thrown up at the same time]. That much.
What I found interesting was all the shouty ass fucks screaming stupid ass bullshit all over the club. Dicks. Stop.
Excellent example of the Post-PuNk time period. As the steam was running out of the PuNk movement (ten years at those energy levels would kill most people!), more musical styles where being experimented with in the Underground Scene. Much of which was not commercial viable or commercial sought after. Not unlike the coming GRUNGE Scene which started out Underground, but became VERY much part of popular culture in the early Nineties.
At least Richmond had GWAR back then, and according to Oderus, much better crack.
proof...?
what were your ideas for the "pepper" and "Jingle of a Dog's collar"? I would really like to know, cuz i'm a huge fan!
Very cool to see you were involved in Entering Texas, one of several great pieces in that Impact Video Magazine (it included a fantastic piece on Robt Williams). I'm so glad I found this. I probably saw the Surfers 7-8x and each one was a trip. Almost literally.
Thanks for posting this good quality, classic Surfers video.
I read on the forums they have a new book that's going to be called "Let's Go To Hell."
All the best, Petri and also behalf of my Butt Surfing friends ( Sorry my English isn't perfect )
Probably won't happen, I live somewhere else. But I've chatted with Paul and King on the Butthole Surfers forums.
Your Wikipedia page says that you directed videos for the Surfers. Which ones, by the way?
That's excellent! You partnered up with Alex Winter? Very triumphant. I saw the Cherub video, the one with someone eating cereal at the beginning then running naked through GCS (thought I recognized it), in the comments someone was flipping out about the guys "stealing" the video, saying that "Alex" or whoever had made it, haha.
The versions of the Bar-B-Q movie out there are all most heinous. Do you know of any excellent versions with triumphant quality, and where I can download them?
Thanks, I'd even buy it off you if you still have one. I Wikipedia'd you up, you're a cool, guy.
Holy moly, got any info about them? My channel and website would love it.
Welcome, maybe drop by near my channel if you like it.
and holy shit you talked with paul leary? and hope you dont mind me uploading this on youtube, im giving credit to you. on my channel, a pretty dedicated channel if i say so myself. or, rather, it will be.
Actually, the lyrics are "Lou Reed", but that sounds AWESOME!
I mean it had been around for over 10 years...so these guys were just a 'little brother band' hoping to ride the train of punk that had long left the station.
I guess this is more like that depressing grungy stuff than punk, thank God that fad didn't last long.

"I don't like your opinion"

"FUCK YOU TOO"
"YOU SUCK FOR HAVING A DIFFERENT OPINION! I'M GOING TO OBSESSIVELY ANALYSE EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE FOR MY OWN EXPENSE AND ACCEPT NOTHING YOU SAY, WHILE ALSO MAKING MYSELF SEEM LIKE THE BETTER PERSON! (PROBABLY BY LYING)"

"GRRR!"
"GRRR!"
I'm not reading all that. Go back to your caterwauling, chump. Have a nice day :)
My original post that start all this was a simple question. I just wanted to know how the BS changed that guy's life. I just thought it was a simple and polite question. It was met with profanity, insults and in your case personal insults on my physical appearance, which really shows how pathetic you are. You can't come up with anything better?
So neither you nor the other dude can really answer me. How did they "change your life"? Usually a life changing experience would be something like experiencing real combat in a war zone, accepting Christ, rejecting Christ and becoming an atheist, serving in the peace corps, getting married, having a near death experience. But you bozos, throw around a serious phrase like "life changing" like it's nothing. It's like saying, that burrito I had today changed my life.
So tell me, on your death bed as you look back at your life, noting the pivotal points in your life that define you as a person, noting the things that you did that you may want to be remembered for...can you honestly say "it was seeing the Butthole Surfers live"?
It was a simple question and I was seeking enlightenment. And you call me narrow minded? You insult my appearance?
My videos are not for performance, they are to teach some people I know how to play guitar. They don't promote me. I'm not trying to impress anyone with my playing or singing. I'm just trying to help people out.
You on the other hand are an arrogant self promoting prick.
BTW you should brag about your rescue dogs. That, in my opinion, is your only saving grace.
I've got two rescue dogs. I don't advertise that fact because I'm not looking for adulation from the internet. I rescued the dogs and they are part of my family. It doesn't matter to me if people know.
So my G+ page says "I lived in Austin" as far as I know that is a default setting. I never looked into it.
And self-promotion? Absolutely. I'm self employed. If I didn't self-promote I couldn't feed rescue dogs or donate to other charities.
And "urbanite"? As if I'm supposed to feel bad for living in a city? C'mon that's just stupid.
You are a very narrow minded person. And I suspect that you're a sad and lonely person because you are crying out on YouTube in a negative way to garner attention. You crave human interaction and the only way you can get it is by trolling.
OK You got me. You didn't actually say "life changing experience". You actually said "Definitely changed my life". There's a real big difference there.
You are an ultimate jackass. HerdingDogRescue has naught to do with me. It's about the dogs you dolt. It's about promoting saving rescue dogs. Doing that changed my life. It got me out of self and into helping amazing dogs.
Do I have my picture up like you do? No. I have a picture of a dog you jackass. Does my Google+ page say "Lived in Austin" like you do, as I just know that you are sooo proud of that.? No..It's not about me. On the other hand you are ALL about you. You are all about self promotion.
So you lived in Austin and rub shoulders with the surfers,,,so what. I've met them too. I've lived in cool places and have met wonderful people too. I'm not on here bragging about it. The most amazing people that I've met are average everyday people who selflessly help others and rescue animals from horrific conditions.
You on the other hand are an arrogant, self serving, judgmental, urbanite who is totally into self promotion.
I hope enjoy surfing buttholes with all your cool friends. Hopefully you will someday have a true life changing experience that will allow you to see that it's not about self promotion.
Hearing their music changed my life. It was a one of the catalysts that moved me out of Ohio and into Austin TX. Becoming friends with the band changed my life because they introduced me to so many different and amazing people.
Am I cool? Fuck yes I'm cool.
And look at your Google "name" HerdingDogRescue. Is that not an attempt to shout to the world how "cool" you are? Because you claim to rescue dogs? If you actually rescued dogs you would probably be too consumed with that and you wouldn't be trolling YouTube talking about bands you hate. Go rescue a herding dog and shut the hell up.
Obviously you weren't in the right circle. I've never paid to see these dudes once. One of the reasons I moved to Texas was because of what the Surfers were doing. Definitely changed my life. I still see these dudes around. They are still playing music and pushing the envelope although in different ways. The bass player, Pinkus, plays banjo in a band called Pure Luck and it's bad-ass. They are relevant. Always have been. No band has ever replicated what the Surfers did. And the band members don't even try to replicate it with new projects. They do whatever they want.
When you make any sort of impact on the music world please let us know.
PS... Rolling Stone is garbage and this crap band BHS is the bottom of the shit barrel.

rock on Anton
In my last reply to you, as all my comments have been to you, just that, replies, I pointed out just some of your misunderstandings of simple English. You clearly glossed over the comment in your haste to unsuccessfully attempt a witty put down rather than carefully reading. If anyone doesn't know when to shut the fuck up it's you, bleating on about the same bullshit. You are a silly cunt that buys records and goes to see bands numerous times when you don't even like them. How on earth would a tit like you ever understand the power of rock n roll.
On a personal level I hope this teaches you that you aren't anywhere near as smart as you think you are. You've been slapped into place each time you comment. Enough! Learn from it and move on unless you are happy to remain the silly cunt that you are.
On rare occasions I come across morons like you in daily life and I can assure you I'd speak to them as I have to you. Whether or not you believe that, personally I don't give a shit, I also don't give a shit that you can't understand how music can be life changing.
Honestly, you did miss the point of my comment, which wasn't even directed to you anyway. You inserted your judgement, insults, profanity and intollerance into that conversation. You just jumped in with your insutls and missed the whole point, which was how did the Buthole Surfers change that peron's life.
I'm not playing innocent. I asked a question that's it. (I did knock the Butthole Surfers, but so did you actually.) You attacked me unprovoked and unsolicited. Then you paint me like I am the ultimate evil while the whole time you are the one spewing profanity, insults, anger and intollerance.
If you want to elevate your ego by saying that you have a "standard of articulation and eloquence above the norm" then by all means live that dream. Build yourself up and put me down if that toots your horn. It all means naught to me. I am just calling a spade a spade. The more you write, the more it proves my point. Thanks for making this so easy.
The truth of the matter is that the profanity rants that you have "articulated" here is common fare on YouTube. You ARE the norm, you are not above it.
What you do is the same as road rage, You sit in front of your computer disconnected from humanity and rage on someone in a way that you would NEVER do in real lfe because that would violate the moral code of decency. But you feel it's OK to do it here because you are not looking in my face when you spew your hate and intollerance.
Go out and enjoy the day.
I also think it's evident that both of us have a standard of articulation and eloquence above the norm so let's drop the mutual accusations of illiteracy and being grammatically challenged. I also don't believe that you're the least bit offended at any language I've used, personally I don't have a problem with words, they are just that, words.
My initial assessment of you was bang on target, you're a wind up merchant looking for an argument, most likely out of boredom, what you didn't bargain on was the fact that you aren't the only one able to string a sentence together.
Thanks for caring, have a great day, weekend, life yourself.
People can like whatever they want. I like all sorts of music. I've got no issues there at all. I like some pretty weird stuff and I recall being ridiculed when I went and saw these guys and when I bought their records. Yes records.
My concern is the "this changed my life" statement. I've seen lots of awesome concerts over the years, but none of them changed my life. I fail to see how a band or concert could "change your life", especially a band like the Butthole Surfers. So I was asking for clarification on that point.
That was the purpose of my orignal comment that triggered your grammtically incorrect spewing of profanity and hate. I ask a simple question without insulting anyone and you chime in and spew insults and anger. Then you have the gall to make all these accusations and judgements about me that have nothing to do with the comment.
You are the sad, twisted and intollerant person here. Everything you've said has proved that point and I dare say anything you will say will do nothing bu solidify that point for all who read the comments.
Have a great day!
I've never known such a dipshit get their knickers in a knot because people appreciate music that they don't like. That's what this is about, your bullshit, you're the type of prick that would argue with a brick wall. The sad thing is, if you did see the band back in the day, you must be in your 40s now and this is how you choose to spend your time by acting the silly cunt on you tube.
"Who mentioned popularity?"
Um you did actually.
And I quote:
>>As a number of people endorsed the comment with the + button it appears that the comment is POPULAR and simple to understand. <<
(emphasis mine)
You call me illiterate but it certainly appears that you are challenged in that area.
>>Who mentioned popularity dipshit, oh, that would be you and I'd hardly call the Butthole Surfers popular, <<
Sentences that ask a question generally end with a "?". I see you have problems with that concept as your profane rant is full of grammatical errors
Also that was a run and really should have be separated into two sentences.
You obviously missed the point of my initial comment and you didn't read my response to your first profane rant.
Thank you for proving my point and broadcasting your ignorance to the world.
Have a nice day.
So you take issue with my profanity, I take issue with your illiteracy, if you want to express that you did something as well, it is 'too', double 'o' not 'to' you feeble minded idiot.
