Butthole Surfers
Why is this news now?
Apart from the fact that Pitchfork has only just picked up on it.
This was discussed 12 days ago - http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/3262747
And it's not really the Buttholes is it?
youve answered your own question
and no its not properly the buttholes, but im still going if i can, will be good fun. its not like i can go back to the 80s and see proper buttholes.
This article isn't the same as what is said on the forum, though
"What does that mean? It means Jeff Pinkus on bass, Teresa ‘Nervosa’ Taylor and King Coffey both on drums and frontman Gibby Haynes, as well as guitarist Paul Leary if you get tickets for the New York City show."
It's pretty much the same.
It just downplays the whole Scool of Rock element and ignores the fact that Gibby said that he, Theresa and Paul won't even be playing the whole time.
no Paul Leary
has cut this from being something I was really up for to a 50/50
i weed a little
they're playing kentish town on my birthday.. oh lordy
Woo Hoo
Paul Leary is now playing all gigs. This leaves only Kathleen The nude dancer out of the classis line up. We want TA DA the Shit Lady!
