You've all waited so patiently. What wonderful friends. Yes it's true, The Punkinhead Family reunion will be this Halloween 2008 at the Green Door in Fayetteville. Just to wet your appetite, here's a little video. Albeit a very rough recording, I believe you'll all agree...Punkinhead...is...FUNKY. More info and more shows forthcoming. Peace and Love...see you on Halloween. --Punkinhead
