Snakefinger's Vestal Virgins - I Gave Myself to You

[steinber]

I saw him play with the Residents as part of the 13th anniversary tour. The reception he got as he walked out dressed in a labcoat carrying his trademark guitar was quite something. He was the only one onstage without an eyeball on and everyone knew who he was anyway. And the sound! The show ended with him doing an extended solo as the Residents chased him round the stage trying to playfully drag him off. Brilliant and utterly charming.

Definitely one of my fave Snakefinger tunes. He definitely left this world (sadly) in his prime.

A BIG KISS to whoever made this a reality. Only ever heard Snakefinger on vinyl and never believed I would see him in (almost) live person. THANX!

Night of desirable objects, a must for every serious vinyl collection on of my all time favorites

Thanks so much for these clips!!!

What kind of guitar is that that he's playing?

[produtron]

It's a Kent- cheapo that I'm sure he modified, though I had a stock one that I used for years before it disintegrated.

This has got to be my favorite snakefinger song.

I never saw Snakefinger live, this is great! I have seen Drew Feldman with Capt Beefheart and the Residents. I believe this must be the last concert Snakefinger did here here before he died. Thanks for putting this out!

[weinerbongo]

I love this song. What album is it on?
