HP Community Pick is a semi-regular blog series where community members have the chance to highlight a show they’re stoked about. This pick is brought to you by Nate (super fan, super volunteer, resident music appreciator and playlist curator) on the band Public Opinion who performed on Thursday, June 22nd, 2023 with locals Wisecrack and Had To. Read all about it below!

I first saw Public Opinion live when they first came to Holland on a joint tour with Militarie Gun.  Needless to say, I absolutely loved it!  The controlled chaos that the frontman carried alongside the rest of the band was nothing short of awesome with how it dispersed throughout the rest of the room.  Their musical sensibilities combine a lot of primal first-wave punk with a sense of catchiness and overall, make for an engaging listen and even greater spectacle to witness live!  I’m super stoked they came back and can’t wait to see what they bring this time!
