Battle of the Bands – Radiohead

It was somewhere in 1982 when Thom Yorke, at the age of 14, asked Colin Greenwood to join him for a new band with Ed O'Brien. Thom and Colin were in a school punkband called TNT. Another friend from the Abingdom public school became the drummer of the band, Phil Selway. Jonny Greenwood - Colin's brother - wanted in too. After several name and member changes the band starting catching on big. They choose the name “Radiohead” for the title of a cod-reggea tune on Talking Heads' True Stories album, Radio Head. Radiohead’s first big hit, and probably best known song for non-fans of the band is 1992’s “Creep”. While H&H loves all of their material, a few favorites are “Lucky” and “Karma Police”. Give Radiohead a listen, especially their album “OK Computer”. You’ll be hooked.

Karma Police Lyrics

Karma police, arrest this man, he talks in maths
He buzzes like a fridge, he’s like a detuned radio
Karma police, arrest this girl, her hitler hairdo,
is making me feel ill
And we have crashed her party
This is what you get, this is what you get
This is what you get, when you mess with us

Karma police, I’ve given all I can, it’s not enough
I’ve given all I can, but we’re still on the payroll
This is what you get, this is what you get
This is what you get, when you mess with us
And for a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself
And for a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself

For a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself

To find the Radiohead letterbox follow the directions below:

Park at the Schofield Covered Bridge parking lot. Entrance is on Swamp Road past the main Tyler Park entrance and Bucks County Community College.

Take the path down the hill and look for the horse trail off to the right where you see a large tree growing in the middle of the path. Proceed up a trail to the left of that tree.
At the top of the trail ignore the path on the left. Yes, there is something down there but did you bring the clues? It’s not a Battle of the Bands box. Instead head straight ahead in a in a northerly direction past the large Beech tree on the right that was carved on 11/21/85. Soon, on your left you’ll see where Dan was in ’83. Stop right there a locate the tree about 20 feet away at approximately 320 degrees. Can you hear Tom Yorke’s piano?

Box is wrapped in camo. Please carefully re-wrap and re-hide.
