Labor Day weekend. It’s a holiday created to honor those that work hard at their jobs each and every day. The small dose of irony is that many are being forced to go to work on Labor Day. Apparently it’s not widely recognized as a holiday by a number of companies. If your boss doesn’t give you the day off, I hope you’re earning some extra money as a result of the holiday. I’m undecided yet whether or not to have a Monday edition of Pick Your Poison. Whether or not it happens will likely be dependent on either my mood or schedule for the day. Today’s extra long weekend-starting edition is a delight, as per usual. Tracks I can give the thumbs up to come from Captain Planet, Casey Shea, Faces on Film, The Features, High Pop, James Elkington & Nathan Salzburg, and Prophets & Kings. In the Soundcloud section you’ve got yet another Tokyo Police Club cover song. This time they take on M83’s great “Kim & Jessie”.
