Broken Record Gospel Goes It's Seperate Ways

Today I am sad to announce, Broken Record Gospel is parting ways. Ben has left to pursue another project. Andy and myself are putting together a new band. It's a sad time for all of us. We worked really hard at something and now it's over. Thanks to all of you. Sorry we let you down. I know everyone is a part of BRG, that's what made it so special. We will do our best to rock you in the future.
Many Thanks,
Colin, Andy, Ben

Booking A Tour For Your Friends

I've been helping The Hero And The Victor book their first tour. We were supposed to go with them, but had to cancel. So far so good. Although I'm really jealous that they get to go out, and I don't. I guess that's just how it goes sometimes. So if you live out of town, keep an eye out for them, or if you can help w/ some shows, please let me know.(Through myspace.com/brokenrecordgospel, or by posting a comment here) I've been playing with some new guys lately. It's been really amazing. I think we all have a lot of emotions and what not, going on with us from our other bands, life in general, all the good stuff. Mostly we all just want to play music constantly. Write creative, original music. All really being dedicated. Keep checking back for more details. It's still really new. What's new with BRG? We are still playing. Although it's been awhile since we've wrote anything new. Ben's been playing and recording w/ his other band. Andy and me have been hanging out a lot lately. Swimming, playing music, having drinks @ the bars of Bakersfield. There will be news about BRG soon. Once we can all get in the same room at the same time. We are playing June 24th @ The Boiler Room. Everyone should go. It's not often we play anymore. I'd like to see you all there.

Hello Hello Hello...

Thanks to everyone who came to the show last night. It's been awhile. We will be playing @ Riley's Tavern this Sunday w/ Stepsonday. I'm excited to play w/ these guys. They are really good, so if you haven't seen them yet, you need to. E>K>U>K had to cancel. Seems they ran into a touring problem. But have promised to come back very soon. So keep an eye out. We have been a busy band lately. Ben's been playing in a side project. As for me, I've been playing w/ a couple awesome dudes. Maybe I'll tell you more about that later. Andy has been hard @ work as well. Have no fear, BRG isn't going anywhere. Just keeping ourselves busy. There might yet be even be another project in the works w/ Andy, Leslie, and me. So keep an eye out for some new stuff. It's going to be a summer of music. Leslie and me are about to have our 2 year anniversary of promoting shows @ Riley's Tavern. There is going to be some good surprises, great bands, and hopefully all of you. Without your support we wouldn't have an anniversary to celebrate. Thanks.(It's going to be in July)
I hope all of you are doing. Out there in computer land. I really hope to see you at the next show. Also don't forget Gramercy Riff is having there last show w/ Jeff in the band,(and maybe ever) tonight @ Jerry's.
Take care,
Colin & BRG

E>K>U>K

Be sure to come out next Sunday and watch the ol' Broken Record Gospel along with E>K>U>K from Los Angeles. Also there's going to hopefully be a special guest...hmm..
It's at the Ol' Riley's Coral,you know the saloon surrounded by vacancy. There is no show tonight, but I'm sure Miss Julie would love some company, so stop by Riley's Tavern and challenge her to a game of pool. She likes that. Anyways all is well in the land of rock n'roll. It's been awhile since our last show and, I hope you all come out and give us some love and attention. That's really all we want. Talk to everyone soon. All our love. BRG

P.S. We are actually going to play.

You will know.
