Movie Reviews of Blind Eye Sees All, Live 1985
Movie Review: Acid + Failed Accountant = Gibby Haynes
Summary: 5 Stars
Unfortunately I wasn't around when the Butthole Surfers has shows with 2 drummers, strobe lights, film projectors, fires, nude dancers and more. With the Butts being one of my favorite Bands, I felt that it was essential for me to pick up a copy of this. Now I'll admit, it was a little premature for them to releases a Video in 1985. They only had 3 studio albums out by then. That wasn't them in their peak. There weren't any film projectors, dancers, or fires. If they could release a DVD of shows from 1988 than that one would blow this sucker out of the water. But since they haven't (Yet) we all have to settle for this. Not that it's bad or anything, but for the budget they had at the time, this thing is almost perfect. The drums sound is unlike anything they had on the records. It stands out a lot more. The version of Dum Dum they play here is phenomenal. Gibby also adds another part of sorts between verse 2 and 3. And at one part the Bassist brings out a Tuba to play on "Something" and Gibby switches to Bass. Between each song a reporter tries to interview the Butthole Surfers who are in a bed eating pizza and drinking beer. Let's just say he fails miserably and is quite frustrated t some points. It shows just how crazy Gibby is.
The flaws in the show are that it was recorded during 2 different shows. While this doesn't affect it much, it's kind of annoying for Gibbys cloths and hair style to suddenly change when the camera angle changes. At one point his hair is up and all over the place and he has no shirt on and then he has his hair down and has a black shirt on. The first time I watched this I asked myself "what the F***?" Another thing is that if you pay attention then you can tell that they switched the songs out of order. It's clear that Mark Says Alright comes before Something cause at the end of "Mark", The bassist brings out his tuba. The same thing happens with the shah sleeps in lee Harvey's Grave and 100 million people dead. At the end off "100" Gibby picks up the guitar he had in "Shah", but in the next song it disappears. Another complaint is that The Shah Sleeps in Lee Harvey's Grave isn't that great here, for some reason, that song among the rest looks like the most "unprofessional" of the bunch, maybe because it's basically improve. You will know what I mean when you buy this. It just doesn't look good for the first song they play.
The Song list is:
1. The Shah Sleeps in Lee Harvey's Grave
2. 100 Million People Dead
3. Bar-be-que pope
4. Cowboy Bob
5. Hey
6. Tornadoes
7. Dum Dum
8. Mexican Caravan-Gibby sings through a roll of toilet paper!!!!!
9. Cherub
10. Lady Sniff
11. Something
12. Mark Says Alright
13. PSY
Bonus material
Negro Observer 1991- rather pointless
Butthole Karaoke- Shows some of the songs with lyrics.
5.1 surround sound
Contains Audio and Photo Gallery Shows flyers and posters from past shows and plays the original American Woman in the Background. You can get the rare song (and others) from their website onto your computer.
I myself am a drummer/percussionist and for me, being able to watch a band with 2 stand up drummers (no bass drums) is simply captivating. This DVD is worth every penny.
Also There Are Bonus songs on the DVD. Yeah, you heard me. I found the Easter Eggs. in order to get the Easter Eggs/hidden tunes follow these easy steps.
STEP 1: you must first go and buy the DVD.
Step 2: watch the DVD.
While watching the DVD you will notice there are some parts of another Butthole Surfers Show in which Gibby has his pants down and babbles on about his homeless-no-legged-no-armed friend named Matt.
Step 3:Go into the Butthole Kareoke Option and then select The Shah Sleeps In Lee Harvey's Grave
Step 4: Press the Left Arrow in your DVD controller.
Step 5: You will then notice that the moon in the clown's hat will become highlighted. Press Enter.
And there you Have it. A small segment from a very early Butthole Surfers show. I won't tell you whats on it because it's supposed to be a secret. The clown told me so.
