Never heard of Poster Children? I am not surprised. Hell, I don’t even remember how or when I first heard them. As a teen my main partner in crime was my pal Larry. The two if us spent way too much time together and much of that time was centered around music. I figure he was the one to introduce to PC but I can’t say for sure. Either way I am just happy to share them with you now.
I got to see PC live once at the Capitol Ballroom in D.C. way back when (they opened for Better Than Ezra if that is any indication). It was a fun set but the on thing I took away from it was the PC were from Champaign IL. Why? Because they must have said it 35 times during their set.
One last note: PC were one of the first bands to jump on the tech-train using enhanced CDs to add extra content.
Junior Citizen – The title track from the first CD I bought from PC. At the time it sounded like a revolution anthem from the future.
Not Like You – A song about denials and realizations from the Just Like You EP.
Speed of Light – A great song of RTFM. If you don’t know what RTFM means you are probably hated by your IT guy.
