Old Fashioneds

These two are definitely ready to celebrate this holiday weekend with us on the patio!

Check out this review:
”Saw the Old Fashioneds live last night at Sturdy Shelter Brewing in Batavia. It was the second time I’d seen them perform and they were amazing! Every song a hit, every guitar solo was killer and vocals by Pat and Marco just gorgeous. They are seasoned musicians with such chemistry after playing together for so many years. (25ish maybe? Must confirm) I heard them perform Norah Jones, Elvis, Fleetwood Mac, Tears for Fears, Shania Twain, Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, I even remember some Flashdance, too! Check them out for sure! Great time!”

A Preservation Halloween

Halloween at Preservation is the perfect combination of tricks, treats and that Preservation magic —good music, good people, a bonfire glowing and just enough questionable behavior to keep things interesting.

And who better to put in charge than Blue—our big-hearted, sharp-tongued, occasionally inappropriate ringleader for the night? He’ll kick things off at 5:00 and keep the festivities rolling, which should probably concern everyone.

Costumes are highly encouraged, dignity is optional. Blue will preside over the contest, with gift cards going to the costumes that make us laugh the hardest and haunt us the longest.

At 6:30, Michael Marsden & Liv Antoinette of EQUALS take over the music, with friends dropping in throughout the night to play, jam and add to the beautiful chaos.

Come in costume. Come as yourself. Come sit on the heated patio or by the bonfire with a drink. We’ll have Halloween drink specials, vendors, great music and all the familiar, cozy, slightly unhinged Halloween fun you’d expect from Preservation.
