The video from the Rock School of Pittsburgh show at the Hard Rock Cafe has finally arrived and it was well worth the wait! The quality is amazing with three different cameras used and the sound coming through the mixing board – this isn’t the same old parent toting mini-cam video. A huge thank you to Michael and Jan Klein for arranging this – it is a great way to remember a really special night.

See the videos by clicking the tab at the top of the page titled BroRox Videos or clicking here BroRox Videos .

For those of you that weren’t at the show, the Rock School bands filled the Hard Rock Cafe from end to end with a sold-out crowd of nearly 500 people. Whether it was the advanced program, the venue or the energy feeding off all of the bands – each of the groups or solo acts played above and beyond anything they have ever done before.

Paar Broer played five brand new songs including debuting an original titled ‘Voice’. Covers included songs from four decades by Led Zeppelin, OK Go, Chuck Berry and the Violent Femmes.

There are extra videos available for purchase through Michael Klein. They are $40 each which covers costs basically. If all copies are sold there will be a few dollars remaining that will be donated to the Rock School program. Send an e-mail to brorox@comcast.net and we will put you in touch with Michael.

September is shaping up to be a busy month for Paar Broer with two benefit shows back to back. Along the way they’ll open for a few of Pittsburgh’s legendary bands.

This coming weekend the band will play the Beaver County Car Cruise at BeaveRun Motorsports Complex – September 8th at 4:00.  The Car Cruise starts at Noon with action all day long including a DJ, Hot Laps on the North Track, kart rentals, a concert with the Vogues at 7:00 and Fireworks to end the night. There will be plenty of action to see as well between the Car Show/Cruise and Motorcycle racing on the North Track. As an added bonus Andy and possibly Matt will be racing their karts in the local series before Paar Broer takes the stage at 4:00!

Donations will be accepted at the gate for the children’s play area at the new Emergency Center at Beaver Medical Center.  

The Fern Hollow Nature Center hosts their annual  Fall Music Festival the following weekend as Paar Broer takes the stage at 4:00 followed by Pittsburgh’s Blues legends the Mystic Knights! The Nature Center event is a great time with lots of music, food and fun featuring a mix of blues, folk, bluegrass, country and of course a little rock & roll.
