Punk Head Presents the inaugural “A Merry Punking Christmas” featuring 90’s pop-punk band Nerf Herder with special guests The Copyrights, Dan Vapid & The Cheats, and Capgun Heroes. All proceeds from the show will benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Greater Chicago Food Depository, and Toy Box Connection.
Pioneers of the late 90’s pop-punk and geek rock movements, Nerf Herder are perhaps best known for their powerful theme to the iconic Joss Whedon TV show, Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
The current band features founding members Parry Gripp and Steve Sherlock, with Linus Dotson and Ben Pringle. Nerf Herder’s 5th album Rockingham is an explosion of geekiness with songs like “At The Con,” a song written after a performance at Atlanta’s DragonCon, “Ghostbusters III,” a lamenting tune about how the sequel will never be released, and “I’m The Droid (You’re Looking For),” which is made entirely of lines from Star Wars and was recorded at Skywalker Ranch. Other standout tracks include “We Opened for Weezer”, a song reminiscing Nerf Herder’s ’97 tour with Weezer, and “The Girl Who Listened to Rush”.
