  • Music Mayhem Breaking Benjamin
    Pennsylvania native rock band, Breaking Benjamin brought the rock show of the summer to Camden, New Jersey’s BB&T Pavilion for an evening of some of the hottest rock bands in the scene right now with special guests Chevelle, Three Days Grace, Dorothy and Diamante. Opening the evening was Eleven Seven Music artist, Diamante who put on an exceptional performance that included “Bite Your Kiss” her Bad Wolves collaboration “Hear Me Now” and her radio single “Haunted” as well as her new single “When I’m Not Around.” Her wardrobe for the show was a blend of rockstar and beauty with neon blue hair perfectly matching her black, white and blue snake skin shirt and black leather pants, completing the look with studded black sunglasses that looked like something Elton John would wear. Her soaring vocals were rather impressive especially during her performance of “Hear Me Now” which she sung all of the vocals herself which is normally sung with Bad Wolves. She gave quite the opening performance that fans adored and she definitely gained a ton of new fans after the attention- grasping show she gave during her unfortunately short set. Continuing to bring women prowess to the stage with a set from Dorothy who never fails to give a performance that leave fans craving more, singing hits like “Raise Hell,” “Down To The Bottom,” “Freedom” and her anthemic breakup hit “Flawless,” all whilst her flawlessly curled hair blew in the wind, just as you would see Beyonce’s as one of her shows. Dorothy included songs from both her debut album, ROCKISDEAD and continuing to power through a ton of songs from her latest album, 28 Days In The Valley, the album that was a fresh start for Dorothy Martin, as she released it after dealing with hardships, self-substance abuse and unhealthy relationships, she is now sober and living a healthy life which shines vibrantly within her performance which is impeccable with her vocals sounded better than ever before.

  • Our Burnley Ancestors and Allied Families
    Our Burnley Ancestors And Allied Families CO::\IPILED BY EMMA DICKEN THE HOBSON BOOK PRESS 52 VANDERBILT AVENUE NEW YORK, N. Y. 19'6 Copyright 1946 By EMMA DICKE'\ Dedicated to the Memory of Our Revolutionary Ancestor Henry Burnley FOREWORD In my childhood many facts relating to our Burnley family were told to me by my father and his sisters from memory and written and pre­ served by me. Later in 1895 Miss Sa~ah Donelson Hubert, of Norwood, Georgia, published "A Gene­ alogy of Part of the Barksdale Family of Ameri­ ca," which included records of the Burnley fami­ ly. Regarding the early generations, there were only a few differences in her records and mine, however she traced most families down to the younger generations of her day, while my family had lost sight of some of them after they had removed from Georgia. In after years we have devoted considerable time in tracing the Burnleys and allied families, personally searching vari­ ous county records and gleaning bits here and there from other available sources. Though most of the research was done some years ago, we have recently added a little more material. This we have been glad to do for future gen­ erations who may look back with interest and pride to a line of ancestors who have given them a good heritage and who did their part in making a home for them in a land of freedom and liber­ ty. We have spared no pains in trying to make this an absolutely correct sketch, but no doubt there ar,e some errors, as are usually found in VII genealogies.

  • When Breaking Benjamin Frontman Benjamin Burnley Heard That His
    When Breaking Benjamin frontman Benjamin Burnley heard that his band's fifth album, Dark Before Dawn sold more than 140,000 copies and hit the top position of this week's Billboard album charts, it's possible that he got dizzy and saw spots. The symptoms weren't a reaction to good news, but part of a chronic condition that kept him out of the music business since June 2010, when he halted a tour the band's last album, 2009's Dear Agony. "I'm still extremely sick after getting the same answers from some 300 doctors: 'We don't know what's wrong with you,'" says Burnley on his way to an acoustic performance and signing in Northeastern Pennsylvania. "The last time I was in a doctor's office, I slammed down my medical records, which are as thick as a phone book, and walked out. I'm tired of being a guinea pig. Now I push through the horrendous pain and do my thing." For Burnley to ignore his intense discomfort and write, record and produce crunching and atmospheric melodic hard rock songs like "Failure" — which has held the Number One slot on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart for eight consecutive weeks — is impressive enough. But Breaking Benjamin also have a tenaciousness that keeps them topping charts 13 years since their breakthrough, "Polyamorous." "It's crazy because not only have we held onto our old fans, but we're gaining new fans all the time," says Burnley. "We're up to 5.8 million Facebook likes and 242,000 followers on Twitter.
