Happy Halloween! Regulars to Brain Damage over the years will know that our good friend Joe Ringus is a hugely talented pumpkin artist, and each year crafts a Pink Floyd themed pumpkin for Halloween (a celebration which is embraced by many, principally tonight, but in a number of places it covers a number of days). Those regulars will no doubt be as keen as we have been to see if Joe would be continuing the tradition this year, and if so, what design would be picked. The great news is that Joe has been hard at work yet again, and has done another phenomenal job! We’re delighted to share his incredible carving with you, which is a representation of the key detail on the cover of the Floyd’s A Momentary Lapse Of Reason. This is very timely with the release on Friday of the Remixed & Updated edition (https://www.brain-damage.co.uk/latest/pink-floyds-a-momentary-lapse-of-reason-remix-2lp-vinyl-cd-dvd-blu-ray-and-360-reality-a.html) of the album! Joe said: “For the longest time I didn’t think this design would be possible on a pumpkin. But with limited design selections left to choose from, it was time to give it a try! It was also fitting that it coincided with the remix of A Momentary Lapse Of Reason! Happy Halloween!” Thanks Joe – we think you’ve done another excellent job! It’s a great tradition and we know many of our visitors love to see them. If there are any other pumpkin artists out there who have created Floyd designs, we’d love to see them. Also, if you have any suggestions for other images Joe could tackle in future years, please contact us at the normal email address of Matt@Brain-Damage.co.uk and we’ll pass on your ideas to him.
