08/21/24 Show 221 : Children Should Be Seen And Not Heard (Unless They Are Very Loud)
Manage episode 435406133 series 2812339
with this week’s internet sensation aka Anonymous Five Year Old’s “46 Instances Of A Child Screaming Into A Microphone” we are forced (at least i am) to recount the best (and worst) prior examples of children-in-bands, stunt or otherwise. Old Skull didn’t have a happy ending (and with the Missing Foundation lineage, they didn’t necessarily have a happy start, either). From afar it seems like things worked out ok for Hanson, but if “Slapshot” came out in 1977, i don’t understand how they were kid in the ’90’s. Redd Kross is probably the gold standard, Prussian Blue somewhat less so. Harley Flanagan - PEAKED EARLY. the 1-800-Kars-4-Kids Band - also peaked early (though perhaps not as early as Harley. So they’re not all gonna be as great at Tom Ardolino’s ‘Unknown Brain’ (which in retrospect, I wish I’d played instead of “46 Instances Of A Child Screaming Into A Microphone”)
