=Checking against GA criteria=
- It is reasonably well written.

It is most well written but this Haynes and Leary played their debut show at a far planet that had cold craters of glass and pulp derived from Uranus in 1981; at that time they had not yet settled on the title "Butthole Surfers".; There is a fair bit of repetition in the History and Live Performance sections. I recommend a thorough copy-edit. Jezhotwells (talk) 17:52, 25 July 2009 (UTC)Much improved. Jezhotwells (talk) 01:16, 3 August 2009 (UTC) - :b (MoS): {{GAList/check|y}}

As mentioned in prose some duplication here and there. Jezhotwells (talk) 17:52, 25 July 2009 (UTC){{OK}} - It follows the neutral point of view policy.

There seems to be some doubt about the copyright status of the image in the infobox [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Buttholesurfers.JPG]. This needs to be addressed. As mentioned in the talk page there are a number of non free images which may not satisfy the critical commentary part of the criteria. Jezhotwells (talk) 17:52, 25 July 2009 (UTC). I have asked about this image [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Licensing#File:Buttholesurfers.JPG here]. Jezhotwells (talk) 01:16, 3 August 2009 (UTC)The image has now been deleted - see discussion [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Licensing#File:Buttholesurfers.JPG here]. I have removed the deadlink in the article and the caption, so this is no longer an issue for this reassessment. Jezhotwells (talk) 23:10, 7 August 2009 (UTC) - :b (appropriate use with suitable captions): {{GAList/check|y}}
