The Butthole Surfers remain one of the most enigmatic bands in the
history of rock music - and one of my favourites. Most of their records have no information of any
kind, and often with the suggestion that you play them at 69 rpm....
They lived like nomads through much of the 1980s, and built their
reputation upon tours that never ended, and shows that resembled
hedonistic acid tests. They left a heap of former band members in their
wake, and have often alienated as many fans as they've attracted.
Another favourite band of mine - to this day. The Butthole Surfers's concert were absoutely fabulous and the only ones I'd ever have felt some sense of danger. Always keep away from the stage!
Cherub Cherub the angel Roll back the hands of time

You walk alone now You're never mind The walks you've taken have left behind All people sideways They look at you may god forsake me cause I do to
I see bodies Maybe, maybe someone is alive Naked we smile
Hoo-hahahahahahahah, a-hahahahahohoho
Naked
Ha-ha

You're right beside me you gaze a view your body's vacant they crawl right through
those bodies falling it's in the air we're mixed so close now but I don't care
ha ha ha
walk upon me your body lead you try to escape you it's in your head
I'd better go back I'm not over there
You walk beside me you gaze at me you're homeless now or that times three
amazon you gaze along I'll make you talk you there is no bong
your mind has cut you you're bleeding now your plans escaped just like a bow
they walk right past you they stop and stare your body's lying all over there
I'm an American living in Regensburg, Bavaria. Born in Munich I spent my first 10 years in Kirkwood, Mo. 1971 we moved to where I am now. Finished German school in 1981, afterwards studied philosophy and German literature and languages. 1982 I joined the management of the local film club's cinema Filmgalerie, and from 1991-2001 I co-owned an own arthouse cinema STALI (Stadtamhofer Lichtspiele). In between I also was partner of the cinema and music bookstore Angry Red Planet for a few years. In the 80s I co-founded the local industrial band and performance art group Lyssa humana that officially still exists, but currently doesn't perform (last time was for our retrospective exhibition in 2010) at the Kunstverein Graz. I was also member of the shortlived noise rock band Hammersmith. Since 2001 I work for the customer service of a large American online company.
