Awesome debut at Eagleville Taphouse…

Our debut at Eagleville Taphouse went spectacularly. Great crowd made up of old friends of the band as well as people new to the band. One common denominator was everyone loved the music. The best part was that all the pent up energy to dance finally exploded and we had great dancers at the end of the night. So many people having fun- it became contagious.

Thanks to Corey for inviting us to play. There was some talk about having us return, perhaps in the summer, if we can find an opening in our schedule. We'd love to go back.

A special thanks too to the great staff at Eagleville Taphouse who kept everyone there well hydrated and well fed. All the food going by us looked sooo delicious we were tempted to grab some off the plates.

So thanks again to all those who came and enjoyed the night with us. We appreciated your support and your positive feedback. We hope to see you again soon.

Next week we're at the Local tap in Lansdale. Party starts at 7 30pm.

Check out the rest of our schedule here on our website.

In the meantime, stay safe and healthy, be kind, and keep on rockin'.

So good to be back at Cabana Bar…

Cabana Bar was our first outdoor gig (we love playing outside) this year and the weather gods were good to us last night... it was not as cold as we thought it might be and the rain showers held off until just about 10pm (which was our curfew.) We ended up playing straight through our 2nd set into our 3rd set as we had a great crowd that showed no signs of succumbing to the cool night air. As usual people were singing and dancing in their seats. We celebrated Cinco de Mayo with some cool specialty drinks and also celebrated a couple birthdays of good fans of the band.

Thanks to Steph at Cabana Bar for inviting us to play again this summer (we have 3 more dates there) and thanks to Pam and her crew for all their help and support throughout the night.

We return to Cabana Bar on July 21st.

Tonight we hit the stage at Great Barn Taphouse. Music starts at 8pm.

For the rest of our 2023 schedule please visit our schedule page.

Until we see you again, stay safe and healthy and keep on rockin'.

Back to back weekend…

Well folks, after a weekend off we have a double header coming up this weekend. Friday night, which is both Cinco de Mayo AND First Friday in Skippack we return to Cabana Bar to start our summer series there. This is a great outdoor venue and it looks like the weather will cooperate (though a little on the cool side.) Don’t forget to bring your lawn chairs because the place will be packed but there’s plenty of room in the parking lot. Starting time is 7pm.

We follow that gig up with our return to The Great Barn Taphouse on Saturday night. This is a cool venue too with plenty of space for dancing. Oh yeah, they have great craft beers and delicious food too. We start at 8pm.

Double the chances to hear great classic rock tunes and party with all your friends.

“Can You See The Rain?”…

Yes we can and we did…Those who braved the heavy rains- and there were many of you- and came out to Marchwood Tavern last night treated yourselves to a great party. I'm typically a modest guy but I have to say we smoked it all night- we played song after song that had people dancing, singing, and just having a great time. It got crazier- in a good way- as the night went on and more people joined in the fun.

We've said it before, there are great people at Marchwood and they know how to party and have a good time. We're glad to be apart of it.

Much thanks to the Marchwood crew who helped clear the space where we played and who kept the food and drinks coming at a rapid rate. It was all good.

We're back at Marchwood on August 19th so please mark your calendars.

Next weekend is our first weekend off in 6 weeks but we pick things up with full May and June schedules. Check out where we 'll be on our our Schedule page.

In the meantime stay safe and healthy, be kind, and keep on rockin'.

Kicked butt at Crafty’s…

I know this is becoming a very repetitive refrain but we had a great time at Crafty's Saturday night. It was what has become a typical Breaking Curfew gig- lots of friends, fans and new faces with everyone digging our music. So often we hear how much everyone loves the songs we play- great, timeless classic rock tunes- because they can sing and/or dance along. It's so cool for us to look out and see so many people on the dance floor but there are as many if not more people at the bar or at their tables moving and singing along with us. We can see that people are feeling good and enjoying themselves and that's what it's all about for us.

Thanks to all who came out last night and thanks to Megan for giving us this chance to play at Crafty's. And thanks to Frank and the entire Crafty's crew who did their usual great job keeping everything running smoothly.

We return on December 1st- we know it's a long wait but it'll be worth it.

In the meantime we're out and about almost every weekend- next up is Crooked Eye this Saturday, April 15th- so check out our schedule.

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.

Stellar night- again- at Hotel Fiesole…

Another stellar night at Hotel Fiesole. The place was full of friends and fans- old and new. Always great to see familiar faces but new ones as well. Most stayed until the very end which we truly appreciate. As usual we delivered a great mix of classic rock tunes- with a bunch of new ones to us mixed in- that had everyone dancing, whether on the floor or in their seats. We had another birthday party (Happy Birthday Frank!) (And Destiny too!)to boot. A party from start to finish- everyone still had plenty energy left after celebrating St. Patty's Day the day/night before.

We love Hotel Fiesole- a great venue for music (and good food and drink.) We're lucky to be returning there on August 12th and November 18th so mark your calendars.

Next week is another fun Skippack venue- The Dutch Tavern. We're there on Saturday the 25th and that party starts at 8pm.

A triumph at Tom’s…

We crushed it at Tom's last night. It was good to be back in front of a crowd after a couple weeks off- and what a crowd it was. There were so many of the band’s friends and many more people who were looking forward to listening to good live music. We played a wide variety from our song list including some new ones. Every song went over well as evidenced by so many people dancing and singing along, There was tremendous energy all over the place.

Needless to say, we, the band, had a blast as well watching everyone having such a great time.

A major thank-you goes out to the Tom's crew: Jack, Taran, Stephanie who worked hard all night serving up delicious drinks and food. It's no wonder Tom's is seen as the premiere live music venue in the area. It's absolutely one of our very favorite venues to play.

We already had another date scheduled at Tom's- June 3rd. Anthony was gracious enough to book us another time later in the year- October 6th. (Thanks Anthony.) You have two more chances to catch us in Royersford. We are psyched.

There are plenty of other opportunities to catch us; go to our schedule page and check out all our upcoming dates.

Tom’s is next…

After a brief break (one of us had the temerity to go on a vacation the past week) we head back to Tom’s this Saturday. We love to rock this place and the jam starts at 8pm. Always a great crowd there and we expect this Saturday to be extra raucous.

On a side note, our schedule for the year has turned out to be awesome and it’s just about full- maybe one or two more additions but that would be it. Plenty of our favorite venues but also a number of new places where we’ll show new folks what we’re all about. Don’t hesitate to check out our schedule page to see what we mean.

Great end of the double header weekend…

We realize there are many ways people can enjoy live music- from dancing like no one's watching to every song to quietly listening and lip-synching along with the band. We appreciate them all as long as it means people are enjoying themselves.

The second half of our weekend at The Trum was more of the quiet lip-synching kind crowd but it was clear everyone there was having a good time. We certainly had some dancers as well. Either way it was evident people were connecting with the music and we always appreciate that.

We always have a good time at The Trum and are a bit bummed we don't return there until September 9th. It'll be worth the wait.

We have a little break now as one of our members has the audacity to take a little trip. We pick things back up on March 4th at another one of our favorite venues, the one and only Tom's in Royersford. That's the start of a very busy stretch as we have gigs almost every weekend for the next many months. We're psyched for it all.

A very special shout out to Carly at The Trum for her hard work all night keeping the food and drinks coming and everyone happy.

The big event of the weekend is in a few hours and we're all looking forward to an Eagles win!!! GO BIRDS!!

Be sure to check out our Schedule page as we have added more dates to our "2023 Tour."

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'.
