HOW TO GET TO THE FIRST RANDOM CHILDREN SHOW IN PHILLY.

I’m not much of a pack rat. Nor am I a hoarder. However, I do have a tendency to hang onto objects that seem important.

A few posts back, I mentioned the first time The Random Children played in Philadelphia proper. Sure, we grew up only 8 or 10 miles outside of the city, but playing that first show was a big deal. After posting about it, I remembered a little more.

I went to high school with a kid named Haim Koenig. He was, for lack of a better explanation, my punk rock father. Meaning, he turned me onto to such a vast universe of music it was like seeing the Grand Canyon for the first time. Haim was a couple years older than me, and he had transferred into our school system when I was a freshman and he was a junior. I had only started listening to punk music the year before and had only been introduced to the big guns, Sex Pistols, Clash, Ramones, Misfits, Dead Kennedys, etc. But Haim turned me and my other close friends onto so much more. Minor Threat, Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Dag Nasty, Swiz…the list is endless.

Haim was so cool that he had already passed through all things punk and now had made the jump to being a mod. But he still enjoyed passing quality music onto kids who seemed hip for it. He would make endless mix tapes for me and my friends. The hours he must have spent…sheesh.

Anyway, when we first met Haim, he had played in a band called Grooving Power with a kid named Ralph. We were no longer, “The Tazmanians” and were looking for a singer. Haim brought Ralph to meet us one day when we were practicing and I guess that’s how we met Ralph.

Shortly after Ralph joined, Haim’s new band Mad Planets was playing at the Olde City Arcade. Haim asked our new band Random Children to play that show and I still remember the day at school when he scribbled down the information of where the show was.

Somehow I’ve held onto that small piece of paper. While it’s not much, to be able to post it here is something…I dunno…it’s something special to me.
