Butthole Surfers - Newport, Wales 5th August 1987 - Gibby lights the Cymbal

The Butthole Surfers playing at Newport Centre, Riverside Suite. 5th August 1987.
This occurs at the end of a frenzied performance of "The Shah...."

Actual next-day quote from one who attended "I went to see the Butthole Surfers last night on mushrooms - and I was so out of it I thought there was a naked trampolining woman and the ceiling was on fire."

[@masiv44]

I remember the naked, except for a thong, woman dancing. The next day I said to Simon of CSW, the promoters, that I didn't remember a lot due to being pissed, but what I did remember was brilliant. I've always said that it must have been freaky as fuck on acid.

They sure don't make em like they used to, huh?

[@phillipford2216]

I notice you posted something for the first time in 4 years a few days ago, so thought I'd ask if you could please upload more of this show. There are full concerts on YT of these guys in '87 with Kathleen topless the whole time, YT doesn't seem to care.

[@toffeethecat]

she is more than topless in some of the footage. but yeah, doubt anyone will care. OK will get around to it!

Great White should used a similar gimmick

You think this was lighter fluid or alcohol? Or something else? I wanna come back big after COVID.

[@rhysd8262]

Lighter fluid was what I heard. Looks like the little cans you get too

[@inalavalamp]

@@rhysd8262 epic, thanks. I’m gonna have to practice in the driveway before I take it out in the world. Scare the neighbors.

[@manchild4399]

Definitely lighter fluid , I was right in front of it

[@inalavalamp]

@@manchild4399 Thanks. Covid can't end soon enough.
