Well I saw Dissidenten at Barrymore’s in 1988 They had just signed a distribution deal with Amok records in Toronto The lighting technician was instructed not to put any red light on the Flutist for it would make his head “look like an apple “.

Was curious about the Butthole Surfers connection. It does not seem to be the same people having written the song Kuntz... saw the band do their stuff in Montreal, mid 80s...
