Yes, the band is named after an old, old cemetery in England. Did you know Neil Gaiman actually used the Abney Park cemetery as a model for the cemetery in his book "The Graveyard Book"? Apparently, Gaiman had difficulty finding information on the cemetery because he kept getting information pertaining to the band, Abney Park! =D

Funny you should mention that book. I had stopped reading it for whatever reason and still need to finish it.

Beautiful pumpkins everyone! Can't wait to see other carvings this year! I will do carve pumpkins, or someone else will do them for me!

here are a few of mine from last year





and I had a carving party as well:

Very, very cool!!! How many pumpkins did you carve?

total I carved a little over 30 last year. I set up a small display in front of my house last year. I started putting out pumpkins the first week of October and made 8 or so new pumpkins each week.


I'll probably do about the same this year.

Wow!!! That's a lot of pumpkins!!! I wish to have more pumpkins in my front yard, but don't have any money to spend on them! Nice pic!

You mean this year of 2011, or next year of 2012?
