Butthole Surfers

SNUB TV BBC2. Changed nothing, changed everything. Art in music.

My favourite. This is a great era.

Was pleased to receive Ben Graham’s new book about them in the post just the other day :slight_smile:

Just ordered that - how is it?

Great so far. I’m only a few chapters in. But despite feeling I’ve read pretty much everything about them ever published I’m still learning new stuff :slight_smile:

What a band. Would have loved to have seen them in their prime

Ditto. I’ve never seen them and even if they ever played again, the bird has flown. Real art. Love when Gibby hugs guy, kicks him, sets self on fire, gets drum pattern played out on his chest whilst doing a mellow crowd surf.

Sad to hear of Teresa Taylor’s passing over the weekend. She’d been in a hospice for a while so not unexpected. But, still, RIP to a proper legend! Just listening to a bit of Psychic Powerless…

She asked me, and presumably many others, to score drugs for Gibby at ATP.

I couldn’t help for the record.
