Bar East


About 24 hours ago from now, Breckenwood took the stage at Bar East in Manhattan, and it was an interesting one with lots of talent throughout the night. We found out we were the headlining band after we got into the building, which added to the night. By the time we finally got to perform, the tube amp Garret borrowed wouldn't warm up properly, so we ended up borrowing the house guitar amp as well as the bass amp. It started out iffy at best, but we all grew more comfortable, except Cam, who wasn't able to use 3 cymbals for the show he was used to using. We got a live recording that sounds really good (except for all of our mistakes). Garrett says Nothing Left to Prove sounds the best and Life After You is terrible because I don't know the song at ALL. Its on my to do list now. Before our next shows, we definitely need to get a few more rehearsals in. We even added All the Small Things to the set, which we still have never played in practice, and pulled it off alright, thanks to the crowd singing along. I'd just like to thank Garrett's cousins, Cam's uncles, Kelly and Claudia as well as everyone else who stuck around to watch us. As of initially posting this, I have found out that Bar East would like us to perform there again, so look for us in the warmer months!
