july 4th weekend!

Man what a weekend we had here in iowa..
the now annual 80/35 festival and PCC got to play twice, once with BOB from Pavement joining us on stage.. Im a pretty lucky dude in the fact I have gotten to play songs by two of my all time favorite bands with members of them..
Lets just say this one was pretty wild!

Bob Nastanovich of Pavement w/ The Poison Control Center "TWO STATES" from TAPES FOR LIFE on Vimeo.


Ash took some video of this one..

Then ofcourse we got to rock at 80/35.. and It was a blast.. I have been blogging about the even for www.80.35.com so I dont have much more to say other then I had an incredible time with my friends and saw some incredible bands!
check out Rockiowa.com, Des Moines Metromix, Desnoise.com, Scented Vinyl for all sorts of pictures and videos of shit..

I will give you a few quick high lights from the fest
