With my most recent "case candy" poster, I had it laminated. Then I stuck it in my high school classroom. I've seen about 3 or 4 kids come up and stare at it before or after class
any other good uses for the Rick poster?

I didn't realize the Blackstars came with a poster, it would be interesting to see what it looked liked, as well as to have one.

Jaymi, are you talking about the one with the Smithereens all standing there with their RIC's crossed? With Mike M. holding a SHADOW???

"you're still in high school?"
Some days it feels like middle school
. . . my students in the afternoon class have NO ENTHUSIASM for ANYTHING. I could have them discover the meaning of life, the universe, and everything. But if they had to learn it for class, they would contrive a way to fall asleep duing the presentation.

I don't know whether the picture shown at the link below is the Blackstar/Smithereens poster alluded to above:

I have a Ric poster from 1997 on the wall behind my bed. I got it at a music store from a friend of mine.
John you're lucky you didn't have me in high school, I was a teacher's worst nightmare. All I did was sleep which was better than what I did in Jr. High. There I organized mass book droppings, paper airplane squadrons, organized coughings, etc. I was not a popular guy with my Jr. high school teachers.

I have two RIC catalogue (posters) in my "music room" and they add great atmosphere.

He was great Owen, pull it out and send it to me, haha! Was a sad day when he died.
Here are some of the songs he sang lead on:
Girl Don't Tell Me (Summer Days & Summer Nights) 1965
God Only Knows (Pet Sounds) 1966
Good Vibrations (Smiley Smile) 1967
Wild Honey (Wild Honey) 1967
I Was Made To Love Her (Wild Honey) 1967
Darlin' (Wild Honey) 1967
I Can Hear Music (20/20) 1969
Long Promised Road (Surf's Up) 1972
Feel Flows (Surf's Up)1972
The Trader (Holland) 1973)
I always thought he had the best voice in the Beachboys.
Wierd, as I was looking for and typing this Good Vibrations came on the radio.
