Count Me In -- Extracurriculars

I’d rather let the music speak for itself, but I went to an AWESOME concert on Friday. You've gotta check these guys out.
I first saw Break of Reality five years ago. I was starting to get into more alternative cello music because (and those who have ever played a stringed instrument know what I’m talking about) those Suzuki Method books get really boring really quickly. I’d been playing cello seriously for a few years at that point and I didn’t want to play Bach anymore. It’s nice, but just too uptight. So my teacher pointed me towards Break of Reality. They are a group of four: three cellists and a drummer, and it’s pretty unusual. I think theirs was the first concert I ever attended, and when they came back the year after, I was psyched to go again.
Fast forward to this summer in Talloires, and there I was sharing the music with a friend over a glass of wine and a baguette. He took a shine to it, and because he plays drums and I play cello, we thought we could make try to do a few tunes together using Break of Reality as a base. Out of curiosity, I checked their concert schedule, and sure enough they were playing their first concert in Boston just two weeks into the semester. I bought my tickets the next morning.
So on Friday, friends in tow, we headed over to Berklee. I’ve been awful about seeing concerts, but I definitely want to do more of it while I’m still here. Good music, good friends, good evening. What more could a girl want?
