The Butthole Surfers - live at the reading festival England August 27th 1993. Taken from TDK Metal HS video8 tape, digitised by me May 29th 2018. I did make a DVD version of this around 2002, but that was an analogue copy from this tape, using the analogue phono output from my camera into a Panasonic standalone DVD, recorder. This version is better, firewire 800 output into Mac Pro again using a firewire 800 input. No adjustments were made to the audio or video. This tape is very luck to have made it to YouTube, because after having sat in drawer for 15 years, I popped it into the video8 player and it instantly tangled up inside the machine, after two attempts I managed to get it to eject, with lots of tape outside of the cassette case. I managed to get the tape back into the case, the fast forward and rewound it many times before I attempted a transfer and it worked. So enjoy this very rare concert, which is finally on YouTube 25 years after it was recorded.
