Historic Hudson Valley - Behold...Pumpkinhenge!

Behold...Pumpkinhenge!

When I first heard the idea of a Stonehenge-inspired Blaze display, I couldn't help but think of the ill-fated results of Nigel Tufnel's napkin rendering and David St. Hubbins' lambasting response to his band's manager post-concert:

I, for one, do not think the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem may have been that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being crushed by a dwarf.

So, when I first saw it glowing there Saturday night I could hardly believe my eyes. The towering Pumpkinhenge has to be among the Blaze gurus' greatest creation. Too bad a tiny online pic doesn't really do it justice. You just have to see this monumental cathedral of carvings in person.

Way to go gurus! You do the druids proud...

BB, you are so right on point with the 'henge. But don't forget about Derek Smalls. I was expecting to hear "Big Bottom" playing in the background around the Stonehenge.

I saw the P' henge live. It's an amazing display.

You guys rocked it out again. Send my best to Mike the creative guru god.

Over & out.
