming gigs.

The next show is this coming Saturday, November 26th, at the Downingtown VFW. This is another new venue for us and we're excited to show those folks what Breaking Curfew is all about.

Hope to see you soon but in the meantime keep on rockin'.

We tore it up at The Trum…

We tore it up at The Trum. We broke out some new tunes, resurrected some we hadn't played in a while, and added in a few of our heavier tunes and it was the perfect mix. There was a great crowd, most of whom stayed until the very end- 1:15am- and even then there were multiple strong requests for "one more song" which we happily fulfilled.

Folks were singing along, drumming on their tables, playing air guitar, and of course dancing. Everyone was into the music in their own way which was so cool to see.

And Carly- what can we say about Carly except thanks for the yeoman work you did all night keeping the drinks flowing and the party going.

We'll return to The Trum next year- twice- so check our schedule page for dates.

Next Saturday, November 19, it's back to The Dutch. Hope to see you there.

In the meantime keep on rockin".

We’re back to the Trum…

This Saturday, November 12th, we return to one of our very favorite places to play, the Trum Tavern. Actually this is one of the very first places we played and we’ve been thankful for the support (thanks Steven Lewis) ever since. There’s always a good, enthusiastic crowd that pumps us up and keeps the place jumping! And there’s always something a little unusual that happens as well that adds to the fun. The party starts at 9pm.

We nailed it at Crafty’s…

It was a great night at Crafty's...we were so glad to be back. We saw A LOT of familiar faces- good friends and fans of the band (who have become our friends too.) There was a birthday celebration- Rich's friend Jen was the person of the night. She brought a bunch of friends to celebrate with her and they all had a great time. And there were a number of people who hadn't see us before who clearly we're digging what we were playing. The dance floor was busy all night.

As always we want to thank all those who came out to party with us. We truly appreciate the support. You are the reason why we do what we do - and we love what we do even more because of you.

We want to thank Crafty's (Megan) for inviting us to play. We already have two more dates scheduled for next year. We'll be updating our calendar soon with our 2023 dates on it. Check back to this website to see when and where we're playing.

Until we see you again keep on rockin'.

Great double header weekend…

Well, we completed our double header weekend and we posted two “Ws” as both gigs were great. The Phillies played the first two games of the world series so we competed with them but still drew enthusiastic crowds at both venues- The Crooked Eye and Friendship Fire House Social Club. We continue with this busy stretch this Friday at Craftys Taproom.

North Penn VFW rocked…

Well, we rocked the North Penn VFW- with some help from the Phillies. It was an enthusiastic crowd who enjoyed watching the home team crush the Padres while digging our great classic rock tunes. The energy kept building as the night went on and it reached a crescendo when the last out was recorded. Then we kept the energy level up until our last note- well past “curfew” as usual.

We always like playing a new venue and giving different people a chance to see/hear what we're all about. The feedback was so positive but we could tell that from the way folks were singing and dancing all night.

Thanks to Joann for inviting us to play and for keeping the beverages flowing all night.

Next weekend we have a double header. Friday is the Crooked Eye Brewery and Saturday is the Halloween costume party at Friendship Fire House Social Club. We're psyched...
