Yo, #listeningClub & @AccordionBruce --
David MiNnick: My oldest daughter would always come into the studio while I was working, and she always wanted to grab the microphone and say things...The things a three-year-old comes up with are actually better than a lot of the things adults come up with for songs. I learned that if you stop excluding the kids from the music, it takes a lot less energy, and plus you can get some really great stuff.

It’s the children’s album I got while my kids were little that I’ve listened to most as they grew to be adults
I’d really enjoy an interview with his grown up daughter and him if she was interested
@vinomadic
I won’t subject you all to it, but one of the best other kids-of-punks records is by Vancouver’s Duplex!
Earworms to last a lifetime in this and their second record
Way more entertaining than most kids music

@eastvanhalen must know local artiste Veda Hille
Available from her website for “Suggested $10” (or on a nice CD)

I think we may have seen Duplex!’s last show, when the kids had grown up enough and decided to go on strike and refused to perform
The audience and parents approved and I think that was the end of the band
I’m sure there’s more to that story backstage, but that’s my fan head-canon
