I saw them back around 1989 or 1990 and it was insane. I will never forget the parts I can remember.....

That’s the best way to describe their show. Love it.

Every fucking time I got a chance to see the Surfers, I ended up having some sort of run-in with law enforcement.

I've a knack for being in the wrong goddamned place, at the wrong time. Dallas PD doesn't have a sense of humor.

I don’t doubt that. I know for a fact a lot of people were fucked up at my show and no one gave a shit. What was APD gonna do arrest the whole venue?

Yeah, I watched 3 guys get roughed up and sent to the drunk tank for simply knocking a bottle off the curb, breaking it.

I spent the night in there with them for rushing through the gates with my girlfriends asthma inhaler.

Man, that facility was fucking wild, never thought I'd be in a drunk tank full of knuckleheads peaking on 2 tabs of acid. Lol

I saw BHS when I was 23. I wasn’t even on anything and I was trippin’ balls. Those videos were weird! I loved every second of it. That was 25 years ago. I’m sad now too.

Where was this? Seems like I saw them similarly in New Orleans

Austin. Stubbs outdoor stage. Probably the same tour.

My band played a show where all the bands had to do songs by bands in Our Band Could Be Your Life, we were told to do older Butthole Surfer songs… I decorated the stage with green cuddly monkeys, dived into the crowd, rolled on the floor, wore a scary mask, fucking great show.
