BUTTHOLE SURFERS July 4th DC Mall

On stage, relatively safe, 3 feet behind Paul Leary s amp was the perfect place to be this night. massive crowd as far as you can and chaos was expected and was delivered although there were serious tech problems from the Gibby s mic. Ultimately the plug was pulled and the show was stopped by the only 35 minutes in. Then cops on horseback threw everybody out. PS: I had battery and camera problems all night but did manage to get these full songs. This 4th of July 1989 Free concert was a smokein sponsored by NORML and was basically just a further continuation of the Rock Against Reagan concerts that were getting traditional. We hung with the Buttholes in their tiny trailer until showtime, then all Hell broke out.
