PUNCHLINE

Punchline??™s new commercial is up at fueledbyramen.com/punchline/. If you??™re busy and don??™t have time to watch it, just let me tell you??¦their CD ???Action??? is really good. I think you should listen to it. You can get it for only $8 in our webstore if you use the coupon code ???punch2004??? when you??™re checking out. So order a copy of it, listen to it, memorize the lyrics and then go sing along when you go see the band on their upcoming tour with Mest, Hawthorne Heights and Bayside.

If you have any questions about their CD, Labor Day or your emotions, Punchline will be more than happy to answer them. Click here to ask the Punchline dudes for advice.
