Fire Brigade: 2009-01-31 at Village Tavern

We were impressed with Fire Brigade, "...a Rock & Roll party band consisting entirely of Miami-Dade County Fire Fighters." Ana summed it up with, "Very polished. Not bad at all for a bunch of heroes. These guys save lives and come to our rescue when we need them the most and check it out—they can rock the house too! I guess you can say they are hot..." Go to Fire Brigade's website at http://firebrigaderocks.com to check their calendar, playlist, bios, photos and more. Above, at Kendall's Village Tavern, we see Eddy Alarcon on lead guitar and vocals, Jorge Martinez on drums, Adrian Ballard on lead vocals, and Troy Manes on guitar and keyboards. As for the bassist, see below.
 

There's bassist Ryan Townsend on the top right corner, adjusting the sound system.
 

Adrian "the front man" Ballard was a fire breathing dragon on lead vocals.
 

"Phat" Eddy Alarcon on lead guitar and vocals. Flames belched from his Gibson Les Paul but no one dialed 911.
 

Newest member Troy Manes on smokin' guitar and keyboards.
 

Ryan "Rownsend" Townsend on thundering bass guitar and vocals.
 

Jorge "The Animal" Martinez exploded on drums.
 

Special guest Bianca Alarcon sang Pat Benatar's "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" and "Heartbreaker." She absolutely rocked at just 14 years old.
 

Fire Brigade.
 

One Crown XTi 1000 and two XTi 4000 amps. Serious stuff.
