Node --debug-brk app.js not functioning

I'm trying to debug my app but something is stopping the app from actually firing up when I use --debug-brk flag.

Here's my output normally:

/usr/local/bin/node app.js
Express server listening on port 3000
Connected to database HackRegDb

Here's what happens when I run --debug-brk (with a breakpoint at a point in the code that won't be hit on initial startup)

/usr/local/bin/node --debug-brk=59763 app.js
debugger listening on port 59763

See, no "server listening" portion. The code is the same obviously, and there's no breakpoint before that is spit out.

For reference, here's my app.js file:

var express = require('express')
  , routes = require('./routes')
  , members = require('./routes/members')
  , teams = require('./routes/teams')
  , http = require('http')
  , path = require('path');

var app = express();

// all environments
app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3000);
app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
app.set('view engine', 'jade');
app.use(express.favicon());
app.use(express.logger('dev'));
app.use(express.bodyParser());
app.use(express.methodOverride());
app.use(express.session());
app.use(app.router);
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));

// development only
if ('development' == app.get('env')) {
  app.use(express.errorHandler());
}

app.get('/', routes.index);
app.get('/members', members.list);
app.get('/teams', teams.list);
app.post('/members', members.add);
app.post('/teams', teams.add);
app.put('/members/:id', members.update);
app.put('/teams/:id', teams.update);

http.createServer(app).listen(app.get('port'), function(){
  console.log('Express server listening on port ' + app.get('port'));
});

Am I missing something?
