April 6, 2009

It always warms our hearts to read about reunion shows and new albums from previously disbanded bands. Thanks to Brett W. who tipped us off to an upcoming reunion show from The Huntingtons and Ghoti Hook in Philadelphia! The Hungtingtons made the official announcement last week. Check it out below...

"YES...IT IS HAPPENING...REUNION & NEW ALBUM...
Saturday, June 13, 2009 at Circle Of Hope in Philadelphia (venue address & start time posted soon)...

PIERCE FAMILY BENEFIT CONCERT

A bit of info: Jeannie Pierce was diagnosed with stage 3 Brain Cancer on May 2nd, 2006. She has had three brain surgeries thus far and has limited use of the left side of her body. Long time Huntingtons fans will recognize the name Jeannie from the song Jeannie Hates The Ramones. Jeannie is the wife of original Huntingtons drummer, Mike Pierce (aka Mikee Huntington). To show our love and support for Mikee and to raise money to help his family during this most difficult of times, we have decided to get the old lineup back together for a big concert. We have asked several bands who we shared the mid 90's scene around here with to reunite and take part in this concert as well. Basically, get ALL the old gang back together. Healing is best done in the company of family and, in many ways, we're all family.

REUNITING FOR THE SHOW:
Huntingtons - classic lineup of Mikey, Cliffy & Mikee joined by longtime newbie Josh Blackway (aka Jonny)
Ghoti Hook
Tantrum Of The Muse
Speedy Delivery
274
Fred And The Savages
+ 2 more unconfirmed reunions (updated upon confirmation)

ALSO PLAYING:
Main Line Riders
Adam & Dave's Bloodline

Tickets will be just $10.00, donations will also be accepted during the show. 100% of monies brought in from the door, donations and Huntingtons/Main Line Riders merchandise sales during the concert will go directly to the Pierce family.

Mikee's email address is mikeehuntington@msn.com...paypal donations can also be sent to that email address. Drop him and Jeannie a line, send them some cash, lift them up in prayer...we all appreciate it very much.

FURTHERMORE:
To coincide with the concert, the band is doing a new album of sorts. All 8 songs from the long out of print Split cd we did with Darlington (mastered properly for the first time ever!), two songs from the Get Lost/Plastic Surgery sessions that didn't make either album, Babysitter from the You're Not Right 7 inch and two brand new songs (recorded on March 28, 2009) are the composition of this new album. The album is entitled Punk Sounds and will be available digitally on Amazon.com. Our friends at Knowhere Records are helping us with a limited edition pressing of a thousand compact discs. The discs will be available for purchase at the concert and, just as it is with the concert, proceeds from the sale of the album will be going directly to the Pierce family.

We hope you will join us in lifting up our brother and friend, as well as his beautiful wife and children.

HUNTINGTONS
NOTE: Advanced tickets will be available for purchase in April or May"

Ghoti Hook also announced the reunion and cleared up any questions as to the possibility of any new music coming from the Ghoti Hook camp...

Reunion
http://blogs.myspace.com/huntingtons
The Huntingtons MySpace page sums up the details of the benefit show we are hoping to play at in June. The show is for a good cause and it will be a lot of fun to play again. The three of us did have to practice once before we committed just to make sure we didn't totally suck. There are no plans for new records, or tours, or new issues of ghoti goods, but you just never know...
