Three Years Ago Today: WRRV Presents Breaking Benjamin In Poughkeepsie
Most of the time I find the Facebook reminders that pop up to be annoying. They tend to remind me of things I'd rather forget. But today was different, I got a reminder that three years ago today, WRRV presented Breaking Benjamin acoustic at The Chance. And what a show it was.
The band hadn't played many shows for the previous few years, so when they announced the acoustic date at The Chance, everyone was ecstatic. The show sold out quickly and they ended up playing 25 songs in the 2.5 hour show.

The cover photo wasn't from the acoustic show, they returned a few months later for a fully plugged in show at the civic center and didn't disappoint.
