Butthole surfers Dust devil

texaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas

[@skandapildash]

That night was the first time I did acid and I loved the fireworks but honestly this stage was a gateway to hell in my mind at that time, the drummers really helped that idea

[@bernieleigh669]

You're never quite the same person after attending a Butthole Surfers gig. This is without doubt one of the finest rock tracks in the history of rock music. 😎

[@justinkline1294]

My first gig was Butthole Surfers, just after Independent Worm Saloon had come out. I was 14. Our moms gave me and a couple of my boys a ride there and back home. That night changed my life for real. Proof I'm still at home listening to and watching videos of these freaks now almost 30 years later.

[@sluggo2014]

Agreed

[@jamesschulziii9098]

This song kills fascists.

[@lestergillis8171]

Bevis & Butthead thought they were cool. So they can't be all bad.😉

[@bold810]

It's almost as cool as banging a playboy model in HoneyBucket when Molly Hatchet's playing the county fairgrounds and yuir packin' a chicken-heartsworth of just gree-zy peanut butter. That's what this guy called Earl told me. ehh.

[@ebronson78]

They definately don't make them like this anymore. Independent Worm Saloon is still one of the best albums from the 90s

[@Badgerjohn27]

FACT: If you're pulled over for speeding while this song is playing, the judge will throw the ticket out.

[@keithamandahall8548]

Fact:. They couldn't pull me over while this song was playing. 😆

[@jansongunn4214]

Keith & Amanda Hall this is true!👍

[@dinoirish5984]

FACT: If you're listening to this, you can get a speeding ticket sitting on your stoop.

[@jameslewis2596]

Texas..goddamn right!!

[@jameslewis2596]

Goofys concern..👍

[@strictlydubwise]

The last time I dropped acid -- June 20, 1992 -- it was at a Buttholes show in NYC when they had just started playing this cut live. It was beautiful.

[@Invading-Specious]

I sell acid.

[@PatrickSantos-sn8ox]

​@@Invading-SpeciousI dropped ACID at an Airshow in 2019 ,South Texas.....the A-10 ....strife ,air strike reenactment.....and powerful energy.....made for a kick ass afternoon.....indeed.

[@Restoredd]

@@Invading-Speciousyou’re doing the lords work

[@allenpeck8239]

​@@Invading-Speciousthat's funny because I buy acid

[@castielsgranny4308]

I’m old asf and remember when the Butthole Surfers played in Houston the first time! About 1980-82. They were the happiest, most excited bunch I’ve ever seen as far as just being so excited to do this gig at The Island. They have come so far!

[@daddyblackboots]

I could live my life to this riff on an endless loop. I kinds do in my head.

[@stuartthompson2362]

Awesome guitar riffs! Totally overlooked!

[@anthonyvincentfazio-writer]

John Paul Jones really did them justice by producing this record. It still sounds amazing!

[@zoranbrnica4025]

nema to veze sa produkcijom. Ovo nisu novci, nego glazba.

[@velvetpilot2008]

One of the greatest bands ever.

[@dennisstuckwish7934]

Kurt cobain's shirt read "listen to the butthole surfers" I love him that much more

[@Woutico]

Such an awesome album. After all those years it still sounds smashing!

[@Kilpleztim]

This is the shit that made me the man I am today. God I love real rock and FUCKING Roll!!!

[@sarahpartridge5103]

YAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[@Dave-ps3ff]

Something wrong with you if you don't like these guys !

[@brianpool3186]

Agree

[@MiniLemmy]

FUCKLING??!!

[@aaronmosey3637]

Right on

[@redape6870]

they filmed this video at the lake castaic show back in 1993. it was july 2nd. the lineup was beats & blunts, firehose, stone temple pilots & butthole surfers. i was lucky enough to score 2 hits of really strong acid in the beer garden before firehose came on. that show was one of the most intense shows i've ever seen. to this day i can't tell if half the shit i saw that night was real or a hallucination.

[@robwernet9609]

Legendary.

[@paul-olof]

I was at that tour show in Miami Bayfront Ampitheater and this girl I just met fed me about an 1/8 of mushrooms and it hit really hard. Gibby was shooting a shotgun blasting huge balloons over his head and above the crowd and I hadnt noticed but I was about to get utterly wrecked by a group of skinheads and some SHARPs just picked me up and set me off to the side and and they all started beating the fk out of each other so I walked to find my other friends and some kid ran up and said "Hey I saw those SHARPs just save your ass!" I asked what SHARPs are he said (Skin Heads Against Racial Prejudice) That was the first time I heard of that. And my first time seeing Firehose...amazing... I think I happened to see Firehose play a club in Fort Lauderdale which may have been that same weeknd or someother time. Those fkg 90s huh?!

[@thefleecer3673]

It was real. Everything else is a hallucination 🤟

[@UndercoverRat]

I gave you a thumbs up and down.

[@jasonclark2209]

​@paulolof4250 i was at that show. Bloodiest pit I'd ever seen. The drive back to Lauderdale was wild to say the least

[@fortminor85]

Butthead: Ladies and Gentlemen.....The Butthole Surfers.

[@phydeauxddog]

Damn Texans can rock.

[@malgalloway7323]

It don't get much better than this ! A fucking gem.

[@michaelciuman3966]

42 now and literally growing up near them and knowing them the memories seeing them . Someone needs to figure out how to preserve the perfect moments. But as the once great actor who played spock said life is like a garden perfect moments can be had but sadly not preserved.

[@ceeh6522]

I loved these guys in middle school during the 1980's and I love them still.

[@kelpaul1105]

Yup

[@pspiddy]

For all the kiddies, this is what is called "music". It was born circa forever ago and died around Nickleback. (Also see Elton John and Sam Cooke for further learning)

[@utubedestroysmytime]

John Paul Jones engineered and produced this !

[@sydbarrett5]

That man has seen some weird shit in his lifetime.

[@jameslewis2596]

Top shelf sir..Top shelf..🔥✊

[@patricklink8527]

Yes. I know.

[@patricklink8527]

Saw these guys at Red Rocks on this tour. Gibby with the shotgun was a sight to behold. Got the power of an uprightness goddamn hand.

[@springfieldmugshotshouser5113]

Awesome

[@honeycomblord9384]

Y'all remember that one episode of "King of the Hill" where Hank accidentally gets high, after thinking what he was smoking was just a cigarette that the stoner dude rolled himself? Yeah, this soundtracks that bit pretty well.

[@NotAnAstronaut2k]

Most underrated band ever, atleast for me. Butthole Surfers was Nirvana for adults.

[@chanbara8683]

thats cool but ur comment towards the ass end of it made u sound dumb af..u cant define bands like that and sound like u no wut ur talkin about...

[@TechiRef]

BEST Freaking solo I have ever heard in my LIFE. Most people know these guys because of Who was in My Room Last Night. I know 'em for this one.

[@liamsanchezgoestovegas]

Two singles from the same record. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ateveenstra5361]

I know them from Negro observers, epic track as well

[@TheSleepingonit]

@@ateveenstra5361 likewise

I remember when this came out in 1993,I bought the cd I was in 10th grade and drove to school with this song blasting and when I turned the car off the principal asked me what the fuck was that lol.

[@user-pq6mr6op3p]

Thing's that never happened....

[@liamsanchezgoestovegas]

The record is from 93’ but, I dig the joke

[@madsparky27]

Saw these guys back in 93 at an outdoor concert. They were awesome. Best live band I've ever seen.

[@elogon0850]

beavis and butthead brought me here

[@paulswithenbank9692]

Butthead: These guys got their name from me. Beavis: No way! This is the butthole surfers, Your name is butthead. Butthead: Oh yeah!

[@BonaldDrump]

same

[@shanesullins7476]

I saw them in Atlanta's Lollapalooza in '91, mindbending unadulterated debaucherous fun!! I will never forget it.

[@redape6870]

at 2:57 there's a shot of a shoe being thrown that hit the microphone stand and bonked Gibby in the face supposedly chipping his tooth. this took place at the Lake Castaic show in Castaic California on July 2nd 1993. I was at that show. the played with Stone Temple Pilots, fIREHOSE and Beats and Blunts. i was trippin balls on 2 hits of really good purple blotter acid and i saw some shit that night that i'm still not sure was real. when the shoe hit gibby in the face he was so pissed he stopped the show and tried to pick a fight with the guy who threw it. he eventually continued with the show but man he was mad. one other highlite of that show, during Stone Temple Pilots show Scott Weiland was also hit in the face with a Vans shoe. he stopped the show and said "I'M GONNA DEDICATE EVERY SONG I SING FROM NOW ON TO THE FUCKER WHO JUST HIT ME IN THE FACE WITH A SHOE!!". aside from these two incidents it was a great show. firehose rocked, beats and blunts played for like 15 minutes while most of us were still in line to get into the show. i was lucky enough to score some acid from a hippie i met in the beer garden. i had to drive home back to thousand oaks that night. i was still trippin balls when the show was over. i didn't come down from that acid until about ten the next morning. one of the best nights of my life.

[@Oi325]

I heard while on this tour Scott Weiland got into heroin from someone in the butthole surfers.

[@niknic4264]

Oi325 not surprised!

[@hellbillybilly4770]

Thanks I knew this was a CA show - at least a couple of shots looked like the 8 hour show they did at the Ibeam in SF - always had to be on your toes in the pit with the acid and the strobes

[@johndries9730]

[@Dolamite314]

I drove out to the canyon ground Grinding dust off from the sand I don't ever fuck with the Dust Devil He's got the power of an upright in his goddamn hand The sand becomes a potent elixir Wind as hot as flame The bodies fly right through the night All faceless and without name I grab onto a foreign handle Walking all through a door Discovered I was just buying a pint Of turkey at the liquor store I drove out to the canyon, baby And hit the motherfucking road I paid my fine and all the lights Look exactly like a picture show The desert skies before my eyes They turned into a sea A flaming mass of oil and gas Screams with ecstasy

[@jessicapatton2688]

They have become my new favorite 2024!!

I was introduced to this by an older student when I was 12 in high school, my life has never been the same again since

[@user-bf5mm6cc2h]

this song showcases. the ability if the guitar player they went from being a noise band to a legitimate band with this release! every song on the release is amazing I listen to it all the time!!!!

[@NotAnAstronaut2k]

They were wayyy more than just noise rock in the 80s lol

[@aaronmosey3637]

Nope

[@GALVESTON340]

....gotta love living down here in the "Nation of Texas" that's for sure....and catching Al up on the lake chilling catching some nice bass is a given!!

[@bigdaddypiggy]

The fuckin epitome of a punk band...their shows were great

[@uutuu5871]

Still better than the crap They make today. All these years later it's still genius, I just wish I could jam this song

And especially Hairway to Steven without major flashbacks. 91- 96 were days of youthful bliss AND insanity.

+Howard Winkleman Just practice downstroking on the Open A string & ripping a few boxy solo's. May the Riff be with you!

[@IggyMontpellierPro]

Another showcase of John Paul Jones' brilliance.

[@jdoncbus]

+Iggy M or Gibby and the band ;-) I agree though - the production on this album is great.

Ich weiß, dass der Sound mein Leben bestätigt hat. Und ich werde dieses Jahr 60! Und bin noch da

[@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973]

Anyone who has ever heard Thundertheif or some of the other tracks on John Paul Jones Zooma album could tell that his production is all over this song. That man understands how to make bottom end jump out at you on a rock song.

[@glbfromjustgian3882]

One of the best yettttt. Greetings from Milan

[@nobrains73]

Gibby makes me proud to be a Texan!

[@scottc8127]

He grew up in my old neighborhood in Lake Highlands, East Dallas.

[@ST-lb8wp]

I had the pleasure of seeing this show. Castaic Park near bakersfiel, STP opened. No doubt in my mind, best concert I have seen in my life, hands down.

[@billbill8127]

Throughout this can picture Texas oil man,George Bush riding a chopper with oil barrel gas tanks, bull horns, American flag high on a rear pole, Dick C. chasing him down, gas hose up his behind.
