I Like Pumpkinhead
My mate and I are sitting down on Saturday morning watching the chart show. It comes to our attention that they can play videos that have drive by shootings and younger people promoting sex and gang violence, but there’s no way they will play Pumpkinhead, who just promote the real things in life, like eating Weetbix, watching Shortland Street and being on the dole. It’s not like if someone heard them say ‘I like Thursdays, they’re my dole day,’ they are going to quit their job and go on the dole. Big deal — it’s not like marijuana is mentioned the whole way through the whole song. Wake up! Pumpkinhead are going to go a long way, and it’s about time people start to realise it like we do! We should be supporting them, not turning them away. Pumpkinhead go off! Kelly Nicholls and Loma Berge, Whitianga.
